Dyspraxic Adults

Also told him about this forum and he is going to have a look so hopefully he will be able to have a look at some of the things you guys write and he will see that he is not the only one who has trouble learning to cope with his dyspraxia, infact he insists he is ok and has'nt got it !! just dont t...

Cool. It may be a symptom of other Neurodiversity. ADHD has a huge co-morbidity with Spraxyness. I'm ADHD and If i try and concentrate too hard my brain just stops working. Filling in forms is a no go - my vision blurs and i can't actually read the form. Currently making a formal complaint against m...

headaches, blurred vision, pins & needles if trying to concentrate hard on doing anything fiddly? Is he on Ritalin or any other prescription drug? I was on ritalin for 10 years, these were the signs of my brain frying itself slowly... Don't mean to scare - I was on way more then than is legally...

Sounds like my life ambition a couple of years ago. Esteemable things build self esteem. Esteem is the balance for arrogance and selfishness. I'm massively arrogant - but it's kept largely in check by an active attempt to do some good in this world. It starts with making my bed in the morning. Washi...

Hate to put it quite like this, but it looks like a genuine case of 17-yearold-itis. I was there quite recently! I find dyspraxia a real pain in the arse for finding work - the organisational side of things is difficult. Sometimes I get really angry and throw a tizzy because I'm just not getting my ...

If someone gives me a set of tasks to do or instuctions i sometimes find myself asking them to say it more clearly so i can understand what it is they want me to do I get people to write down a list of what they want me to do. I tick 'em off as I finish them, hand the ticked list back to them to le...

Dyspraxic and ADHD and ODD.
Also Alcoholic/Drug addict.
Oh, and Gay

I find a HUGE number of people in the queer community are dyspraxic/dyslexic/have aspergers
Also, a large number of ex-ritalin users in recovery from substance abuse...

Oh, i try laughing.
Sometimes, it's beyond funny though!

Oh Lord. Not a good week so far. I managed to drill my jumper on Saturday while putting up some shelves. Silly. I cut the tip of my thumb off on Sunday while cutting some veg for a ratatouille. That hurt. A lot. Having tripped up a couple of times yesterday, I got home (a miracle unto itself!). And ...

I assumed it to be sciatica. It's not.
Basically I got told to stop whinging...

I have had a few accidents, but I also have full armour kits. I adknowledge that if i'm going to ride 10000 miles a year (which I usually do - the nationwide average is 3000) in all weathers including snow, i'm going to need proper kit and a detirmination to succeed. 125's were lethal to me, my bala...

I also get this,especially when standing for a long time,it's a pain in the neck and I'm also convinced it's down to the muscles in my leg,especially in my left leg which definantley gets the worst of the pain.

Sometimes, I think my CEO can achieve more - and as I said - if he feels reproached, he'll check to see if he should. I made it quite clear to him when I took the role on that i had communicative difficulties, and that his checking of these things was essential. That way, he can't sue for bullying a...

There seem to be a lot of topics on learning to drive cars, but none on motorbikes! I'm a total two wheel buff - love them to bits. When I was learning to drive a car, I could never put my left hand and get the handbrake/gearstick. Despite having quite muscley legs (the only part of me with ANY musc...

Hey, welcome. I'm new here myself, but it seems nice here! I have hell reminding people to 'check their priviledge'. No, I can't clean the flat. There's expensive crockery that needs to be moved. Get rid of the breakables and i'll do the rest. No, boss. I can't fit 100 things into my day and remembe...
