Dyspraxic Adults

Hi Joy Thank you for your reply. Yes it is expensive, but I felt the benefits far outweighed the expense, because the Demartini is life changing. I can't put into words how effective it is as I'll be accused of being a little too evangelical, probably you'll have to talk others who have done the pro...

Joy, it cost me just over £2,000 pounds, (I'm paying in installments) yes it's expensive, but it's worth every penny. I would have paid more, the profound effect this course has made on my ife is nothing compared how I was over the past 5 years, I am free from anxiety, I know how to cope with life's...

Thanks CaptainLudd The 10 week course is a Foundation course that helps you to utilise tools to help yourself to overcome anxiety, so it's not a quick fix solution, but it certainly clears out blocks that are hindering your life. All I can say I definately feel different and now have the tools to pr...

Joy, when I was introduced to the Method that is exactly what I said, it's too good to be true. I have had previously been in therapy for over 10 years, and had been on antidepressants for a number of years, so as I said before I was very skeptical about whether the Demartini method would work, but ...

One of the things we suffer from as Dyspraxics is depression and anxiety, caused by our fustration to deal with certain aspectics of our disability.I'm sure many of us have tried different forms of therapy, antidepressants and counselling which has helped us with our difficulties, some of it has wor...

PhilB I currently work part time for an international academic publisher, I noticed my company printed many handbooks for children with dyspraxia, dyslexia and dyscalculia, but currently there is nothing for adults with Dyspraxia. I think there is a real need here and I talked to my commissioning Ed...

Hello Everyone I would like your thoughts on how would you feel if somebody wrote a study skills or Research methods handbook for dyspraxic adults in higher education. I had many study skills books, but I didn't think they were helpful, because they were written from a non-dyspraxic point of view. I...

I wanted to start a blog for a long while now, as I wanted to chart my journey from beginning to end, as I said in previous posts that I wanted to gain my PhD after being so let down by my previous University, because I have this disability. I feel doing this will be very cathartic and therapeutic. ...

I had my MPhil viva last week and passed, I'm very grateful to my new supervisor who was very supportive,, throughout the writing up process. I'm now preparing a research proposal for the PhD that I want to do and I'm seeking Dyspraxic friendly individuals to help me in my journey to complete a PhD ...

Hi there You're panicking and a little anxious. You just need to be a little organised to get through everything. first things first, organise a timetable, where you do 1 hour a day learning your Holland and Barratt homework, then take a break for 1 hour and take out your books for your personal tra...

I am an INFJ.

I've taken Myers Briggs at University and I totally agree with my personality type

Hi Rowangerry Welcome to the forum. I was seriously thinking of doing a PhD in dyscalculia or dyspraxia, but I changed my mind and want to do it something I feel very passionate about and that is natural products research. I'm still searching for a good disability friendly second supervisor. I will ...

Hi AlleyCat I feel your fustration with higher education. I think disabled students get a raw deal, especially with hidden diasbilities. I seriously think there should be a conference for Lecturers, pointing out areas how they can help individuals with dyspraxia, dyscalculia, dyslexia etc. Luckily a...

Hi David I think Tim Francis is a member of the forum now and I belief a number of the forum members have been assessed by him, thats why there is a topic about him. As regards Dr Capelletti, most of us have dual diagnoses in dyspraxia and dyscalculia and she is aware of the forum as well as the off...

Hi Alleycat I'm still very upset by the way my ex supervisor treated me. I had problems in my first year of my PhD. I had terrible problems with Maths. i couldn't even do basic maths calculations and was really struggling, at the time I didn't know what the condition was was for poor maths skills an...
