help.
I went to the doctors today to try and get diagnosed. I couldnt sleep most of the night, I felt worried that this might be a repeat on when I was younger, where they couldn't understand why things were the way the are. I seem to feel like getting a diagnosis would put my mind at ease, so I would fee...

Re: Fear of the doctor
The best advice I can give is take a few deep breaths and if you forget bring the paper with you, and read it word from word or give it to your doctor to read. Keep telling yourself that the doctors job is to HELP you, not to hurt... I'm struggling with trying to explain my problems with dyspraxia, ...

tips when I see the doctor
Ever since I've researched dyspraxia I have told myself that I need to talk to a doctor about this, that I need them to diagnosis me with something. I need to know what's wrong with me.. I go through phases where i'm ok for a few days than all of the sudden i'm reminded of how there something wrong ...

Re: ever seen a real-life dyspraxic?
no, I've never met anyone who looks like they could have it, or anyone whose said they have it. I kinda wish I knew someone else with it... would love to have a close friend who understands. Being up here in Canada it seems to be unlikely, since its not well understood or known.

Re: How did you find out about the Dyspraxic Adults Forum?
I can't remember, It was either searching "Dyspraxia in Adults" on google nd this forum came up there, or from the dyspraxia foundation.
