Dyspraxic Adults

When I am listening to people talking there is often a time delay from when they finish talking to when my brain hears what they have said. they think I am being ignorant by not replying when it actually takes a while for me to hear ...

Hi, I have been involved with horses for over 30 years and about 15 years ago trained as an Alexander Technique Teacher, which was a three year fill time training. since then I have been teaching the technique to riders and others( usually with physical pain and difficulties). I found from doing the ...

Hi Emm, I am 59 years old and escalators haven't gotten any friendlier, weird isn't it how they can be so tricky, the going down is so strange I just don't quite know how to put one foot on and take the weight off the other one so of course I hesitate and that makes it worse and if I am not cautious ...

Hi, I do have trouble getting the shopping in the bag, I fumble around, my coordination seems to go to pieces at the checkout and I get nervous and self conscious before I even get there. I have been making myself go out the self checkouts to become more proficient at it but of course between ...

Hi Adam, I can relate to what your saying, I cannot walk in a straight line, I bump into things, trip etc. , my friends call me Crash Bandicoot, I often hurt myself and others but....

Hi, I have been drawing since I was small, drawing was always more pleasurable than words or numbers, now I am immersing myself in Art, charcoal drawings, acrylic painting and hand built ceramics.

I can relate to the time watch thing I have never gotten better at digital time reading I have to count to work out the time, and for some strange reason I put the odd letters in the middle of other words, actually Ithink they put themselves there, they seem to get there of their own accord.

I think you are amazing just to be cycling to work, I am afraid I dont ride a bike or even consider riding a bike in car traffic or other cyclists, I would not survive. I just could not do it. I cannot be aware of the traffic and ride the bike at the same time( and snow, you said snow) how do you do ...

Oh yes, I know I repeat myself an awful lot and so wish I didnt, it made me smile when I read your post. If I wasn't aware of my repeating things already, others have made sure that I know I do this. Sounds like its the same for you as well. (I am just making sure they heard me thats all, or its so ...

I can so relate to the bouts of excitment and passion ,I try to tone myself down for the sake of others but I do appreciate the delight and joy I get from the things that move and excite me. I realise that when I get this way I am almost jumping out of my skin, (hopping on the spot) but hey I am so ...

I worry sometime about getting so tired, I manage to live an energetic life but I get so tired, I sometimes feel like I am too exhausted to breath I have always been this way and am only now realising that I do pretty well to work hard and exercise ( love walking) considering this factor I thought ...

Hi, I have lots of trouble with clothes I cant stand anything being too tight, every tag ever made seems to feel like its burrowing throught my skin and I cant ignore it. As for swallowing that is an ongoing thing, I need about two glasses of water to get a few pills down They goes side ways a lot ...
