Hello Emma.. yeah they always treat dyspraxia like childhood exzema ~ you'll grow out of it one day!! Yeah right! I'm 37 & still got my childhood exzema, dyspraxia & teenage acne LOL... but as you get older, it gets easier in ways of learning the multitude of coping & avioding mechanisms...

I loved lacross at school.. I was always the goalie.. but found something in lacross that really suited my dyspraxia.. perhaps it was the violence LOL (I went to a public girls school!!) ~ well good thing you're at uni ~ doing geography too!! good stuff.. now you're properly diagnosed you 'll be abl...

Hello Mereka~ I'm dead impressed you do loads of dancing.. I love dancing, disco, punk, techno, anything!! but I'm proper rubbish coz I keep toppling over all the time!! I'm glad you never got the stupid lable.. Perhaps if you do loads of dancing you could think of it as a future vocation, coz whene...

I got in touch with as many pals as I could. most were idiots who still had no patience for me.. but some were good & have become good pals.. the worst that can happen is you say good bye again (or yell "I never bloody want to see you again!!!" heh heh) .. best that can happen is you g...

sleep.. oh how I love to sleep!! But too much makes me feel ill!! I used to sleep 12/14 hours easily even when I was doing loads of speed!!! My nephew, who's an emo rock star put on a special emo/grunge ring tome on my phone for an alarm. Its a real hard core shouty thing that ,makes me wake soon en...

I'm 37 years young.. & I'm getting well stuck in LOL ~ been looking for this sort of forum for a looooooooong time!! Was diagnosed at 14, but never told I had a motor problem, just told I was an awkward clumsy child. How rude eh?! but I reasearched 7 years ago & the last 4 have been fantasti...

Me too I'm an ex alchy & speed-feak.. dyspraxia always went away after a few drinks & went away miraculously with the speed.. until I was hooked & useless in many other ways. Like a lot of 70's & 80's & probably from before those times & since ~ I became a typical dyspraxia s...

I've been looking for, no ASKING for suppport for adult dyspraxics for a long time. At last I found you. By accident. I finally went the simple route by tapping in "dyraxia forum" & lo & behold here you all are.. *hurruh!* =o)

LOL about the door frames.. I have actually removed one door in my flat & if it didn't get so damn cold I'd have the others removed too!!!! I spent many years drunk, probably so I didn't have to tell people I wasn't drunk!! Now I'm sober & theres no difference, back to telling people I'm not...

Its a common problem with most of us.. I was diagnosed at 14 & then only found out what dypraxia really was 7 years ago at the age of 30! Not that I wasn't already acutely aware of my problems by then. Having said that in the mean time, my lost years as I affectionatly call them, have served me ...

I'm so happy & relieved to have found you. Hope my tenner helps. xxx
