Showers!!
Does anyone find the first moments getting into the shower super uncomfortable and feel almost cold, even if the water is hot?? It occurred to me the other day this might be another sensory thing 🤔.

Re: Clothing that you hate
I hate tight things around my waist like tight leggings, but equally hate any trousers that are too low, like on my hips. I also don't like labels. Sleeves on clothes annoy me. Even my glasses behind my ears drive me mad. I hate the feel of glasses on my face as well. I don't like hair bands behind ...

I'm knackered all the time I only have to do about 3 hours work!! Think it's because my brain has to work so hard.

Re: Chopping and peeling
Yeah me too it's a pain. If I'm tired and don't concentrate I'm liable to chop my fingers off.

Re: cannot think
It's so hard and I think sometimes I don't realise how people without dyspraxia see things, and then when think about, and how it probably comes much easier to others - sequencing. Very frustrating... For me it's like going round the houses to get to the same conclusion as someone else.

Swimming is the one sporty thing I am actually quite good at! My husband was shocked when he realised I can swim he didn't know!

Re: Social Anxiety
I am so socially anxious. I often leave work late so I don't have to face anyone on the way out.
