Do you mean county or country? If country then wow, he is much more capable than me since I can't live independently in either another county or country on my own.

Not everyone has all the specific signs or 'symptoms' of Dyspraxia. I'm the total opposite on several of your points, yet I'm sure there are plenty of things you have no trouble with that I am abysmal at doing.

If I do successfully get a job, that means I have to take different taxis/cabs everyday home since I CAN'T DRIVE of course. Is that safe?

People probably have a wide range of experiences and I strongly suspect that 90%+ of Jobcentre+ staff would say apply anything you feel qualified for.

I'm not a citizen of the UK so I've never been to a Jobcentre Plus(I'm a Malaysian btw :) ) Did any of you go to a Jobcentre Plus and what jobs did they recommend are best fo...

I just did a quiz. I know some quizzes are not very reliable but I just want to know what all of you think about it. https://neuroknowhow.com/dyspraxia/adult-dyspraxia-questionnaire/ My result was; Your responses suggest that your chances of being assessed as currently having DCD/Dyspraxia are: &quo...

I read in another post in which you said that you don't drive and that a kitchen is like a disaster waiting to happen. That's also true about me. What kind of jobs do you recommend I go for?Are there any particular jobs I should avoid? I'm thinking of getting a job as a copywriter in an advertising ...

I want to get a job but I greatly fear that I might run into some problems, like being a slow learner and have problems picking up skills quickly. What is my next step? Should I consult a Dyspraxia expert or straight ahead go and get a job?What type of job should I get?Are there any types of jobs th...
