Dyspraxic Adults

I am quite lucky with the fact that I have had supportive work colleagues and did have a supportive management team. my first care setting was a nursing home which I didn't do well in and I honestly thought it was because I was supporting elderly people that I did not do very well. (very stupid) so ...

I know it is my decision at the end of the day and my decision is that I would love to continue into this sector but I find it impossible to do so. Is it possible to even consider studying Social Care when I have got fired three times(!!!!) 1) for forgetting most things 2) getting lost, not remember...

I am glad it has healed. Did sound very painful. Good luck with the rest of the physio and hope the weather becomes better for better walking conditions. I have no idea what has over come the weather during the last month or so.

Hmmmm you know if you are not double jointed, is it usual for your fingers to kind of cramp or hurt after about two minutes especially when typing? (general) ouch, I am sorry. was that a while ago or is your shoulder still recovering? am lucky that I do not fall over, just bump into people/ get in t...

That is unfortunate. I thought my feet were a hassle being wide and bigger then my younger brothers. Honestly thought shops would cater to all sorts of clothes and shoes for the individual. For me I love New Look because they do shoes for the wider feet so could try and look their? I mean obviously ...

I do not have a problem with it my self as if I did I would be able to feel they are the wrong way round, (though with people around this can sometimes be quite hard), its with putting shoes on people I find most difficult. I did not know there was a curve going in and they would be pointing in rath...

To Alleycat Thank you. I also worked in a nursery though this was part of my work experience. I tried to avoid the children's laces/shoes like the plague. I always went to the ones that had Velcro on and tried to take my time so I wouldn't get bombarded with shoes. I think the staff though I was a l...

Hello,
Again I was wondering if something else, this time not being able to tell which shoe goes on the left and right food is connected, I mean without tell tell signs such as Velcro. I have always wanted to know this and feel like I can know know so yay!

Thank you for answers in advance

Again, I feel lucky when I read some of these posts. I am sorry to hear about your parents or I guess your dads negative reaction. Me and my dad have a very solid relationship but when I told him about my firing and horrible work history I eventually told him I got told I could be Dyspraxic. He dism...

Oh no I meant that's you as in he was talking about me, sorry I tend to talk like that while explaining about something. no he isn't, though he can be late in going to places, he gets rather angry if I accidently trip over a wire or forget to get something for him when I go shopping "how hard i...

I know and I am sure many people will benefit from the video, kind of like I did in a small way. Haha i get that, I just meant to say there are so many films or information about children it was nice to see something about adults, though saying that I did the one about this guy who explained about D...

This video was/is on another thread, so you might not get as many views as you like, but then again you might.
I like the video, it provided good information about adults and not so much children which is always an added bonus if you are an adult

Reading through some peoples experiences, where I live must be quite tolerable. I have had people (Managers, Collages and maybe even friends and teachers) who must think there is something not quite right. I even had someone directly come up to me and say "what is wrong with you" and a few...

The last film I saw at the cinema was Toy Story 3 and on DVD Adam. Both were really good and emotional at the end.

haha, that would have been interesting to watch, when I read the 1st part I was thinking you had like a taser gun or something that you used to shoot down the police officer, but was relieved and was smiling as I read the 2nd part, maybe the police aren't so bad as they saw the funny side. :) A dang...
