Dyspraxic Adults

My way is regular breaks and lots of tea! If all else fails going out on my bike or going climbing help, or whatever your get away from life hobby is!! Also I have a close friend with DCD and when I'm down or stuck, I chat with her and I get a renewed sense of vigour! As she told me once all you nee...

I use a gps and cross reference it to a map. Tends to work well, but I find it hard to take info from a map and apply it to the terrain.
If only OS did google street view on their paper maps…

I've got a sat nav, but I tend to pointing the general direction and hope for the best!! I always wear my watch on my left wrist, but I forget my watch today, oops… I've driven about twenty miles by myself so far, but that's only if I have to. The rest of the time is with a passenger. It helps to ha...

I did that on the tube myself, my friend and I were trying to get into London and we got on the wrong train!! Luckily he pulled me off and onto the right one before I got too lost! You are not alone!!

I just did my driving test and after fifteen months of lessons, I passed first time!!! It's quite weird driving by oneself though…

Make about five copies, the first two are ruff, the next three are to correct grammar. On the fifth one make it neater and easier to read, so when you come fill out the actual form all you have to do is focus on writing, and you'll be fine!!

It's great to have new members!!

I bite my nails and the skin too, ends up bleeding quite a bit. I normally use a pen, or bounce my leg up and down if Im sitting. I also flex my fingers I'm walking. The list is pretty endless!!

Truly I'm an introvert, but I put out that I'm an extrovert at school to keep people off my back! Only my close friends know that it's just a show for the masses!!

I have a seven year old labradoodle, he's great since I can tell him everything that is stressing me out and he'll always listen and never tells anyone!!

I got my tangle in the end, it hasn't left my side since. The best £2.50 I've ever spent! I used a stress ball for a while, but my chemistry teacher confiscated it since 'I shouldve been working'!! But since getting a tangle people tend not to ask questions since they know it's there to help me. But...

I have a close friend who is dyspraxic, I think the best thing we do for each other is we are there for each other. We both understand each other and that is something amazing. She also helps me with DORE and I help her do her programme. The best dfeeling if you are stressed out is having someone wh...

I like running but only outside. I go trekking a lot but my passion is mountain biking, crazy I know but it's strange the concentration clears my mind and it's the only time I concentrate on only one thing! It's a little dangerous and I have a few scars but it's quite a laugh. I have a dyspraxic fri...

Hi there! I'm 17 and I'm also learning to drive, I passed my theory test and now I'm looking to do my practical. I was given a copy of MAP by a friend who passed her driving test. I never used it, I got the DSA DVDS which cover all the topics and I studied hard. The worst bit is hazard perception bu...

Corfu - Sidari very nice place for a family holiday and locals are friendly (I recommend the olive grove, lagoon and sunny corfu hotels and for food I recommend the three little pigs (go around 8 as they do fire dancing at about half past) for dinner and B.E.D for breakfast. I go there nearly every...
