Hello everyone I am new here
I just recently been discovering I have dyspraxia. I had a feeling that I have had when I was young but I was never diagnosed. I feel like as an adult you don't get much support for this stuff. Like I'm order to get a formal assessment I have to pay 900 pounds for it. I had to ask the NHS for funding and awaiting for that. But it has been affecting my mental health. I got fired over jobs because of this. I also struggled to do sports because my coordination and learning how to drive. I feel very hopless.

Hi Keven
Feeling hopeless is sadly not uncommon and getting support is sadly way more difficult than it should be
If you're currently employed and your employer Is progressive it may be worth asking them or a Union if they can help with costs of assessment.
Do hope your efforts to get NHS to fund bear fruit.
