A few weeks earlier, I found out that my boyfriend has dyspraxia.
We are both 24 years old, Ive got my own appartment and he's living allready together with his family.
His litte cousins were at his house and asked for this school certificates (to compare the notes).
As I wanted to put the file back into the shelf, I found a page from a doctor / it was written for the armed forces (so its maybe the reason why it be there).
And I read that he's got dyspraxia and some problems with "ticks".
I'm honest - I had to google what is dyspraxia.
And it wasn't new for me... We are now 2 years a couple.. and I ever felt "there is something wrong with him"..
He couldn't speak very well, he is often gravel,
he ... I don't know how to explain but he hadn't any control about his body, often he makes some strange moves with his arms ..
Also he couldn't do things with his hands, like button up himself..
So I ever felt... Why I does this? But as I read and read this weeks, this should be really the answer.

Hi
More likely tics - meaning involuntary movements.
A tick is an insect.
Some dyspraxic people have speech difficulties.
Some tasks like buttoning clothing or putting together flat pack furniture can be a challenge but aren't necessarily impossible.
Too often we feel unnecessary shame and/or frustration but dyspraxia does not make us useless.
