Well here we go.. i'm twenty one year old lass.
I got dignose with dyspraxia and dyscalcuila 4moths ago, I always new i had somthing "diffrent" about me, even after having many councilers and telling doctors about this (also my parents..) for MANY years!
Many people thought I was stuipd because of my speach,memory and many of other reasons, even my parents have said " your not achdemic enought to go to university". Well I proved them wrong, i've just been excepted to york uni for nursing.
I would love to understand more about my dyspraxia and to chat to people who go threw the daily struggle and higns of this condtion

Hello and welcome to the forum.
Congratulations with getting into York University - York's a great city to be a student in (I didn't go to York University, instead I went to York St John) and had three brilliant years living and studying in the city.coll10 wrote:Well I proved them wrong, i've just been excepted to york uni for nursing.

Hi!
I'm new here too, and have had a similar experience - at 22 years old, I've just now learned of this condition which could explain *so* many things that I've tried to seek help from doctors about, but all the little pieces on their own didn't mean enough to get a diagnosis.
Congrats on getting into uni, and doing what you want to do in spite of all the negative voices in your life. I'm studying online at the moment doing a BA, and have found it challenging - though not enough to make me give up :p The hardest part for me is keeping on top of deadlines (hard with a memory like a sieve!).
Best of luck with your studies
