Dyspraxic Adults

Hi!
My name is Fiona, I'm 19 and work as a cleaner/caterer/activities instructor at a Christian outdoor centre. I have an unofficial diagnosis for dyspraxia but am still refusing to go to my doctor to see about getting officially diagnosed for many reasons.
Lets see... what interesting stuff can I tell you? I have 40 scars in various locations, most of which I've acquired in the past year. I enjoy making random videos which have occasionally made it online but mostly they just hide out on my laptop. Oh and I spend an unhealthy amount of time on my laptop (for example it's now almost 2am...at midnight I came on to send an email...opps).

Welcome

What activities do you teach?

I mainly lead archery, low ropes and inflatables but I'm also trained to do golf, disc golf, orienteering and trail cycling. I can also rescue people who get stuck on the tree climb.

And yet I fail to be able to walk from one side of the center to the other without colliding with 2 door frames and tripping up on at least one flight of stairs

Welcome, sounds like you belong here with the rest of us! Door open and we still hit the frame lol!

Hi fiona,

welcome to the forum.

LOL about the door frames.. I have actually removed one door in my flat & if it didn't get so damn cold I'd have the others removed too!!!! I spent many years drunk, probably so I didn't have to tell people I wasn't drunk!! Now I'm sober & theres no difference, back to telling people I'm not drunk. Yeah they don't believe me still. Oh what fun!!

I did get some proper insoles made & its made my balance a lot better.. occational yoga &/or karate help enormously too..

And push/pull signs. Is it just me or are they ALL wrong?!
