Dyspraxic Adults

I have no idea where to put this as there is no obvious place for it (that i can see at least), but how do you upload an avatar on the forum? I saved a picture a size within the requirements, then uploaded it to my photobucket account, copied the URL and then pasted the URl into the upload avatar se...

Hi Saphyra, thanks for the reply/welcome ^_^v !

I wouldn't worry too much about the other stuff, i tend to waffle on a lot sometimes .

Kikki's Delivery Service. Its a Japanese anime film by the legendary Hayao Miyazaki- such a good feel-good movie, i would totally recommend it! It really makes you feel positive about life, like you can go out and do anything and that we actually do live in a good world. Even though i'm an adult, i ...

My stance on religion;

Religion: Not convinced by any of them.

I would describe myself as agnostic rather than Atheist though.

Yes i liked that one too . Here's a Carlsburg advert i liked a lot (the one with the Starlings) ;

My hobbies; 1. Fish keeping. I have 150gallon tank (6ft), 1 100gal tank (5ft), 1 30gal tank (3ft) and a quarantine/hospital tank. I keep a variety of tropical freshwater community fish (mostly all small fish varieties but i have a few big fish). I also have a big goldfish pond outside (24ft long) wi...

On the plus side though, there were a few positives; 1. I had spent such a vast amount of my attention on Vicky for so long that over time i had completely neglected all my over friendships. Once i cut Vicky off from my life i suddenly realized what a big part she had come to play in it and i sudden...

For me personally, my experiences concerning judge of character; I lived in Somerset for 7 and a half years and when i first moved there with my guy i was 17 years old and completely unfamiliar with the area. However i very quickly made friends in the first couple of weeks there and out of all the p...

^ People do change (for the better & the worse) and i think its probably more of a case that previously these personality traits were small scale but more recently they've developed to an extent where they're now much more noticeable. Also, if you aren't present in situations where your friends ...

It can be pretty hard doing day-to-day living with the fatigue but thankfully i don't suffer from it all the time (i have good weeks & bad weeks), but when its bad i can get very stressed as i worry about being able to keep up with all my responsibilities/commitments. Sometimes i can get through...

^ Oh i do the whole food fad/obsession thing too! It applies to pretty much every drink/food (particularly alcohol). When it comes to alcohol, when i first started going to the pub my first drink was Cider and from then afterwards i always drank Cider. Then a friend introduced me to WKD Blue and i l...

Amongst other symptoms, i suffer from fatigue. I've heard that this can be one of the many symptoms of Dysphraxia, does anyone else suffer from fatigue? Sometimes my fatigue can be very strong, with me falling asleep for hours after only 4 hours work. I also get very bad post eating tiredness when ...

I suffer from sleeping problems. Most nights i struggle to "mentally switch off"- no matter how tired my body is sometimes my brain just doesn't want to switch off and i have to lie there for hours waiting to go to sleep before sleep finally envelops me. Once asleep everything is great but...

I am 26 as well and i still have to make a conscious effort to tell left from right (i use the "L" shape left hand trick, but it still involves looking at my hands for a moment to make sure that my left hand is really my left hand not my right one).

1. When unwinding or falling asleep in generally i rotate one of my feet round & round. 2. When eating something that contains different ingredients like a chunky vegetable soup or mixed bean salad i tend to eat the ingredients in a particular order. 3. I take a very long time to get comfortable...
