Re: Which finger is longer?

Finding this post is a bit strange, as a female my testosterone levels are 0.1 which is quite low, I think I remember the Dr saying they should be between 1.0-2.0 or something like that, if I want to take something to rise the levels then I will need to see a specialist about itthey insert something...

Re: Can I speak to someone with Dyspraxia please?

Hi, I'm 47 female and was diagnosed with Dysbraxia and Aspergers, my mother said there was always something different with me since a baby and was really worried about me, when she found out she was dying she wrote all of us children letters and this is what she put in mine with a positive note at t...

Re: Signed off work with stress and borderline depression

Hi Ben, I'm 47 and was diagnosed last year with Dysbraxia and Aspergers, and at the moment I am struggling where work is concerned, I've got to deal with small parts and I'm finding it really hard, the more I stress the worse I am, and I'm always told, not to stress but unfortunately that's my perso...

Re: Changing with age

Thank you all for replying to my post, I'm definitely getting frustrated with myself for not being as quick and nimble as the other girls and I know they watch, one in particular which stresses me even more, I know the more you stress the worse the situation is but trying to tell myself not to stres...

Re: Sudden/overwheming urge to sleep

I'm always tired and have been since I can remember, I struggle every day and it's a constant fight to keep my eyes open through different parts of the day, over the years I've tried different things like vitamins, energy drinks and relaxation CDs and I'm even on iron tablets for my anaemia which do...

Changing with age

Can anyone tell me please if dyspraxia worsens as you get older ? I ask this as I've noticed I'm struggling handling small things under pressure ( my job requires me to be quick in building a medical pack that needs to be wrapped in different sizes ) also my muscles ache and becomes tired quite easi...

Re: Does anyone feel patronised at work?

I don't feel patronised in work I feel intimidated by the work I do and by certain persons, I'm quite quiet and I don't like talking bad about people and I never have much to say but there is this one girl who is about 20 years younger then me and she is quite bitchy and aggressive in the way she ta...

Re: Just diagnosed age 45

Thank you Moot, I'm glad I found this fora, to read other peoples experience with Dysbraxia will hopefully help me understand and come to grips with my own.

Re: Little experiment; What do you all do?

I like Art but I'm not a natural, faces and using pastel pencils are my favourites but would love to have lessons in painting. I've bought a sewing machine and attended a course but that's gone quiet now. I've taken up crocheting and have done two blankets, one for my cousin and one for myself, I wo...

Re: Hypersensitivity

I don't like bright lights they make my eyes water so much that I need to close them, not good when your driving in winter sun and the ground is reflecting the light coz it's wet from the rain, can be quite scary even with sunglasses. I don't like strong smells, especially perfum in shops, it gives ...

Re: You know you're dyspraxic when

You know when your Dysbraxia when your team leader is standing right in front of you and tells you to do something and you totally do something else making her yell, no not that and when you go and do what you think she said for the second time, she yells again and says no, that's when someone else ...

Re: Just diagnosed age 45

Thank you Tom for welcoming me to the fora and for letting me know how to go back and edit what I have written. It did come to me as a shock, I expected the doctor to agree with my findings of Dysbraxia ( which she did ) but I didn't expect her to say ASD and Asperger even though I can see why she s...

Re: overthinking things

I'm always over thinking things, I analise everything I say and see if I could have said it differently, I worry whether it has offended that person, apparently my sons often tell me I say things which sounds a bit aggressive and my face is always frowning as I'm talking to them, my jokes come acros...
