Dyspraxic Adults

I have a high threshold for pain with things like Heat, Cold and abrasions, but internal pain is awful. I could get a gash on my arm and be fine, but a small stomachache can be debilitating. Also, if someone slaps me on the back (hard) there is excruciating pain.

I've never thought about dyspraxia affecting kissing either .__.
It's just been easy for me. But I may be doing it wrong.

Anyone else do this? I hadn't really noticed it (which is strange, I usually scrutinise my behaviours), but when learning to drive, my mum asked if I would like her to request a female Drivers Education teacher because I connect better with females than males. It was then that I realised that I do, ...

I've only ever been diagnosed with a Fine-MotorSkill delay and then Depression and such. I got a 60. How high is that? It doesn't give you a point of reference or a scale or anything.

I find I'm very good at faking confidence. Though, this does at times make me come off as being cold.

I watch my feet constantly when I walk. When I first noticed this I thought it was because I was shy and can't look people in the eye. When I tried to stop doing this I found myself tripping over my own feet (proprioception and whatnot) I then realised that if I didn't look at my feet, I had no way ...

I'm a bit torn actually. I'm very attracted to the opposite sex and there are certain features that I like best. My girlfriend has next to none of these but I love her very much. I mostly lack physical attraction to her though... But she's great... but still! Ack!

This isn't at all what I thought it'd be...

My left eye focuses better, but my right one picks up more light.

I can't stand touching certain people. It seems to hold no bearing whether or not I like that person though. I'm fine with my mum and dad, but not my sister or brother. My girlfriend is fine and so is this girl in my class, but none of my other friends. I tend to be very touchy with those people tha...

I'll point at that while I am paranoid, I'm always very very relaxed. It might be my medication but I can usually just brush off my worries as being dyspraxic side-effects and leave it at that. Maybe I do that too often xD

When I get really upset, I stutter, but I tend not to get upset.

I wear Crocs, my feet are shaped funny (very wide at the toe) and I don't fit in much else.

I'm definitely paranoid about almost everything, I'm not sure why though.

I've just recently started driving home from school with my permit and I've found that I have a very difficult time feeling the pedals with shoes on. My mum won't let me take them off though. Also, She won't let me use one foot for the gas and one for the break which I would feel much more comfortab...

I'm not that good at bowling, but am undefeatable at tennis.
