Re: Could mild dyslexia actually be dyspraxia?

Thanks Tom. Personally I'm becoming OK with saying "I'm 99% certain I'm..." It sounds though like my girlfriend really wants me to have anything else physical ruled out. So for that reason I'll talk to my doctor. The worst that can happen is he says in his best Bugs Bunny voice "Eh, could be."

Could mild dyslexia actually be dyspraxia?

I was just reading a post by someone who read 10:05 as 10:50. I do that all the time with numbers. Heck, sometimes I'll look at a number and think a different number. Sometimes but not too often I'll transpose letters but I'm more apt to switch word order or read wrong words. (All when reading, that ...

Re: Video games

I haven't played Guild Wars 2 in a dog's age. That's another fun one. Is it F2P now or still B2P? I was an expansion or 2 behind a few years ago. I don't know if there have been any more released since then.

Re: Video games

RPGs are my favorite genre of game. On the PC I play The Elder Scrolls Online from time to time, depending on whether I feel like subscribing or not. Runes of Magic is a great F2P game that doesn't require too much coordination. It's really great if you like crafting. The only downside is it pretty ...

Is it worth getting an official diagnosis this late in life?

I have an appointment with my PCP (that's what we call the GP in the US) on the 19th. I was thinking of talking to her about the possibility that I have dyspraxia. But I'm 54 and on disability for other reasons so it's not like I have an employer to worry about. Other than being tested for any ...

I'm a Gen Xer who loves to write poems and short stories, compose songs, read things about quantum physics for fun, create ...
