  1. In one of my more SpecTaCULaR moments of cack-handedness, I thwacked the front of my ankle* ~so hard~ that It's still numb a minute later.

    Ya'll, if the area bruises it's going to be a DOOZY

    [ * Part of the foot where top of instep becomes erm.. leg ?? ]

  2. @lowqualityfacts my #dyspraxia always made them a nightmare…

    …only worse when i started driving for real…

    …but i had enough self-awareness to tale myself out of the game

  3. Learning #Disability Week: Working with #dyslexia and #dyspraxia

    Senior Paramedic Mark Plant is sharing his experience of living and working with dyslexia and dyspraxia, neurodivergent conditions that can affect reading, writing, organisation and coordination. His experience highlights the importance of understanding, workplace support and speaking up about individual needs.

  4. Honestly I don't know how everyone does it. Writing on my phone is so tiring. I have about forty five minutes blocked out a day to try to catch up on my text messages and it's sometimes not enough. And it's tiring. Part of it is because I have trouble manipulating my phone. The precision needed to type is hard for me. But like also... It's a lot of time! How do people have this time?? What's your secret??

  6. Hahahaha lesson 6 and he’s basically strongly recommended I transfer driving school so I can do an automatic only license 💀 #dyspraxia #driving

  7. So a very positive update - explained it to the instructor, he now is getting better at understanding actual nerves vs just poor motor control. My right foot is cramped from all the work, which means I did a lot! Always a journey. #dyspraxia #driving

  8. So sometimes, I doubt I have dyspraxia because I've had new labels since which explain a lot of the other weirdness. In addition, I try to live a life that works around it.

    This has been massively disproven by a mere few hours in a car with dual controls. I have been told today I need to "take pills" or "weed" to relax (the latter I hope was jokingly, as it's as bad as drink driving!). The instructor is misreading me controlling my body in its own weird way as nerves and clumsiness. I explain, he does not understand. So I probably need to fess up and stop using euphemisms.

    I did initially just explain it as "I'm slow learning physical movements" and "I'm clumsy" and "my brain knows things but it is bad at making my body do things" but it's really hard getting him to understand that this will just be different for me, this is not psychologically caused, and I have the money to keep going, and we can check in over time to see if this is even possible.

    On that note, if anyone has resources in Portuguese about dyspraxia, maybe even as it pertains to driving, would be amazing. I've drafted some notes to go to the school already. It seems my verbal explanations are not enough.

  9. I have been trying to do things in the evening with my hands that aren't doomscrolling and/or being on late work calls. Behold, paint markers and pebbles! This is something I find difficult because I have v poor fine motor control and consistency with my physical control but it has been really rewarding to concentrate on in a low stakes way. Plus, the colours come out so deep and satisfying.

  10. @autistics #ActuallyAutistic i'm working on a #dyspraxia lunch & learn at my work and trying to collect anonymous lived experience testimonials for the event

    since #dyspraxia is not as widely known as other neurodivergent conditions, i only have two so far

    if you are willing to share this poll it be a huge help

    even though the form asks for “Your Name*", entering in any text into the field will allow to be submitted -- anonymity is more than encouraged

  11. Research into MBTI® type, neurodivergence, and neurodiversity - A report from The Myers-Briggs Company [2024]

    This seems to be an interesting and quite recent study that differenciates [in a very respectful way!] between participants that self-diagnosed and those who have an externally validated diagnose.

  12. theconversation.com/people-wit. Don't I know it! I have been feeling very wobbly after my recent fall in a street near my home, & have very nearly fallen several times since in my home. Add a lesion on my left parietal lobe (the cause of my #epilepsy) to my age & the #dyspraxia, & you have the perfect combination, given that the left parietal lobe deals with one's sense of balance.
