Is it a #dyspraxic thing to always bite your tongue and lips when eating?

As a #Dyspraxic, #Neurodivergent author with several other chronic issues, it gives me optimism and hope to see this. I want 2023 to be the year of representation rising, because strong representation gives other disabled people hope for what they can do

For years the only #Dyspraxic I knew was, well...me, so that sense of kinship & community is special to me.

I am #Dyspraxic so sometimes I struggle with complex movement-based instructions. When that happens, I *am* listening; I usually understand the general idea of what you're saying, but my body is a bit unsure of what to do about it.

I am immersed in the #Dyspraxia community's events and conversations and I am also a #dyspraxic #Neurodivergent person. Not only am I on the board of trustees of @DyspraxicMe@twitter.com, but I collaborate regularly with @DyspraxicAlly@twitter.com + @DyspraxiaMag@twitter.com.

I am also the author of a @JKPBooks@twitter.com novel released in the fall of 2022, which uses elements of my personal story + journey as a #dyspraxic person to teach people about coping + living with #Dyspraxia.

Hate to see a fellow dyspraxic spilling her drink this new years eve

When I think about it, I realize this is the same approach I have taken as a #Dyspraxic person with every movement or motor skills task I have mastered.

Tiddlywinks, a game that is a giant nightmare for #Dyspraxic folks because you are flicking one plastic token on another one to try & hit a target by gravity alone.

I was so much fuelled by the powerful desire to be the change I want in the world: more #Dyspraxic & #neurdivergent representation. And I loved every moment of it.

#ChronicMigraine #chronicpain #AddisonsDisease #adrenalinsuffiency #chronicfatigue #Dyspraxic #dyslexic most of the time it feels like it’s to much and all pilled up on top of me like rocks. I hate not being able to work, clean and tidy the house do the art I love, declitter, visit friends. My life is full of cancellations and drop outs. I save my energy to love my hubby walk my doggos, cuddle my cat, do a little art, and visit friends close by and have coffee. That’s my life.

A graphic I created recently disclosing reasonable adjustments I have often asked for as a #Dyspraxic #Neurodivergent person.

Because I changed server I lost my introduction post, so here it is.

I'm 37 years old, Dutch, and autistic (yes, I am double blunt, deal with it haha). I'm also dyspraxic. I love to knit, am still finding out who I am, and I seem to always read. I game a lot too, and I play and sometimes DM D&D.

My #introduction post: I'm #Autistic & was diagnosed with "hyperactivity" before #ADHD existed in the DSM. I self-diagnosed in my 20s, back in the early 2000s, but only got an official diagnosis (privately, as the NHS in my area was useless for AFAB adults) in January 2020. In addition, I'm #dyspraxic and #dyscalculic too.

I'm #disabled and #ChronicallyIll - my main diagnoses are #PoTs , #CentralSleepApnea , #Endometriosis , #InterstitialCystitis and #HidradenitisSuppurativa (among others).

As well as being #ActuallyAutistic , I'm an #atheist , a #humanist and #demisexual , #bisexual and #nonbinary .

I love the #Marvel character #TheWinterSoldier and the actor Sebastian Stan, #Rats , #knitting , #crochet , #tunisiancrochet, #writing and anything #medicine or #scientific . #Learning is definitely a #spin (and clearly I love hashtags too 😂).

If I say something that seems off, please just ask me to clarify. I always try to say exactly what I mean, but that doesn't always translate in reality.

I have a bio that's only meant to attract not avoid (if you like my posts, follow me, hello) and an open account for the first time in years. Elon made things worse but Twitter always had problems with trolls & bigots.

The biggest way my #dyspraxia is affecting me right now is the affect its having on my sleep. Due to the way my brain processes stuff it is still ticking away instead of shutting off for the night.

Things are pretty stressful at the moment and I'm struggling with anxiety & it's a vicious circle- less sleep= more anxious, more anxious=harder to sleep and so on.

#Introductions

Hi, I'm Dan.

I'm a special needs educator & at the moment am *finally* working to qualify as a teacher. It's complicated but most people would say I'm qualified in every way other than the piece of paper!

I'm also dyspraxic & I'll probably be talking about dyspraxia and general neurodivergent issues here. #dyspraxia #dyspraxic #neurodivergent

Also big into films so there'll be lots of movie chat here too. #film #films #movie #movies
