Hi I am new

Post Reply New Topic

I was misdiagnosed as having ADHD as a child
and now some doctors suggested dyspraxia though I haven't officially diagnosed
I have one child who is typical and one on the spectrum who also has another issue
both I adore

So many questions
What is dyspraxia
Our children (have to give my wife credit) are an 11 year old son and a 15 year old daughter (who came first)
How old are yours if you feel comfortalbe sahring?

Dyspraxia is a disorder where the brain signals fire incompletely to body parts
its effects motter skills, grammar
it runs in families that have autism
its often diagnosed as autism as autism in the US
or misdiagnosed as adhd
its a subtle disorder

i have heard of dyspraxia through my interests but i did not know about how it is.

have you consider getting yourself professionally evaluated? i believe i have also been misdiagnosed, with autism, considering the shadiness of the person who evaluated me and, others who said it was impossible i was autistic. (whatever that means)

are some symptoms of dyspraxia, poor gross motor control? i admit i've been/am real clumsy but i work on it.

and well, i don't have any kids but welcome to the club!
