Walking into walls?

Post Reply New Topic

I have the same problem, bumpting into things. But another weird thing happens to me when I'm walking somewhere. If I start to focus really intently on something--like an idea or an errand I need to run--something entirely unrelated to the scenery or the sidewalk or the people--I will trip and maybe even fall. Its like a little switch in my brain shut off for a second, then went back on.

I'm very clumsy, and to make things worse I always bump myself where it hurts most - bones (elbows, knees, doesn't matter). I also tilt my head/body to the right, I didn't know others do so as well I just assumed it's because of my scoliosis.

gosh i didn't realise so many people would do it too. i've been worried about it for quite a while

wow that's so strange. My mum always said that as a baby I wouldn't let anyone hug me apart from one particular aunt and i always rock from side to side when i'm sitting down or am on one of those spinny office chairs. I usually don't even realise i'm doing it until someone makes a comment or i suddenly become self aware after i've been doing it a while. and i used to be super-sensitive to sound. like I'd always have the tv on the lowest setting and if other people started to watch they'd say they couldnt hear a thing and turn it up to a normal level, which i couldnt stand

sometimes i can just be standing still and just randomly lose my balance and stumble abit

'm not great with convos whilst dricing either mechanime. Once my instructor was talking to me and i was concentraiting so much on what to say that when she told me to 'move over abit' i actually steered towards the oncome traffic rather than move out of their wayand more to my side of the road (like she intended).
oh and to the person who said they can'r deal with tests- i got so bad on my first one that the test man made me pull over at one point to check if i was ok lol. i didnb't reaslise my anxiety was showing that bad and just kind of nodded abit sheepishly
