Dcd/dyspraxia has similar traits to autism. I get both physical and occupational therapy for it (and autism). Barring that, I would suggest reading up on it. There's online resources. Like with autism a lot of it focuses on kids, but it's still informative. There's a couple of good youtube vids about it too.
Is anyone here familiar with dcd and how to treat it?
I've read about it before. It's basically not being able to control the ammount of presure you put on things. Like EzraS, Said. Occupational therapy or physical therapy could help.
P.S. MY dentist thinks I should go back to occupational therapy just to learn how to brush my teeth. That's sounds like a huge waste of time and money.

It's funny you mention brushing teeth- I press so hard on my toothbrush that I sometimes brush off my enamel .

Yeah. My sister hates having her teeth brushed. Do you have problems with using crayons? (random question- but kind of related to the topic? )

I still break crayons every time I use them, and I know what you mean about toothpaste tasting like acid! It tastes terrible . By the way, (unrelated) have you managed to catch an Abra yet in Pokemon Moon?

Reminds me a little of a couple of cats who were on TV in the 1960s: Top Cat and Courageous Cat (with Minute Mouse).
Thanks! It's the official Stampy Cat logo . It was one of the few 128 by 128 Stampy pictures I could find lol. I like the name Minute Mouse .
