Being Clumsy

Post Reply New Topic

I am more clumsy now, I used to fall down ALOT, now I can drop my tv remote, my glasses, my phone & other things. I still have trouble with my balance, there were times that I almost fell down, falling down again would be sooo bad.

I am very clumsy. I suspect I have dyspraxia.

Considering those with ASD will often have sensory issues I don't think it'd be unusual for us to be kinda clumsy.

I'm not sure if I ever am without a bruise or the shadow left over of one. I have a vision impairment that can mess with my depth perception. So on top of being a bit clumsy I am prone to walking into stuff o__o

I am rather clumsy myself although not as bad as I was as a child. I recently discovered that my mother has an extremely rare neurological disorder that causes poor balance and MS/ALS like symptoms and there is a 99% chance I have some form of it, although obviously it's not nearly as severe as her. Since there is no cure or treatment it is pointless to take the time and money to find out.

One might expect that if the neurological variant configuration that results in Aspergers results in more complex, sensitive, or faster neurological processing, that there might also be neuro-muscular effects.

One might think that this could be mitigated by being slower or more methodical in one's motions. However, I have found that I act just as quickly as I would if I were more coordinated. This results in all of the annoyances one would expect.

I'm very clumsy as well, I'm dyspraxic.

I was clumsy in my 20s, I kept spraining my ankle.

I'm in PT just as of today. I slipped and fell down the steps at the springs. I slip a lot, my legs and arms just go separate ways. I catch myself more than I actually fall, but I fall enough for it to be a problem. It's gotten much worse since I've gotten older and I'm getting hurt much worse.
