Is anyone else here dysgraphic? I am and I was just wondering if this is more common in autism than non-autistic individuals.

learning disabilities in general are more common in autism, so dysgraphia probably is, too. I have it.

I went through a lot of handwriting work in grade school because I would confuse several similar letters, and my handwriting was generally not very legible.

I have improved, and most of the time my handwriting is readable (although still fairly bad). I think I am dysgraphic, but I've never been diagnosed with it.
