Hi there, actually i was just looking through some 9 year old medical files and found a letter diognosing me as dispraxic so i looked it up an here i am.

I remember going to speach pathologists and occupational therapists for about 2 years, i was always pretty smart but never acheived much in school until i hit year eleven and twelve where strangely enough i went from being just below average to top of the class in all of my subjects(Except english, not a fan) I achieved excellent results in the HSC and am now at uni doing Urban Planning and doing very well both socially and academically.

I would probably attribute my dispraxia with years of bullying from year 2 to year 10. Doing sport like taekwondo, soccor and lifting weights (Later years), extra reading and other activities as well as the tutoring really helped me get out of it. Self esteem and friends ect.. But i guess every case is different.
