Finally, a news article on dyspraxia! Sadly it paints it in a negative light, so I’ll be messaging the independent through their their social media

    How common is standalone dyspraxia, without autism as a comorbidity? I get an impression that DCD is just another tell for neurodivergence. Doubly so because they mention anxiety and exclusion as supposed common consequence.

      I was diagnosed with DCD but tested negative for autism.

      However that test was 35+ years ago when I was a small child and my brother who’s in disability services research is convinced that me, dad and our sister would all meet the definition. Plus i think like half my close friends have admitted that they wondered or assumed I’m somewhere on the spectrum.

    Why is there a giant “next article” button covering up the content? Way to show that you dont think readers would be interested in reading your article.
