I'm an A-College student...But I can't fathom why I struggle with dexterity and performance tasks. It's like I literally can't grip, or do much of anything that a monkey could do
 . It's so incredibly embarrassing. I hate being the smart kid who can't tie something, or has trouble understanding the concept of tying something and then forgets how to do it and then has to keep doing it over again. My mind blanks. I don't know. I've been like this my entire life (I am 22) IDK if it's performance anxiety but it scares me...It doesn't make me confident at all and people bully me because of it and it makes me depressed and not confident at all...

I had a very good friend and colleague who was brilliant but physically clumsy---humor helps but maybe engaging in a practice (yoga comes to mind) that requires use of mind and body would help. Also, remember all you CAN do and DO. ((((((hug))))))

Have you ever considered seeing a neurologist, just to be certain you aren't missing something?

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
