How is your manual dexterity?

This is better than playing video games. Plus one I would say.

@firemonkey Can you cook food? Having good enough cooking skills should demonstrate some manual dexterity.

Wonder how dyspraxia affect cooking skills? If?

Maybe but sometimes I just wanna play a game and not suck lol.

My biggest problems cooking wise are with meals that require a lot of preparing and coordinating. That’s an EF related thing that can occur with ADHD,ASD,dyspraxia, and no doubt severe mental illness as well. There’s also the difficulty peeling and cutting fresh veg. I still remember being kicked off a cookery course during my last admission because I was taking too long to peel and cut spuds . It was dishonestly and stupidly seen as my being uncooperative. I’ll sometimes use frozen veg. Usually mixed veg. It’s OK, but not as good as fresh veg. Yes you can ready peeled and sliced veg , but you pay a premium price for it- for the non sin of being disabled.
