POLL: Diagnosis and Handedness

Lounge
1

Another thread made me curious about this, so I thought I would make a poll.

I am left-handed and have schizoaffective disorder. I’m actually a bit ambidextrous, there are a lot of things I do with right hand, but I consider my best fine motor control to be in my left hand, as that is the hand with which I write, so I consider myself left-handed overall.

Which of these fits you?

  • Lefty with schizophrenia
  • Righty with schizophrenia.
  • Lefty with schizoaffective disorder
  • Righty with schizoaffective disorder
  • Lefty with other psychotic disorder
  • Righty with other psychotic disorder

You should add ambidextrous

I didn’t include it because everyone is at least slightly better with one hand than they are with the other. Like I said above, I’m fairly ambidextrous myself, but my left hand is a little better than my right.

I’m schizophrenic and I literally do everything with my right hand. My arms are uneven when I’m bench pressing because my right arm is just that much stronger

I voted lefty with schizophrenia, didnt read the whole poll I’m really a lefty with schizoaffective disorder.

EDIT: Noticed I could change my vote.

I’m ambidextrous. Better at writing print with my right hand, cursive is better with my left. Mostly everything else I’m better with my left but I tend to open jars with my right because that hand is stronger, has less arthritis.

I voted lefty with sz.

Ambidextrous means that a person can use either hand equally well.

~10% of the world population is left-handed so the poll seems to show a similar percentage.

I’m right handed for everything but batting in cricket or golf etc. With a bat I am left handed!

I can do everything with either, but there’s always a slight preference. Its still considered ambidextrous.

I always swim with my right hand but I only play golf with my left hand.

Right handed for me. My brother, who doesn’t have schizophrenia, is left handed. It’s interesting to see how my family members have different handedness.
