"Many people with dyspraxia do not have a driving license or give up trying to get one but I want to show that with the right support you can definitely drive and become independent..." wakefieldexpress.co.uk/health/pontefr… via @ReporterJamesC
We are still looking for neurodivergent teenagers with or without a depression diagnosis and their parents to join our study. Help us understand and measure depression better in these young people. Email [email protected]#Autism#ADHD#AuDHD#DCD#Dyspraxia
Unfortunately Dyspraxia is not well recognised or supported so it's important that we help educate and advocate. Everyone should have the opportunity to let their uniqueness, determination and creativity shine. #DyspraxiaAwareness
Embracing Autistic identity can transform an individual's mental health. Growing up feeling misunderstood or pressured to ""fit in"" with neurotypical norms can lead to anxiety & depression. When met with understanding & support they can thrive, feeling valued for who they are.
Let's raise awareness together: Dyspraxia Awareness week 2024 takes place October 7-13 with free online Live Q&A Panels, Webinars, Workshops and more...
