Clumsiness

[@liamod]

Definitely. I am clumsy a lot of the time. I drop things and knock things over all the time. Yes, I think it is something to do with my autism/aspergers.

I also have a lot of clumsiness issues. Spastic movements, bumping into things, hitting my head, stubbing my toe and a whole lot of other things. I get a lot of bruises, and I don't even know how some get there. My question is this: has anyone been able to use any techniques to become less clumsy?

I'm always bumping and knocking stuff down. It's very frustrating.

At school in PE, my teacher described me as having no natural talent, I had poor handwriting, couldn't do breast stroke in swimming or dance. I was late to learn to ride a bike. But I could play tennis, catch a ball and do sewing or knitting. I can also now ride a bike and drive a car. I tried to learn to play the guitar, but couldn't coordinate my hands well, and I can't type well, either. I've also been told that I walk in clumsy way. I also tend to drop things quite a lot or knock things of shelves. But I know that all people have clumsy moments, so I'm really not sure that my clumsiness is worse than it is for the average person. I know someone who has dyspraxia, and she cannot play tennis, drive a car or ride a bike. So really, my symptoms are relatively mild.

I did a video blog recently on "Clumsiness". If you don't like energetic dance music, that's the music I used in this video and how clumsy of me.

I can relate to most of what's been posted here, feel less alone!
And I just figure I'm proving the law of gravity every time I drop something...

I also break stuff too. I broke my stim toy last year (the unicorn broke off), a couple of months after I bought it. I got overstimulated and broke it by accident. I don't have a lot of upper body strength, however I can manage enough strength to break something though lol.
