Living With Alexithymia & Dyspraxia | EP33

Living With Alexithymia & Dyspraxia | EP33

In this episode, we discuss our experiences living with alexithymia and dyspraxia. We talk about the challenges of expressing emotions due to alexithymia and how it affects our ability to communicate how we are feeling and what accommodations we need to feel comfortable. Plus we discuss our Dyspraxia and how it can affect coordination and communication, can lead to challenges in everyday tasks and leaves you with random bruises!


Takeaways


  • Alexithymia can make it challenging to communicate and be sincere in personal interactions.
  • The experiences of neurodivergent individuals can vary, and it's important to respect and understand these differences.
  • Alexithymia and dyspraxia are lifelong conditions that can be managed but need to be recognised by everyone as disabilities.
  • Having a diagnosis can provide solace and understanding, and it's important to recognize and accept one's neurodivergent traits.
  • Spelling can be challenging for individuals with dyslexia, and it's important to focus on understanding the message rather than nit-picking spelling errors.
