100% accurate, the only way I can avoid these things is if I wake up 2 hours before I need to.

It'll be like have a shower, wash my hair twice because I can't remember if I washed it in the first place, get dressed, put on coat because I'm sure the weather said cold today but 5 mins later I'm sweating buckets, don't put my shoes on because I drive barefoot, quickly brush my teeth for 20 minutes. Realise the toast I put on as soon as I got up now looks like the charred remnants of hell, put stuff in my bag, take stuff out my bag I'm sure I don't need, put stuff back in because I probably almost definitely do, walk away, lose my bag, do this 6 times, go to leave, can't find the door keys, eventually find them. Leave the house, go to my car, go back in the house because I haven't got my car keys, find them, get in the car, where are my car keys? Oh I left them in the car door AGAIN. And that's before I leave the driveway.

lol, I gave up on shoelaces years ago :D
I only buy Velcro now, don't care what people think, it's just not worth it to have shoelaces.

Also this is my morning routine, there are some similarities and some differences:
* not hear alarms
* unconsciously press the snooze button every time for 30 minutes up to an hour
* try to get out of bed
* fall on the floor or run into a well
* poke my face while trying to get my toothbrush in my mouth
* turn on music that I know the length of so I don't stay too long in the shower
* put on at least 1 piece of clothing the wrong way around and realize it when trying to open door
* eat if I have time, if I do, get distracted and stress out about being late for work. If I don't, put breakfast in a bag for eating at work and stress out about being late for work
* miss the keyhole of my door to open
* do the same to close
* go through the same misery at the door of the building
* go through the same misery at the door of my car
* try to drive while forgetting to put my keys in
* go through the key misery again at the door of my office (have you noticed that I don't enjoy keys, yet?)

this sums up about 2 hours, so when I have the morning shift, that's from 5 until 7 -_-

literally

Daydreaming is the bane of my lol

As usual thank you so much for these videos, the representation of dyspraxia is much appreciated <3 <3 <3

[futuristicpoets]

Words can't describe how much I love this video. So accurate.

[totallyquackers]

This pretty much sums up my mornings. I start preparing breakfast and then realise that I am meant to do something else and go do that instead... then 20 minutes later I see my breakfast that I was in the middle of preparing and by then it's too late to eat it.

Exact representation of my morning routine every day before school 🙃

[zachtheripper]

I was told i had dyspraxia at a really young age but i was never told what it meant and i was told id grow out of it. Ive only just found out what it means and i feel so much better that there are people just like me. I used to think i was alone and i was weird because i was different

[Iain]

I thought it was just me that was like this.

[-IVY-]

Yessss I have this and this is me every day. 😂

[ruthsdyspraxiacontent]

The end part is me everyday and then makeup and bun is me every time I try and dress up to go out! hahah

[Linnxart]

I have dyspraxia too, im 13 years old and its frustrating for me because im suffering a lot of bullying, and its kinda I cant tell them that i have this condition, they will LAUGH at me as alway, i never ever talk to anybody, my teachers also LAUGH at me, im have the Best notes at school so im not stupid but how can i show them when all they do is be bad with me, and yell at me. It very difficult dont make it evidencidence at sports, im have shame for that,

[todore]

Yep! That's just one of those morning rituals...

[shylaghai]

[danielfleming]

This is what I'm like all mornings lol and I have dyspraxia and it does make my mornings harder

[sheenawilson]

Can someone please answer this to help me understand what dyspraxia is I have it yet I don't know what it's about but I've just had a look and this is what I can gather from it
*I also run things to hot
*I am surprisingly good at sports
*I'm not so good at typing or things like that with spelling and stuff like that
*I can tie my shoelaces but I think that's because I've been taught since I was like 3
*Top set everything yet bad concentration
Yeah it would be nice if someone could answer so I can get some insight on what's going on aha

[Arthur-qoeb]

I identify so much myself in you but boy way ahah
