Dysgraphia And Its Link With Autism

Dysgraphia, hard to pronounce right, well try it this way dys- + graphia. Know that you know how to pronounce it, let’s see what it means. The literal meaning of the words is pretty simple or at least half of it. (Dys) means (Hard) and (Graphia) means (Writing). Dys Graphia = Hard Write/Hard to Write. But What does that mean to us and to the person affected by it?

Dysgraphia is a comorbidity seen in people with Autism. This is not very common, but it isn’t rare either. People with Dysgraphia have difficulty in writing. Imagine this, you know what you want to write, and you know what the words look like, every character in fact, however, your brain can’t transmit the information to your hands to replicate it on paper or any other surface. People with Dysgraphia struggle to get their thoughts on paper and when they do the handwriting is mostly poor, the spacing, size, alignment, and overall legibility of the write up is also poor. The problem, unfortunately, does not go away with age, or hours of writing instruction and practice.

While Dysgraphia is mostly seen in people with ADHD and Autism, It is also prevalent in the general population. The biggest problem is that it is often considered as poor handwriting skills and is left undiagnosed. Incase you see someone with these symptoms please consult a doctor as soon as possible.

  1. I should say also believe that mesothelioma cancer is a rare form of many forms of cancer that is generally found in those people previously exposed to asbestos. Cancerous tissues form inside mesothelium, which is a safety lining which covers the vast majority of body’s internal organs. These cells generally form from the lining from the lungs, abdominal area, or the sac which actually encircles one’s heart. Thanks for discussing your ideas.

  2. My son struggles to write and do homework. Sometimes he asks me to write down his answers for him after he gets the answers.
    My husband ALWAYS asks me to write addresses in packages or ideas down for him. For the first few years of marriage I was resentful but now I’m beginning to understand that he is not lazy just uncoordinated. It must be hereditary.
