So I've added 'cricketing' to the list of weird things Ive always done that it turns out are probably ASD related - in this case it's apparently more an ADHD thing which is interesting since that pops up quite often too... Hmm!
Anyway, I'm not yet 50 and have had a few ops related to arthritis, and really struggle with my ankles and feet, often without knowing why... until now: I wonder if the cricketing stim I do is causing it.
I wonder if anyone here has found a way of reducing the impact of it - I reckon I'm far more prone to it when stressed but that's not going to stop. I guess I'm wondering if restricting movement in my feet/ankles during sleep might be a help. Has anyone here done that and if so what did you use - ankle brace? Splints?
I suppose I'm also interested if anyone else here does that - I felt a bit better when I found out I'm not the only person out there to regularly injure myself by simply trying to get to sleep, so if that's you too shout up!
