Difficulty writing.

Hi all, Not sure if I've put this in the correct place but hope you'll forgive me if not.  Since I was diagnosed with asergers syndrome a couple of years ago at 56 years old I have realized that I have always had a problem with writing. I mean to say that I can't write in a set style and stick to it. I've never been able to do it but always thought it was just that I hadn't decided on a way of writing that I liked or that suited me. I have spent years changing from one style to another and it seems to have got worse the older I  have become. If I write something down that is quite short like a list for shopping or something it's OK. I mean to say it all looks pretty much the same but if it's anything that I need to spend a bit more time on there's many different styles in it. I just can't seem to stick to one. The other problem I have is that I'm quite slow at using a keypad so I often get frustrated with that and just give up trying. Life would be much easier for me if I could get words and thoughts down on paper or typed on a computer screen as I would have a way of expressing the things I want people to know etc. oh yes, the other problem I have is that I can be in the middle of saying something or writing something and the words just seem to go. It can be anything at all that I get stuck on like simple words that everyone uses all the time etc. it's as though I want to say something and I know how I want to say it but the words dissapear at the very time I need them. Does anyone else have these problems? can you give me any advice? it's very frustrating.

  • you can always try using the microphone option as you talk to your tablet or computer instead of having to type, it types for you :-) 

    For pc or laptop you may need software for this but on a tablet when the keyboard appears there should be what looks like an old fashioned microphone next to the settings button or on the settings button if you hold it down for a second it will bring up the microphone when it beeps start to talk and it will type for you.
