It makes me feel like a fucking idiot every time. I never see a fucking adult trip and fall like I do, and don’t tell me it’s OK or whatever, please—I want to know if it’s normal.
No. I trip and fall all the time myself, have since I was a very young child from my hoarder’s collection of diseases.
Sometimes its neurological or the result of other diseases/medications, in my case its a very simple poor gait issue I didn’t get addressed until I fell down some stairs 3yrs ago and fucked up my leg. Most people walk heel to toe, I walked toe to heel, there’s a stability difference. Basically, I was a stealth toe walker. and nothing says no fun like learning how you’re supposed to walk in your 30s. Along with seeing a doctor about this before you fall and get super hurt like me I’d suggest checking out how you walk.
No that is not normal. If you trip on something (which happens from time to time) you should be able to place your other foot forward to regain your balance and keep yourself from falling.
No, that’s not really normal. Really only happens when I’m under the influence.
Being clumsy is an trait common in people with autism, ymmv.
It’s not just social information that gets mixed up but pretty much everything. I have to catch myself at least once a month but I haven’t had a fall in a bit.
How’s your hearing? Inner ear problems can fuck up balance.
