• Facepunch, my handwriting is horrible.
    22 replies, posted
Since I was little, I always had problems with my handwriting. Even thought I'm a good writer (obviously not in English, as you can see) my handwriting is illegible. Teachers are unable to read my texts unless they take allot of time. Even I can't sometimes read what Ive written. All the letters I write are bulky, with different sizes and shapes. I trained allot, but my handwriting is still horrible. Ive read a bit about the subject, and read that writing using my hand and shoulder instead of my wrist and fingers is better. Would this help? Any facepunchers out there with horrible handwriting that overcome this terrible disability can give a hand? (pun intended) PS: I'm right-handed.
Pictures please?
Print then. Nobody handwrites anymore.
That means you have to get a job in the Medical/Science Industry.

Writing in print helps. Strangely I think the color ink used effects how it looks. It seems when I write in blue ink it seems way neater than in black. Don't know why, maybe I'm retarded.....

As the old saying goes, practice makes perfect!
Holy crap, I actually fit all the symptoms of Spatial Dysgraphia O_O. It's like the others, except I do have very good spelling, and a normal tapping speed :P. Wow I just always though I had horrible printing, and I cant even cursive write. Like I actually fit all the symptoms. One second: People with dysgraphia usually can write on some level, and often lack other [URL="http://www.facepunch.com/wiki/Fine_motor_skill"][COLOR=#002bb8]fine motor[/COLOR][/URL] skills, [B]finding tasks such as tying shoes difficult[/B]. It often does not affect all fine motor skills. They can also lack basic spelling skills (for example, having difficulties with the letters p, q, b, and d), [B]and often will write the wrong word when trying to formulate thoughts (on paper).[/B] In [B]childhood, the disorder generally emerges when the child is first introduced to writing. The child may make inappropriately sized and spaced letters, or write wrong or misspelled words despite thorough instruction[/B]. Children with the disorder may have other [URL="http://www.facepunch.com/wiki/Learning_disabilities"][COLOR=#002bb8]learning disabilities[/COLOR][/URL], but they usually have no social or other academic problems. Bolded the things I have. Still wow'd over this O_O
I'm thinking of taking a calligraphy class. I have horrible hand writing, and my friend told me joining such a class would actually help me.
Stop diagnosing yourself over the internet.
use a led pencil, i stopped using gay ass boring pencils and used this [img]http://www.officesystem.lt/img/products/pcm015_72dpi.jpg[/img] but mine looks sexier and looks like a pen and my writing improved nicely so use lead pencils ok
as a master solderer I for one do not have this problem and can add it to the list of conditions/diseases I do not have. thanks facepunch!
My hand writing sucks because when I write wit ha pencil I write with the pencil I hold it nearly perpendicular to the paper I also have very small writing, so as I continue writing and the pencil dulls I can't read my writing because the lines get to thick. When I use a small size lead mechanical pencil its better but with pens its worse because the point isn't fine enough. I blame my grip and my pens. Is it just me noticing it or do a lot less people write in cursive now? Almost half the people in my classes can't read my hand writing because its in cursive. Though my small movements do make soldering and model painting easy for me.
