Loss of co-ordination - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

Recently I've been having coordination lapses while using my mouse. I accidentally added someone as a buddy the other day, and I just accidentally reported my own post to a moderator

.

Is there some sort of medical condition for this, or is just it the download slope as part of my loss of teenagerhood?

later!

Could be worse; I've done that twice. I hardly ever go to my user cp page, so it doesn't matter much... BTW, I've only not been a teenager a couple years, so I'm sure it happens to all of us.

You could be in for a rough life -- these things usually don't start happening until you hit your 40s.

This can be caused by a wide variety of medical conditions, some medications (including over-the-counter), stress, lack of sleep, too much tea/coffee/cola, some herbal supplements, etc. If you haven't had a THOROUGH physical exam, with appropriate tests and lab work, in over a year or so then maybe it is time to see the docs. After your late teens/early 20s, your body stops growing, and starts growing old. Time for more frequent service and better preventative maintenance.

Could be a loose gaskget.

Have a doctor or FNP check for tremors especially in the eyes. If you have any balance problems make sure to tell the physician. There are too many things to list that effect coordination but most of the nasty ones are quite treatable if caught in the early to mid 20's.

Definitely not a condition of old age...as you get older, you want FEWER buddies!

Ha! People can get on your nerves with perfectionism (faulty by definition), weird quirks and preferences. Some people are still worth it unless the maintenance gets overbearing.

I used to be less discriminating. We had a "friend" in college that use to make stupid little jokes an obscene gestures all the time. It used to be funny in class to see the teacher's reactions. As we became adults, he kept doing it. Sexual inuendos in front of the wives, shovenistic stuff and embarrassing. I got tired of the noise pollution coming out of his mouth after a while. One time we were all out eating at a restaraunt and a child was crying so in the middle of our conversation he stood up and said "shut the kid up!" and sat back down and continued talking at least 3 times. After this, we all got tired of him and sprung him loose like survivor or something!

I have lots of aquaintences, but pick and choose friends dinstictively now. Sometimes, they choose me though and that can work out just fine. Alot of times I enjoy being alone.

There are pretty few weird quirks I can stand in people.. weird voices, talking too much, attention seeking, bad clothes, bad family, bad friends, even bad names (Doris?) can be enough to put me off a girl. Don't get me started on gigantic asses! Really though, I'm far more often put off by a girls personality than her looks..

Wow! Looking back, I sound really picky, but I'm not!

Hmm Open Discussion has been thin on topics recently, I'll think I'll post this in a new thread... RIGHT HERE
