Yesterday in mail I admitted to someone I can't ride a bike, or swim

Now to most people would be omg that's so easy how come - long story but I mentally can't get brain, body and balance working all at same time

Anyway point of thread is that is there anything that you fellow forumites can't do that other people would find really easy

I suppose it's a coming out thread for easy stuff that you can't do!!!!

I may explain why later on why I can't do these things.

Funny you should say that - I *can* swim, and, in theory, ride a bike, but I don't like doing so because for some reason if another cyclist or pedestrian comes within 6 foot of me I instantly lose my balance as soon as I see them in my field of vision and literally fall off. Every time. I wouldn't dare go on a road.

Be pain free even for one day.

Notice lot of what others say can't do, could actually do with practise or being shown exactly how to by someone who knows and taught.

Guess some of the phobias could even be overcome with enough help and slowly planning an overcome plan, start small an build on it.

Bud. I had balance problems many years ago, due to other body issues. I had to stop riding my bike, simply because was crashing into stuff or falling off.

The consultant told me to get stabiliser's for my rear wheel and keep cycling or use a sit down bike with two wheels at rear for support.

I got stabilisers and was able to cycle, but all guys normally went out with, told me to get to fuck, they not going out with me with stabilisers on. I look stupid.

Fuck em I just went out on my own. Fare enough off road was no longer possible, but least was out on a bike even if was weird looking an adult with stabilisers

I'd say go for it op. Get some and a decent bike or get a sit down bike as you may find that easier. Hope that helps

And you can swim. Just you won't learn is the answer. Ok perhaps not swim at first but you can easily float for some time and get used to moving in water. Wear a buoyancy aid bud in the pool. Start by just floating around on regular basis...work on treading water, you can just float anyway, but if you tread water, will build up your confidence and also allow you to rise up and down and let's you understand how swimming or buoyancy works with your body. After this a few visits will become more confident. Keep the buoyancy aid on all the time, start laying on your back, kick your legs if can and drawn your arms out and in, you won't sink and a well fitting buoyancy aid, your head and upper chest will always be out water when upright, but even if lay on back or front, its quite hard to get your head under water.

I'm talking here from experience, I taught an adult mate to swim. It tool ages but he swims regularly now and loves it. Hope my thoughts help

I jump off cliffs into water upto like 90ft. I've always been a climber and have been on routes in Canada and states that well...if fell given used to solo mostly (its the thrill seeker in me) would have fell 1000's of feet on most routes.

My advise to you would be start small and build up. Spend time with things like standing on a park bench and looking down at ground... go to swimming baths and stand on edge looking down at water. With help from a friend. Go to swimming baths and start jumping off side of pool into the water. Once master that confidently, ask for a starters block and start jumping off that into water, then build on moving on to the lowest diving board. Look up all the time and jump into water, do this lots as will build your confidence. Then start bringing eye level down. Don't look down right away at water. Work on this. With right support you could work up the heights on boards and in turn work on being able to look down. With regards to your pier...moving on..start spending time just on its edge or stay in middle, spend time in middle only never going near the edge to look down. Look out on horizon a lot though as will adapt your sensory awareness of being at a different height...what you should do is write yourself a plan and stick to it and work with it slowly...you could use walls in parks after park bench. Like start sitting on a small waist height wall and look down and build up wall height and standing and sitting comfortably... thus body becomes more accepting of looking at the ground from height. Everyone is different and these things take time to overcome, but anything is possible if you learn to overcome your phobias slowly. Hope some of that helps

"Cook omelettes

Cheat with an omelette.

Once its in the pan. Cool away on a very low heat for a little while, as this is heating. Stick the grill on.

Then stick the frying pan (metal handle is best, or keep handle away fr heat). Cook the top of the omelette. If its a cheese one your doing, grate cheese onto top, then stick back under grill till melted, remove it and fold over one half using a flat spatula.. grill for about a minute then back on hob for minute on low heat.

Slide out off onto a plate.

Is how they do it in restaurants

And how I've always made an omelette with success. Hope that helps

Roller skate as in four wheels?

Sounds like you would be able to blade with ease if can ice skate.. yet roller skating is four wheels each foot. I'm sure you be better suited to a single blade of wheels like your ice skates

That family thing about bread is really interesting. I don't think I'm half bad at cooking and baking, but every time I've attempted bread it's turned out crap. And when my daughter tried to make bread rolls they turned out like mini cannon balls.

"I never learned to ride a bike.

I can't swim under the water. My boobs are too big and I just float up to the surface .

I can't bake bread, something in my skin kills the yeast. My whole family has the same problem.

That family thing about bread is really interesting. I don't think I'm half bad at cooking and baking, but every time I've attempted bread it's turned out crap. And when my daughter tried to make bread rolls they turned out like mini cannon balls. "

Buy a bread maker. About £45 in lidl when they have one..is about the best one..other than that its the £95 Panasonic is the best.

They do it all for you, saves long time of learning.

I used to be crap at bread. Part of the battle is right yeast.

Try fresh yeast over dried.

You can get fresh yeast mostly for free at tescos if you ask at bakery, but any bread makers will sell you like 1oz for about 20p keep in fridge.

I could give you very easy instructions that would work, even with this so called yeast family problem.

The other yeast that's fail proof mostly is doves farm yeast. Stay away from alisons or any of these cheap brands as the yeast is poor quality and that be your problem

Hope that helps

"My math is pretty shocking. I see numbers and my brain just panics."

Same here! When I was 12 I had a panic attack in a maths test and 4 years later when I was 19 it happened again

The problem isn't the yeast its us lol.

We have an enzyme in our skin that kills the yeast.

Me, my 2 sisters, mum, grandma, great grandmother, niece and nephew who is a highly respected chef. It makes no difference what kind of yeast we use the results are always the same.

For certain applications in Computers, I just freeze, then panic.

I've lost jobs at pre-interview, even at an interview when faced with a last minute presentation, because I couldn't work out what to do.

On a Basic learning computer skills course this year, I just scraped through the first week, but had to resit it 6 times!

Excel was the next mandatory section. I lasted three hours before I was removed after getting so worked up & in a severe panic! I could not complete the course!

A trainer suggested I have Computer Dyslexia, but he said he had never seen anyone with such hatred of PC's.

Yet, emails aren't a problem or posting via my phone.

And don't suggest the "Dummies" series of help books; they're a nightmare!

Dyspraxia is a pain. Literally.

I can't tell my left from my right which leads to trouble with directions, I can't do any sports and I can't get through a day without hurting myself in some way due to shit spatial awareness, and I struggle to pronounce certain letters and sounds... I couldn't pronounce specifically until last year for example.
