I am applying for my provisional tomorrow with help from my mother so that is the first step. When should I start contacting driving instructors in Chester for lessons

Always someone else isn't it. Too late for another chance, you've already had some, blowing every single one.

And it's Avant.

Then where do I go for driving advice. Look I know I have to work hard for what I want and I'm going to try and do that. I'm going to change my actions now because Im fed up getting banned from everywhere and not being part of a nice community

Quite simple, ask a driving instructor. I do wonder how you got into uni.

Good bye!

In simple terms most of us will cut you some slack for Dyspraxia.

Equally we're not going to tolerate being abused. If you cannot control that then I'm afraid you'll get banned from any other forum or SM too.

Try and compartmentalise your problems. The answer for driving is practice at the HP and Theory tests and otherwise read/heed the ample advice on the net for Dyspraxics learning to drive.

Can you advice me on any books that might be good for me to practice to learn the theory

Well I got into uni asking my college tutor's for advice and before I was banned the student room gave me help and advice so I was hoping a driving site might be the same. Look I am willing to change. I want to change and be a better and more likable person, I have friends, they like me but I don't act likable on the internet

Please just tell me where I can go if you are going to keep banning me

That would be so easy but I do not believe you would understand since you appear to be a totally stupid member of humanity.

A word of wisdom. When I was your age we had no internet. If we did not know something we asked our parents, mates, teachers, even driving instructors when we wanted to learn. There were no dating sites so we had to go out and meet real girls and you may not believe this, they existed even when you did not have a driving licence.

Strange thing is when I was your age many mates went to uni simply for the social activities, no intention of getting a useful degree but it was all free back then. Are you trying to tell us there are no suitable girls to meet or have you alienated all those as well.

When its been decided you are safe to go out alone without any risks to society they may just about let you on a forum again, but hopefully not this one.

What's this supposed to mean when it's been decided I am safe to go out alone? I still ask my friends, parents and teachers things I want to know. And I met the girl I like at uni not on a dating site.

If anyone wants a bit of background, just Google samthefootball., (just one of his various forum names).

It'll be seen that the Backroom forum has got away lightly compared to other sites where he has made some really offensive contributions...going back at least two years.

There are at least twenty forums that have been subject to his attention, ranging from Mumsnet to an Airgun forum and taking in a diabetes site along the way (where his contributions were dire, far worse than here).

I know and I have been banned from all of them. I just seem to get angry and snap at the smallest things. Its like a switch in my head and I can't control getting angry if people seem to judgy or don't understand

That must explain some of the difficulty - Sam spends too much of his time on forums and chatrooms, rather than contacting real-life driving instructors for example. Maybe his parents should limit his keyboard hours ?

Andrew, I go to university so they can't limit my keyboard hours because I'm going to be moving into my student house in September anyway.

When I move in there I will feel alot better as well

I wish people would stop feeding this poster. The outcome will always be the same - he will find ways to spin out the discussion and at the end it will disintegrate into abuse.

You cannot help him, you cannot reason with him, you cannot win an argument against him.

He needs the sort of help we cannot provide.

This is going beyond silly, I agree with FP and others, so no more suggestions/help from me.

Maybe if we ALL ignore him he'll go away?

He won't take any notice of us. One horse who won't drink.

Like I said before and I should have done it but i'm taking a break now. I might return in a month or two's time when I've taken steps to improve my life and perhaps will have news on my driving journey.

Thanks to people who have given me advice but I'm going to take it from here. So for now its goodbye

Good idea but he's already been there - he's been trolling and causing trouble on sane.org and other mental heatlth forums using his other non de plume(s).

I was slightly amused to see his trolling on the airgun forum. You tend to get all sorts on there - a forum inhabited by people who use all manner of shooting hardware (they don't confine their shooting to airguns) is an odd place to wind people up.

I am not trolling or causing trouble on there. Again those sites just didn't understand. And how can asking for a girlfriend on a mental health site which causes mental health for me is wrong

http://sane.org.uk/support_forum/viewtopic.php?t=35126&p=291425

This is what I wrote and that is not causing trouble

Anyway, goodbye because I'm going to live in the real world now and away from forumswhich are not doing my mental health any good these past few years
