Ninastar, where you late at developing speech as a child?

The sequencing difficulties you describe sound like me. As a child I also stuttered or slurred my words when I was worried.

When you say you get words muddled up, do you mean you put things the wrong way round like "are you" instead of 'you are"? I'm terrible at that when I'm writing something and I'll proof read it and still think its right but can look at it later and see the mistake. I find that reading what you've written out loud really helps.

Short term memory can be a real pain. Do you ever try to memorize by association?

The hand jerking sounds like a tic which could well be dyspraxia. Have you always had that?
