Changing what Hand you Write With...
19 Answers
When I was about 16 I started having difficulty with my handwriting. My hand started shaking and I just couldn't hold a pen anymore. Anyway.. after a lot of frustration (it was exam time and ended up with a scribe) I decided to try writing with my left hand. Straight away it seemed so natural and easy to me!
Up until this point I had always been right handed, showing no signs of ambidextrousness (sp?).
I still have the shaking and the weakness in my right hand but the doctors have never actually looked into it, they always say it is down to my hyper-mobility.
Has anyone else experienced this or seen anything like it before?

can do most things with both hands can't write right handed if I think about it but if I am holding a phone in my left hand and need to write notes I seem to manage fine just seems my left hand doesn't need to know what my right hand is doing.... can even hold a fine paintbrush ok in my right which should take the same or greater control...
I am hypermobile (very hypermobile apparently). Obviously this affects my joints and they can be very weak. However, I have never known an shaking. At times I can't write properly because I can't apply any pressure and all I get is faint spider writing - I suppose it could be down to my hypermobility but always put it down to my osteoarthitis (which hypermobile people are very likely to suffer from)
I think your problem ought to be looked into Erin.
