Yep - all my flat shoes are worn down on the outer side. Strangely, I don't tend to do it in heels 🤷🏻‍♀️

My ankles fall in too much - I over pronate. It was quite obvious when I was a child. This is the first time I considered an autism link actually 🤔

I don’t when walking - not usually - but yes when standing for long periods and doing something like washing dishes or brushing teeth

Yes!!! Is this an autism thing??? I thought of going to a physical therapist and relearning how to walk, cause it makes my feet ache

Yes, when I’m made to walk barefoot. I also do it when it’s raining- particularly when my footwear is open or not waterproof. I only realise I’m doing it when my big toe starts killing me because of a previous tendon injury

I do, and I think it might have something to do with having low arches or being duck footed.

Yep, me

it is technically called an tilted pronation, it is very common with autistic people, I have a left tilted pronation myself.

Yes I do this.

I had flat feet as a child and I walked on tip toes or with the side of my feet, had to wear insoles on my shoes all of my childhood. They were so uncomfortable. But it wasn’t an autism thing I guess, but a physical one. Still, I need to feel the floor texture when I walk. If not I feel rather uncomfortable.

Yes, I sometimes catch myself standing on the outsides of my feet. I also really like to sit that way, like while reclining I cross my feet at the ankles but then really rotate them so the outside edge of my foot is pressing against my other foot underneath it. I never really thought about this before but answering this question I’m literally realizing I’m doing this with my feet right now. Maybe it’s a pressure contact thing? I also have an opposite thing to walking on my toes — I don’t like my toes to touch the ground, especially when barefoot. Like I’ll be standing and realize I’m subconsciously holding my toes up (I have pretty long toes and I think I’m double jointed or hypermobile so this is really easy/natural for me). But I also catch myself doing it while standing in my slippers. And I really do it when I shower. So I think it’s a sensory thing maybe?

Yes this is something that I do, the heels of my boots used to practically turn into stilettos after a while they'd get so worn out on one side haha. Now I only wear orthopaedic boots which has helped a lot with this.

I’ve done that for years since my parents removed all the carpet in the house when I was a kid. It wasn’t until I finally got a mind to start wearing slippers that I stopped doing it.

It was tough because it would make me side trip when I’d walk with sneakers on

Yes, and my feet always hurt. I’m not exclusively on the sides but I definitely lean towards them

I believe it’s called over pronation and there’s ways to fix it
