Start drinking surface cleaner diluted in water. This way when you spill it you can just use it to clean up instead. 2 birds, 1 stone right there.

You may have a poor kinesthetic sense, poor motor control, or lack of touch sensitivity. Does your hand cramp when you write with a pen or pencil? People who suffer from one of the prior mentioned tend to grip things like pens extra hard because they aren't getting enough feedback from their hand while writing when they hold it lightly.

In old timey fashion, you might be described as "clumsy". However short of a neurological disease nobody is clumsy permenantly. While touch sensitivity is not easily improved, kinesthetic sense and motor control can be improved with practice. Get glasses with heavier bottoms. This will provide more resistance for which you feel the glass before knocking it over. Otherwise, excercise more, and focus on activities which require coordination and control. In addition, consider using glasses with lids on them, sometimes called a "sippy cup." It should reduce the number of spilled liquid incidents.

Google "executive function disorder". There's no treatment other than modifying your habits to make things easier for you. For example, I put something down and forget I put it there a few seconds later, so I do constant mental double checks.

OP, no idea how to prevent the dropped glasses part, except to switch to insulated lidded tumblers, like Tervis, things with a handle, glasses that have good bottoms, ridges to hold. In nursing homes, they just do coffee mugs for unstable residents, often with lids and straws. Restaurants all have lidded cups just for kids, which you can ask for "may I have my soda in a To Go cup, please?" and if they answer is no, then ask for the children's cup. You can say that you collect them or some explanation like that.

At the dinner table, I am going to suppose you act without thinking, like ADHD. Slow down, think before doing. If that's not your issue, do you know the etiquette of table manners? Back up in your training and start paying attention not to shoving food down, gabbing, but rather manners. Sit up, one hand in lap. Set your place at the table correctly. Glass on right, bread plate left. Start using the correct form for your meal, with small bites, frequent sips, frequent blotting of lips with napkin. Breathe. Dry your fingers of grease before handling your cup. No brute force for anything, just more delicacy. Forgetting a drink is there and knocking is over is reaching for things beyond it. Oh no no. Ask for things to be passed. Move the drink first. Pretend you are dining with the Queen, a new boss, or actually being filmed and on TV, Live!...you need to slow down. There are some glasses that suck, and if your glasses are Solo cups, or some crappy thing that doesn't fit your hands well, or sweats profusely, time to go shopping. Even getting a bright pattern might help.

Wow, I haven't heard of this kind of problem in yonks.

Hope you're not using the good linen!

I imagine your problem is that you are eating your meals on a very, very small table. There obviously isn't enough space for you, your elbows, yours many plates of food and your buckets of milk. If you insist on eating out of such huge vessels, then you should probably eat from a bigger surface. Or the floor outside, the floor outside (ground) Is huge and should accommodate. Just make sure you don't use the good linen. If you want to carry on eating from tiny-tables, then you should have small-sandwiches, mini-milks and general, little-lunches.

I'll get an example pic of what im talking about.

Bit of an exaggeration but you get the idea.

I have also heard of people using a series of sliding channels built into their table to bolt their cutlery etc to the table which are fitted in a sort of trough and allow restricted movement.

Anyway, enjoy yourself and keep on cooking!

Best,
Michael-Allen
