Where Every Scroll is a New Adventure
It drives me fucking bananas as someone with a learning disability when someone says “just study harder.” Like I’m not already doing everything I possibly can to stay afloat. I’m already on the verge of mental collapse, if I do any more I’ll fall apart. I’m not capable of studying any harder, Karen!
come on, everybody still counts on their fingers to add and substract smaller numbers, right? And then for bigger numbers everyone has to look it up or just die basically, yeah?
I decided to write a bit about learning disabilities and my opinions on how they are handled in schools. I handwrote it as a demonstration of how my dysgraphia still affects my writing, but I also typed up a translation for anyone who might have trouble reading that.
I have depression,adhd,dyscalculia and auditory possessing disorder, if it weren't for my friends and my better than average teachers i don't know how i would've survived school. It's hard having to make significantly more effort to do things other kids my age find easy to do and still feel like you're not doing your best , but now i realize that my best will never look like a neurotypical's best and that's ok. I'm different then most people so why should i try to act like I'm not ?
