#actually dysgraphic

I have several learning disabilities. My official diagnosis is literally just “learning disability” not even kidding.
I have dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia. Each of which have impacted my life severely. On top of all of these, I also have ID, which affects my ability to learn. Overall, my brains a mess.
I wasn’t able to read chapter books until 8th grade, and even though I can now, they’re very overwhelming for me and I read pretty slow. My handwriting is also very terrible, like it’s barley readable to most. My dyscalculia is what I feel like impacts me one of the most. I can do very basic things with a calculator, like multiplication. Algebra is a hard no, and I can read an Analog Clock but they can’t be fancy and it takes me awhile to figure out.
Learning disabilities are a big struggle of mine, and it’s very demeaning and frustrating to have them.
Please be kind to your people with learning disabilities, we’re trying our best. I have so much more to say, and I’ll make some more posts on my experience with learning disabilities later.

i’m actually so upset my parents didn’t tell me i’m dysgraphic and dyspraxic.
i went through my whole academic years so far of teachers telling me that the only reason that they didn’t give me a good grade was because of something i can’t change. i went through my teachers telling me that they don’t think i put enough effort and that “you just need to work harder “ on my handwriting. I never had an excuse or a way to explain that i really really just can’t do that UNTIL TODAY.
why did no one tell me it actually hurts so much i could have been understood so much better if some teacher had just actually took the time to understand me. I know to others it might not seem like a big deal to be dysgraphic but to me it is especially because i care a lot about my grades and being told that it’s like it’s my fault when i have worked so hard just to be able to even walk without hitting myself into something constantly and been into therapy since i was 4. it’s really annoying that i could have advocated for myself and proven that i am not stupid or like unable to do well in school just because of my issues with motor skills and verbal processing.
IF YOUR KID HAS A DISABILITY YOU TELL THEM!!!

Anyone have advice for learning Modern/Biblical Hebrew (especially the alphabet) when one has Dysgraphia and problems learning languages (even ones using the same alphabet as English)?

We've been sorting through things from the attic since we're being evicted in about a month. And today we went through a box of my things. In there I found sone all school stuff, and my old Brownies troop box and bag along with all the work books we were given.
Honestly looking through some of it just made me feel sick. Like on a page of dreams we had two of my five dreams were that people would stop being mean to me and I'd make a friend (not more friends that I'd have one friend). That was a dream I put on the same level as being a freaking pop star (another dream I wrote).
Also my hand writting was god awful (i honestly can't tell if i wrote anything when i was five or ten), I thought my birthday was on the 81st on November when I was like eight or nine, I couldn't even spell words like memory when I was eleven (I spelt it memary). But I couldn't get diagnosed with anything (no matter how hard my mum tried) because "there wasn't enough proof" (my mum started collecting evidence when I was six) "they're not severe enough" (I'm 25 and still struggling) "they're borderline autistic" (even if that was a thing how does that stop me from having dyscalculia, or dyspraxia, or dysgraphia?)
I want to cry and scream and vomit. I want to grab the people who were meant to help me and ask them why didn't they? Why did they deny me the help I needed? What did they gain by watching me struggle from holding me back? What would they have lost by helping me? Even just giving me a reason as to why I was struggling?
I WAS A FUCKING KID! WHY WOULD NO ONE FUCKING HELP ME!?

I wish people would stop trying to force kids to hold a pencil a certain way. I was constantly nagged by teachers my entire life about never holding it properly and like I was stabbing someone and put into years of occupational therapy but guess what? I still don’t hold a pencil “right”. Meanwhile I was learning to type and could do it pretty fast since I needed to because chat rooms didn’t have any indicator someone was still typing so you had to be fast in order to not be left behind in conversation. They FINALLY gave me an Alphasmart as an accommodation and gave up with trying to write normally and I wish they did sooner.

Learning disabilities in the workforce
Starting a new job search and I recently asked a friend for advice on whether to put “yes, I have a disability” on the disability declaration on job application because while having dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyspraxia are protected by the ADA, I am still worried about discrimination from a hiring manager and normally put no. The response I got was shockingly un-shocking. I was told by the friend, “I don’t view you as having a disability and if you decide to play the game then you will have to be content with being a diversity hire or hired to meet a quota.” Having had to fight with teachers about accommodations and friends not understanding why I had them, I’m tired of people’s attitudes. I’m not even mad, just disappointed to still be dealing with this in 2023.

Maddy- ADHD so hyper with sound and slightly with touch and smell and with interception though I think that is consistent with all of them. She also needs constant movement
Full moon any moon Hijinx -periods and mental breakdowns
Tom- Hypoglycaemia and dyslexia
Most of the wild wolves including Emilia excluding the brother are on the autism spectrum.
Jana- asexual Biromantic she has some trauma and grief also may be narcolepsy and absent seizures if we were in the real world but definitely SPD beyond the wolf degree( smell, touch -hyper and proprioception/vestibular-hypo sound seems to be hypo most of the time unlike the others  maybe taste hyper.) she is probably hypo to pain but only bone pain and joint pain due to proprioception head and stomach organ pain is hell
Shannon- Pan/Bi sexual maybe romantic as well she may have some degree of spd ( wants deep hugs is a noise seeker, hypo to smell, taste and sight are hyper touch might be if in terms of crowding )or autism( hyper fixations and hypervigilance) to though I think her anxiety and paranoia and depression( the grief and anger is a bit bad) is more interesting. She has panic attacks. She might have something with Maddy almost definitely, but it could be a one off for both of them. The obsession comes from the trauma of the fire. Shannon is hyper sensitive to pain
Tom- probably has something like ADHD
All wolves have a spd
Jana might not be fully a girl same with Emilia and Robyn,
She also looks like she might have been abused in some way
Jeffery protects all of them when they seem weird to neurotypicals, and when they have no money, or a struggle at home.
They the three sometimes have nightmares ( PTSD like symptoms)
Rhydian to me seems like the least autistic in some ways at least sensorily and focus wise.
Every thing my gay brain wrote watching that episode

Growing up never being told I had dysgraphia was wild. I got diagnosed but my parents hid it from me. As they thought knowing might make me try less, and use it as an excuse.
Anyway this meant there's been times where I have questioned my ability to spell, and write completely. It was very hard, being so someone who would read constantly. But struggled to piece together words or would write them in the wrong order. That's not even talking about the wonky way my handwriting would shift constantly. It was very disheartening when all I wanted to do was write.
My Dad told me a while ago, he used to wonder if I was actually reading as much as it seemed. Because I would read a dozen books a week, and than prced to struggle with my spelling still. Which is silly when you account he knew I had dysgraphia, and I didn't. I'm mostly writing all of this to say, there are names to these things. That it's okay, it's not your fault your struggling.

My mum said "You have the vocabulary of a dictionary but you can't spell it."
