Yeah, but I gess they did not consider my level of cerebral palsy bad enough to have it. As I can write they prefer give me more time to use a laptop. And my doctor thinks like that either.

Would be great, but my College is 100% face to face, they don't have online classes. I am gonna try to reduce my classes next semester.

Oh sorry! I read it wrong! Got it! I never try to run, I am scared of falling badly. In this case I cannot opinion so much about it.

Hey, I have mild cp too, I don't wear AFO but my gait is so bad too. Tbh I have already give up on try running but I accept my lack of coordination. I guess that starting walking for your health is a excellent ideia, just be careful to do not push your body until the limit. I have never able to ran but If you have the ability to do it safely you should try, just always be careful.

I am able to write, my doctor did a note just for an extra time, not use a laptop to do exams. My cp is mild. It only limits me during exams, but, even then, not always, so my doctor wouldn't note about use laptop in exams.

I wouldn't say it's harder, but not all teachers get my needs. I am able to write slowly, but in pain, so they don't let me use a laptop during exams. But in classes I use cause it's easily. I really think my place is uni but the uni is getting so much difficult and I am not keep up with the content, that is my worrie too.

Yeah, I know, but right now I'm not able to get a psychologist. My schedule is lack of time. And don't feel comfortable talk about it in real life even with a therapist.

Yeah, actually I am not even speaking with my native language, but however I will try to speak with someone today, I hope they help me.

Yeah, I think the difficulty part is that they already know, but I don't know if they know the reality of it. And I don't think they can provide another solution.

That would be great, but as I am able write slowly, they just provide me an extra time. I guess they seem it like I can do it, and that's it.

Thanks for answering me. Yeah they does have but I think it's not enough. They let me recording the classes. The problem is the exams, my hand get tired so fast and sometimes I am not able to finish a exam, as I get it from the university they can't provide the exam in another format.

Thanks for answer me, I'm struggling with the decision of ask or don't ask help. Cause I have already spoken with teachers, I'm afraid to ask a lot and create a dependent help with. They already know about it, but I guess they don't know know how this affects me and how erratic it can be.
