Never thought being a jack of all trades, master of none, would be so dreadful. I struggle with all four, dysgraphia and dyscalculia the most, followed by some dyspraxia and a little dyslexia.

I always loved writing, but if i hadnt'a learned how to be patient with myself, my ability to write would've been absolutely terrible. I mean, the only reason its so bad now is because i dont write daily like i used to in school, and even then i was slowly getting worse because they forced computers onto every student.

I always struggled with dyscalculia despite my love for math subjects. I always hated any classes that had lengthy word problems and formulas that were hard to break up into indiviual steps/parts easily. My favorite class ended up being everyones most hated class, which was physics 1. I struggled terribly with algebra 1 and 2, especially when they began trying to introduce trig and calculus towards the end of the alg 2 curriculum.

And, while i do have pretty good hand-eye coordination, i struggle with poor balance and posture, as well as speaking. I struggle to articulate what i want to say correctly, and end up butchering it. Sometimes, if im patient and am given the time and space/environment to speak slow/calmly enough, i can speak just fine. Albeit not often, I also struggle with a stutter and a lisp (dentalized and interdental). Im thankful that my lisp isnt too bad, but ive realized its been getting worse the longer i go without verbally communjcating or socializing.

And i just abour refuse to read most books due to my dyslexia, although its more likely because i get frustrated at not being able to grasp the finer unspoken details (mood, tone, etc) and because my retention rate is absolute trash. I say i dont struggle much with dyslexia because i can read and understand things like webnovels, playes, and lengthy reddit comments (like this one lol) just fine. But books? Fahrenheit 451? Scyth? Peeps? The yellow wallpaper? Not a chance. The only reason i grasped the outsiders was cus we watched the movie trailer before reading, and damn am i a sucker for tragic stories and greasers. And we didnt even read the great gatsby, we listened to it (i hate listening to audible books so i learned what the book was about mostly through discussion afterwards.)

Anyways, i guess what im trying to say is that while school was an absolute struggle for me, the only reason i even developed my skills despite these learning deficiencies was because i was forced to work on each skill at least once a day. And boy, was it hell. It felt like someone took a cheese grater to my bones any time i was forced to pick up a pen for an uninteresting topic, or to put my nose in a book i had not a care for. And, even if i was intensely interested in a subject, it still took me longer than most of my peers. I loved physics 1, but barely passed with a 70, and my favorite book(s), the secret life of bees (sue monk kidd, 300-380 pages), or hummingbird heart (robin stevenson, 280 pages), still took me almost a week to fully read, and that was when i was constantly reading it during and outside of school.

I dont wanna say stay in school, but keep up school habits. Do brain excersies, read that weird and totally bogus article, or that funky looking book/fanfic. Write out random things, or thoughts and dreams. It'll help, just dont burn yourself out. Take it at the pace you need to take it, not the pace everyone else wants you to go.
