If we’re supposed to believe that there’s all these disorders that prevent people from functioning as normal, why do we also have to pretend that these people are just as good as the rest of us and have the right to vote etc? Seriously either cope with what’s wrong with you or stop pretending like you’re my equal

This is part of why I hate nerds. Wow I’m so much smarter than everyone else but oh I’m useless and can’t even solve a simple integral. Durr.

Sometimes I used to switch numbers around accidentally, but other than that I’m good at math and all that means is that I had to exercise more attention to detail when working problems.

Kinda resolved itself. Wonder what kind of clusterfrick my life would be if I let some bluehair convince me it was a disability and the only thing for me to do was NEETmax and collect SSDI.

I was shit at math but I studymaxxed when I was 16 because I wanted good standardized test scores so I could get money

I switched every thing around. Then I started investigating and tabulating every error I made in a notebook and wrote down what kind of error I made. Within one week I was 30-something% better at math despite barely understanding the concepts better. I just became more consciously aware of not missing negative signs until it became an internalized behavior I didn't have to think about.

Oh I definitely had dyscalculia as a child but just like with dyslexia you have to push through it and work extra hard on it instead of becoming complacent and whining about it.

This reminds me this month I found out that I am not actually r-slurred. I just had self esteem so low it was affecting my thinking ability.

People always talk about "normalise this" and "destigmatise that" - maybe it's time to normalise being fricking stupid. Destigmatise intellectual inferiority.

I sucked at math for my first few years in school, then I learned to pay attention, how apply the knowledge I was receiving, how to ask for help when I didn't understand something, and that to get good at anything, I'd need to spend some time of my own practicing it. Years later, half of all my working days are spent doing reasonably advanced math. There's no pathology at work here, if you just stop being a frickup, and focus a bit, things generally work out.

Math books can get fricked when they used t as a random variable. A handwritten t looks like a + unless you get all fancy with it. Likewise, using x as a random variable.

Dyscalculia is a thing, but most people who think they have it are just r-slurs who got diagnosed because their mum couldn't accept her shit parenting and chronic vino addiction resulted in a sub-average kid.

Every problem is another mental illness. Like collecting badges lmao. Heaven forbid people take some responsibility or face the fact that they may need to work a tiny bit harder than others to be good at something.

Let me get this straight. In your tiny worldview - people acknowledging, accepting, and understanding their mental illness is a bad thing? It's not always solved by "working a tiny bit harder". Sometimes it's a disability/illness that requires learning how to approach something completely differently. People like you that assume that mental illness/disability is the evasion of responsibility and work is pure idiocy.

Having a mental disability isn't fun. Not being able to see things in the same way or approach problems in a way normative society dictates is acceptable isn't convenient. People like you that stigmatize mental issues are a huge contributor to this ridiculous perception.

At least educate yourself before making absurdly stupid statements like this.

not disagreeing with u but the post- its not even a mental illness. its neurological. they have it all wrong

:marseynotes: what's the difference? I thought all mental illnesses were neurological.

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

nope. theres psychological (most mental illnesses), and neurological. for example schizophrenia and adhd are listed as both psychological and neurological because the symptoms fall into both categories, and are partly caused by structural issues in the brain

Jump in the discussion.

The psychological precedes the neurological. Neurological changes are a result of altered behavior/thinking aka psychology.
