Learning to accept being a person with learning disabilities, you may be inclined to feeling as to deal with you learning disability is the right thing, but you must always have faith, honesty, love, and the right amount of understanding and patience as well as persistence in allowing you to be better in handling the right mood that allows you to have a good positive feeling about your condition and the way that you may influence others as well in life. There is a lot of things that might be said about people of a variety of numerous skills, and you must always remember to learn how to use your strengths and weakness to improve yourself and show yourself for the dynamic person who you are on the outside and in the inside. Because no matter what, you will be the reflection of the very light that you hold within and outside of yourselves.
1Have a lot of patience. Whether you are a person with a learning disability, or you either live with, work with, or socialize with a person with learning disabilities, understand that there is a lot of discrimination, intolerance, and general stigma against people with disabilities. Learning disabilities are considered "invisible disabilities," that is a disability which is not readily seen. People either shun and avoid, or they analyze or destroy that which they don't understand.
2Learn about the disability. Do what ever you can to learn about the disability. Go to the internet, libraries, and support groups. Ask specific questions. Know all you can so that you can understand when you are frustrated with the lack of knowledge of others, or when the person with the disability needs to talk or vent. You will understand enough to sympathize with them. (Sympathy is not pity.)
3Learn how to cope with your condition. If it is a friend or family member with a learning disability, the best thing you can do is to learn as much as you can about it, then be there as moral support. If you have a learning disability, make it a point to go to as many doctors, support groups, therapies, or other sessions as you possibly can. Ask questions until you understand the answers. Learn to read and write on a level that is comfortable, but challenges you more and more. Writing is not meant as scripting or scribing, but writing in a way that uses a constructive and artistic vocabulary. Construct a skill set and build on that.
4Be a problem solver. Use your skill set to think your way through issues. Turn problems into challenges to be conquered. Your way of thinking and solving may be very different from that of any one else, but it's your way. Develop it and use it.
- There is much to be considered as a person with a learning disability. There is always strength in a particular individual worthy of loyalty, respect, and sincerity who may allow you to be who you desire to be.
- Always remember who you are, and why you are here. Remember that having a weakness can be a strength and vice versa. There may be an interesting way to handle any learning disability as with any adversity. You just have to find that way.
- Having learning disabilities may not always be an easy thing to do.
