Dyscalculia: A World of Fun!

My 2nd video on dyscalculia and an update of MSU's RCPD (resource center for person's with disabilities) which is a joke. Anyone have legal advice? We plan on sueing soon since we've been passed around for the last year. Ridiculous!

I'm about to do this with my college....shit...man this is going to be "fun"

I hope this worked out for you....stick it to the man...lol

@cherrizs haha you might have a better school; MSU is full of ppl that need to retire or actually keep themselves updated on learning disabilities (had no idea what dyscalculia was lol!). Good luck to you! Definitely don't give up and be an asshole if needed :)

I have adhd and dyscalculia. In school I was teased for it. I was called slow, airhead and stupid. Once a teacher called me out in class and called me lazy in front of the whole class. I went home cried to my mom and told her what happened. She the next day went to school to confront my teacher.

Omg!!! One day you'll be older and come back to your high school and inform him/her of all the cool shit you're doing lol. That is so ridiculous. If I were your mother...oh boy. Momma Bear x 10! I don't know if you're in Michigan or not but most states offer a program or educational thing that you sign stating you have a disability; from there you can get a lot more help from colleges if you plan on continuing your education. Biggest thing is to document it as early as possible :)

I'm finally getting tested in 2 weeks & I'm nervous about it. I am 40 and I do not know what 7 x 8 is. I have many problems beyond Dyscalculia and it is getting worse for me. I have Anxiety and Manic depression and rarely leave the house anymore since I lost my job. I feel as though I am completely losing control of my life and I wish I had a friend to talk to, but I don't. I hope that one day there is help for those who suffer with this like I do. Thank you for fighting to help others.

@SonicDeeHedgehog I agree with you, it's the same with me..

Thats the problem. If you tell them you have dyscalculia, their "help" is to have you do hours and hours of math. They don't get that this just frustrates the hell out of you. No matter how much math I do, as soon as I take a break from it, everything I learned is forgotten. I could study really hard and learn fractions. But then I go on to algebra and as I'm learning that, I'm forgetting how to do fractions.

@Zukosgirl93 I'm finally gonna be tested for a learning disability. It only took my mother... oooh a fight with me about trying to convince her and 14 years to finally break and get me tested.(she's still not convinced, she still says i'm lazy) thanks mom, really. thanks.

How exactly do they test for this? Just yesterday I went in to get tested for Dyslexia and though I do show quite a few signs my doctor won't quite call it Dyslexia. He thinks I definitly have Dyspraxia, and, after research, I want to see him to get tested for Dyscalculia. I have to go back for further Dyslexia/Dyspraxia testing, so I will see then, but how do they test? Do I have to take a math test? If I do I will probably fail, which may be a good thing:)
