Oh no, I made the mistake of scheduling two things outside the house today.. and both of them involve talking with people.

I seriously struggle with even "simple" math. Can't make change, have trouble reading analog clocks...forget maps & spatial things. Numbers are terrifying. Used to spend many homework hours screaming & hurling my textbook at the wall & sobbing over how stupid I was. I excelled at almost everything else, especially grammar, but math & numbers elude me to this day. I just cannot get them no matter how hard I try. I have to avoid them.
I saw this post & did not get it. While I have no sympathy for MAGAts, all the comments jeering about such stupidity...don't help for people like me who are just lousy with numbers. It doesn't mean we're idiots. We're just...idiots at math, I guess?
For what little it's worth I don't call people stupid for getting basic grammar wrong...
A few comments put it simply so I finally got it. Those well-meaning users were then jeered at for bothering to dumb down basic math. Sorry I'm a moron, I guess. #uspol #politics #disability

Things that disable me:
1. My muscular dystrophy.
2. Professionals who do not have muscular dystrophy deciding what features I can or can't have on my power wheelchair.

I’m looking for some advice from folks who have gone through university exams and the like.
I have an exam later in the day on Friday, during the time my mind and body usually require rest and I’m worried it will affect my performance. This is related to disability, so it’s not completely fixable or something the school can accommodate.
Any ideas on how I can try to keep my mind and body rested? I’m so tempted to study and review all day before, and I know I shouldn’t.
Help is welcome and appreciated. 
#MECFS #Disability #School
Edit: I had to defer this exam due to a new infection/illness. Thanks to those who reached out to help! Hopefully my rescheduled exam will be earlier in the day.
I am reminding myself that I can do hard things! I can do hard things, even when the hard thing is waiting for an email about the one class I need to finish a degree. Will I have to do the whole damn degree again? I left due to #disability #discrimination, and I'd really like to just finish the class and not have to get a lawyer involved.
But I'm from New Jersey, so I absolutely WILL get a lawyer involved.
Anyway. I can do hard things!
I'ma eat first though.

This is so fucked up, and I can’t share this with my partner who is applying for the working disabled social security program. Paul Aguilar, an AIDS activist and survivor, just had his social security payments stop, with 30 days to repay a 13 year oversight of overpayments…. About $200,000. WTF!? This is insane.
