New Group for Writers With Learning Disorders · 8:32am Oct 28th, 2013
Hey guys.
I've created a new group for those of us who have it a little more difficult than others when it comes to learning, reading, writing, etc.
So if you've got ADHD, Dyslexia, or anything else, come one down! And if you're unsure about whether you should join, join anyways!

Unlike Derpy here, everyone's invited and you don't need a ticket!

Hmm, interesting. I don't have any learning disorder, but it is really cool to see you doing this.

Yeah, I think my ADHD and whatever else I may have is why I have such an incredibly difficult time writing.
I'm currently looking into getting seen and checked out to see if I have anything else wrong with me. It sucks that I've been diagnosed with ADHD for 4 years now, and yet I've never actually had any "help" other than the medication my doctor gave me. So I figured that if I can write a story that reaches number 1 on the site despite my disadvantage, then maybe others can too.
Does Autism,Schizophrenia,Bipolar Disorder,And Dissociative Identity Disorder, count?

Are they learning disorders? If so, sure. If not, join anyways!

Well it is quite hard to focus when your emotional state flips 180 degrees at seemingly random points of time, even more so given then when one shifts personalities they forget around 80% of what they were doing and or thinking in their previous state. And when one is forced to seperate the many aspects of ones mind, often in such emotional turmoil that they can barely find the will power to stand up, it is kind of hard to read,write, or do anything really.

As founding officer, I say join!
an interesting idea for a group, I think it's awesome that you're doing this, it's very nice of you, though I'm stuck wondering what the group is trying to do... like is it a place where one can find help, or inspiration, or editors willing to work with pieces written by people with severe dyslexia? I have ADHD and my main problem is finding the inspiration to keep writing or even start writing. I think it's also the knowledge that you have to work a lot harder to get it done that makes writing such a daunting task, for me anyway.
But I've joined and can't wait to see how this group turns out
