So I was just reading all of you all's posts, and I just am wondering if I have Mogigraphia.. I say this because, when writing papers for college, I have to stop like every 3 minutes or so and grab my hand and hold back tears because my thumb and other muscles in my hand hurt..
Should I look into this?

Found out today, I get 20% extra time and a break in the middle if needed. Just shows if you keep enquiring about something, you will get an answer as we have been trying to get this for 2 years now.
I sent in a whole bunch of paper work into my disability worker for my school, and they are allowing me more time and such. That will be A GREAT HELP! I'm also getting a thumb brace and I am hoping it won't hurt !

Yeah, I was pretty stoked about it. Whenever I write my hands cramp up so bad and almost literally bring tears to my eyes. But hopefully, that will get better with the braces and what nots!

Well, for my RS (Religious Studies) exam, I had to do an hours worth of writing, with the extra time, that came to about 1:15 hours. That helped sooo much!! It also helped with my Health and Social Care exam, as that was the same amount of time. I don't think I would of been able to finosh the exams without the extra time
Most of my college professors allow me to have my laptop in class to take notes on. That makes things a lot of easier.
But it's hard when I have math, especially a lot of it, because you don't do that on the computer, because it's really hard and time consuming to do that. Ugh. If only they made an easier way to do math for people like us!
