I have a severe learning disability (NVLD, basically the verbal equivalent of autism) and got mostly low Bs, high Cs in easy classes and low Cs and Ds in math and hard sciences. Never did homework because I could never learn things or commit them to memory

Somehow I did okay on the SAT which got me into my state university where I did just as poorly as I did in high school.

How do I go through life flying blind cognitively? I’m an animal that can talk. I barely feel human. Every day the thought of dying crosses my mind. My head is full of superstition and noise
