You're a genius for researching a condition, in order to spread awareness. Absolutely brilliant. Thank you.
I was diagnosed when I was 12, In school the Math teacher tought I was lazy and I could not explain her how hard it was to me. One time I played a game that was with money and I could not do 200-70 and someone laughed at me.
what does 200-70 mean
@@Hepoxni 200 minus 70
Do not ask me why that took me 4 mins to get that and I am diagnosed-
I understand you. Math teachers need to be aware about this. My teachers don't get me at all
this is literly my life too.....I started to cry....seriously at the part when you said that ppl think that dyscalculia in my head isn't as serious as dyslexia well....its so true dude your not alone...I'm just like you atm
my teacher asked me what 1 times 4 is and I answered 0 the class started to laugh at me and calling me an idiot
or wait it was 1 times 1...... :/
I might not have this problem but I'm glad I could make it as realistic as possible so that more people will know that this is an actual problem and won't laugh but understand. be proud of who you are you are and don't be ashamed everyone has weaknesses just some aren't strong enough to show it.
thanks buddy :)
I’m sure many of us with Dyscalculia or a self diagnosis of Dyscalculia have had traumatizing experiences in school and in public with math/ numbers or directions.
Seeing this helped me come back to earth and realize that I’m not alone, and that I’m not crazy. People who don’t know about Dyscalculia tend to gaslight us and make us think that our problems are all in our head. We are not alone!
I don’t like having discalculia bc it makes me feel imcompent. I mess up time sheets and can’t help it.
Thank you for all your support I hope that not only this video was for more people to know about Dyscalculia but for those out there to know that they are not alone please like share comment lets spread the word one person at a time!:)
you're not alone dude trust me
You're not alone. Sadly there will alwayds be an ignorant disablist out there!
I LOVED watching the video. Thanks for your time and work on it. You're a good film maker.
Know youre smart and this isn't a reflection of your intelligence. Own it.
Don't worry. WE know. It is this sad disablist attention craver who thinks dyscalculics want a pity party!
Thank you for making this video. I'm an adult with dyscalculia. I can relate. I've found it helpful to focus on my writing and creative strengths to make a living. This disability does not define you. Many of us with this disability have a very high intellect with writing, art and creativity. This is where you can find success. I started the "dyscalculia math" Facebook page. I also have made videos about my life with dyscalculia. More information needs to get out there about this disability. You are right - people don't think that someone with Dyslexia is stupid. People understand it. Start focusing on the gift that you can give the world. What are your strengths? Life can still be good even with dyscalculia my friend.:-)
Michelle : The guy who made this hasn't got dyscalculia which is why he presents it as a tragedy! He needs to grow and learn he is being as inappropriate as if he said it was a tragic disease! I'm used to cerebral palsy being treated like this but DYSCALCULIA? Give me a break!
Actually emotionally to me it has felt EXACTLY as he portrayed it in the film. He does an amazing job.
I'm exceedingly good with words and I recently found out I have dyscalculia,but I decided that I'm gonna overcome it instead of going with 1 of my strengths. Since I REALLY want to be a clinical psychologist,k found an app called Math & Logic
I have dyscalculia I feel you I totally understand it hurts the way if I ask someone do you know what it is they have no idea but when I ask about dyslexia they all know I think people should learn more about peoples disabilities and not make fun of people who have a learning difficulty I was diagnosed at 9 I'm 14
And driving standard while the world has moved on to automated cars, flying cars. Always a step behind, or more than just one.
You captured our struggle pretty accurately, especially the dialing a number part, feeling stupid and having a noticeable disability.
Thank you for supporting our cause (:
Hope you get more views!
Yes don't be ashamed of who you are and spread the word the world needs to know more about things like these :) and Thank you! It would help if you shared !
I have dyscalculia too. Iv`e always been very slow at learning any math concepts. I know enough to get by in life but I can`t do very many calculations in my head. I only know a few of my times tables and even addition and subtraction are tricky sometimes. I`m an adult now and I`m still not much better at Math than I was in elementary school. I remember every science fact in the world, I`m an avid reader, ect. I can do any thing else except math. I`m happy to know I`m not struggling alone.
Interesting that YOU need people to share YOUR video about a condition they have and you don't! WHAT the hell makes yyou thinkwe need patronising. What next? A video on "Why POC Need White Folx Help"
SEE YOUR ISSUES PLEASE!
The guy doesn't have it!
I can relate so much to this , i was diagnosed with this when I was 14. its hard living with it
I know this is hard I might not have Dyscalculia but I feel more people should know of this that way they will be able to gasp at least a little of what you go through every day so that they under stand that you are different and don't be ashamed of it spread the word and make Dyscalculia known :)
I was diagnosed when I was 11, I know how hard this can be too
No one is ashamed of it! Or tehy should not be! people like you perpetuate ablism in that you believe peopop;ele should feel shame and do feel shame! Make a video about your own issues by all means but why make one about something and give it a 'personal' voice?
That's patronising disablist and arrogant!
No matter how many times I learn something in math I always forget how to do it
SkizzeHDTV hey I’m probably wrong but math isn’t for everyone we all have strengths and weaknesses math isn’t my strength but I do have other areas where I’m better in sure you do too
Eddie Galvan yeha I get all A’s except for math where I get D’s and F’s
Just like my story my man... Just like my story...
Your not alone man your not alone keep strong
When I was in school, I was SO bad at maths! I even ended up with an F as my final GCSE exam result. The teachers and pupils just thought I was dumb. I even thought I was dumb! The numbers would just totally confuse me and all mix up in my head. As a 23 year old now I'm not so ashamed of myself as I'm understanding dyscalculia. Not many people have even heard of this. So I really hope the word spreads out wide :) Even writing the date is difficult to me, I know the date, but the numbers just won't go! I barely know my times tables- apart from 5's and 10's, and I can't add up to save my life!
I was tested for dyscalculia because I struggled with math my whole life.I am not Dyscalculic. But my math difficulties are so severe that sometimes it looks like it.I also have ADHD,Hearing loss and memory issues etc..I hate Math.I never really understood math
Robert Hosein every one has strengths and weaknesses math might not be many people’s strengths but I’m sure you do have some strengths in other areas don’t focus on your weaknesses but you strengths!
Thank you Eddie. It's so inspiring to see the desire to step in another persons shoes; to make an attempt at understanding. You captured the feeling well. BTW I looked at your channel. I'm here because my camera broke and I need a new one. How frustrating to love photography with dyscalculia. I also love psychics, chemistry, electricity and astrology. I keep trying to grasp it all without being able to recall mathematical relationships. I use cheat sheets to remind me of the distances involved in light/radiation impacting the ionosphere. Light and sound - all measured in wavelengths and oscillations and given designation according to the language in each realm of study.
Translations of temperature, millimeters vs inches, kilometers vs feet. How do I visualize distance? I use a football field or the building I live in. It's 60 feet long. To understand a mega-zoom lens, I convert meters into feet and relate it to things I know. A yardstick, 36 inches or 3 feet, half a football field, an acre. These are things I can visualize.
Oh well, thanks for the fish. Er, I mean thanks for the rant!
Inspiring ? The guy doesn't have it! How is it a good thing that he made something like this? Can't you see he is just self promoting his drama skills?
It’s not just about numbers. That point needs to be printed onto cards and handed to people who think it is.
I face the same problem. I live in fear all the time and isolate myself to save myself from embrassment. Life with dyscalculia is very depressing and stressful. I avoid calculations and numbers as much as possible but on unfortunate occasions when I come across calculations I become numb and start panicking and feel absolutely blank, utterly embarrassed. It's a curse to have this disability. I wish to live in a world without numbers.
Frizzy freak me too
Yep I literally have to make myself happy some days.
I am 17 and havent been diagnosed with this but i am 99 percent sure i have it i go to church every week i leave a early so ill be there on time and end up there almost a hour early i hate math because i can never rember what the formula is or how to do times i have to look at my clock almost every 15 minutes because i cant rember what time i said it was after i just told someone i feel really dumb compared to everyone else because i cant do math my parents get mad cuz i have to check my money i save up every day because i forget how much i had i wanna do photography but i always get the picures printed off the wrong size
you are pretty smart dude, just use your fingers, 10,9..etc. You answered 21 because you have taken too much responsibility, got shy, thought too much about time pressure, face loss, and different other things except the calculating methods. It is all about the methods man believe me. You are much more smarter than you think and you know it
I feel ya bro
Could you possibly make this video anymore depressing? I have the condition but I am a much more optimistic person and I was relieved when I learned about dyscalculia because it helped me understand why I can't handle driving (or walking) directions and why so many other tasks are nearly impossible. So I focus on those things I do really well
I have discalculia and I thought I was stupid at first realised I wasn't
I'm so sorry... I struggle with math as well. ( still trying to get into college and pass the darn math portion.)
Keep your head up bro!!!
I'm a fellow dyscslculiac. However, I pronounce it like this: Dis- Kal- Kue-Lee-Uh. or Dis-kal-Que-lee-uh.
Yep: The guy who made this hasn't got dyscalculia which is why he gets it wrong and presents it as a tragedy! He needs to butt out of other people's disabilities.Is there a word for being boring as hell? He's got that!
I found the video to be a perfect example of how I feel about having dyscalculia. I think he did an amazing job with the video.
53 here, remembers rushing out to buy the telephone that remembered the numbers for me. One problem solved, too many more exist
I also have dyscalculia and I'm 14 years old and it mostly affects me with lines and motorstic drawing
Just be glad you dont have dyslexia along with Dyscalculia ,alot of people are diagnosed with both .
Great video
Kek part of my life in a literal nutshell.
I'm glad you can relate and know your are not the only one there are many out there some with less and others worse
😭😭😭this hit me hard
I can relate to EVERYTHING you said :(
I was diagnosed today... over the phone they said I have to take special math classes:(
i have dyscalculia but i can drive will :)
im also adhd .
I have ADHD, Dyscalsculia, and Grammar Pedantry Syndrome
i see where you took the 9+10 joke from
i relate bro.
I have trouble with math too
Tune in son, it's not that difficult, you just have to try. I remember when I wasn't able to understand math, but I asked people to teach math to me, I learned from one family member who was kind to help me, now I know more than Einstein
thats the worst things you can say
Enjoy? I have dyscalculia and I'm appalled by this frankly insulting ablist garbage! Make your photography career on your own proiblems, my friend! As for using words like 'dumb" in a disability context - go away and clean up your act as a disability ally before you try to advance someone else's cause! How to prepetuate ablism against mutism and the Deaf community! UGH!
