Everything is connected. And it has nothing to do with your learning disabilities. You need to learn to love yourself as you are, despite it all.

If you can do that - and I'm not saying it's the easiest thing to do - it takes time, it's a muscle you need to build, but it changes everything. So much of your question is about things outside of you. What other people think, what other people say, how other people see you.

The answers to this question are about you and your relationship to yourself. you get that right and the outside world really doesn't matter.

You need to listen to this and follow the advice- https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-mel-robbins-podcast/id1646101002?i=1000591862344

Here’s another one. I am a huge people pleaser and often when someone does something that really bothers me, in the moment I tell them it’s no big deal and not to worry, but after I end up frustrated with myself because I wasn’t as honest as I should have been. In the moment I truly feel like I’m saying the right thing though, it’s not until after that I get frustrated with myself for not expressing what I felt, but in a a reasonable way. How do you teach yourself to do that in the moment and feel comfortable enough to speak freely when it could be off putting to others?
