There could never be amore beautiful you
Don't buy the lies, disguisesandhoops they make you jump through You were made tofill a purposethat only you could do So there could never be amore beautiful you -Johnny Diaz Everyday is so wonderful And suddenly it's hard to breathe Now and then I get insecure From all the pain, I feel so ashamed I am beautiful no matter what they say Words can't bring me down I am beautiful in every single way Yes, words can't bring me down, oh no So don't you bring me down today To all your friends you're delirious So consumed in all your doom Tryin' hard to fill the emptiness, the piece is gone Left the puzzle undone, ain't that the way it is? 'Cause you are beautiful no matter what they say Words can't bring you down, oh no You are beautiful in every single way Yes, words can't bring you down, oh no So don't you bring me down today -Christina Aguilera |

Mostly mental. Not many physical..actually none physical unless you count that I broke my leg a while back. But I have OCD, depression, panic attacks and anger issues.

I have dyslexia. I just learn differently then everyone else, sometimes its really hard to find the right way for me to understand something, sometimes is takes a few try's. I am wonderful in english; I will be majoring in Journalism.. But I am horrible in math..it is my biggest weakness.
It's not that bad though, I have learned to live with it, I even joke about it sometimes with my friends lol. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may mean the world.

Physical.
I was born with a blood disorder. It was highly expected that I wasn't going to live for more than a week or two max, however, an anonymous donor, who I will never know, but love, saved my life. Because of this, my legs didn't do as they were meant to. But between grade 2-3 Summer holidays, I had the best time of my life ever, getting the disability cured. Still to this day, my legs are 'underaged' since I was in a wheel chair for my first year of school. Before that and grade 1 and 2, I didn't do a whole lot of walking/running/etc. But now I'm on the top of the world, and not letting my disability effect me. Been 11 years with no problem. Lovin' life. :] |

I was born completely blind (I was born premeaturely, I was born only at 22 weeks) I use a screen reader to use the computer, it is a program that takes what is on the screen and reads it aloud. I love using my screen reader and hate how some websites don't follow the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) and the UN Convention on The Rights of Persons with disabilities (President Obama just signed this recently) These two pieces of legislation state that websites have to, or should be, accessible to screen readers and other assistive technology such as magnifyers. It's sad to know that when people create sites, they don't think of those that use other ways of viewing it, they think of design and visual stuff before they think of accessibility. (This is just my oppinion based on what I've noticed during my time of browsing the internet) It's not the creator of the websites fault or those that manage it, it's just they don't know that the site isn't fully accessible.

Anxiety Disorder and Dysthymia Depression... But I'm not sure whether those are "disabilities" or not, they do sometimes affect my ability to function normally though, especially the Anxiety.

I dont count my mental health problems as a disibility. But I do have Joint Hypermobility Syndrome, it's a pain in the butt.
