Nonverbal Learning Disability

It may be difficult to diagnose nonverbal learning disability. The characteristics of a child with nonverbal learning disability are clues doctors, teachers and parents should learn to recognize.

I describe some ways to help with academic performance, which I think will help people with NLD, or maybe other LDs as well.

I describe ways to cope with sensory overload, using the analogy of a mountain.

I describe ways over, around, and through the mountain of NLD for socialization problems.

I begin what will be a long series on nonverbal learning disabilities

I describe the stages through which I passed (sometimes more than once) in coming to terms with my nonverbal learning disability; this is how I did it, your mileage may vary.

This is another look at NLD, but with a more descriptive and "elemental" breakdown of some of the specific difficulties common among those with this learning/neurological impairment.

This is a slightly more comprehensive treatment of my 'misconceptions' article dealing with the same subject.

An article about nonverbal learning difficulties/impairment that presents as an opinion piece, but which is backed by factual verification, personal experience, and exposure to primary "evidence".

This is a very personal piece about living and dealing with Nonverbal Learning Disabilty, and how it can mess with you in ways that make you resent your gifts for what they do to hide your HUGE deficits from your average judgmental dumbass.

I describe how my PDA helps me organize my life

This is a piece that pains to describe some of the aspects of living in a world that for we with NVLD is endlessly ambiguous, way too visual, mercilessly rushed, and way to judgmental.
