[quote=Anonymous]Today, I was told by my therapist that I should be tested for a learning disability(LD). I consider myself to be quite intelligent. According to my therapist, LDs have nothing to do with lintelligence. She even noted that some PHDs have LDs. After having issues at work because of my writing, coupled withy acceptannce of my lifetime struggle with my writing, especially in undergrad and grad school, I am considering getting tested. If I am diagnosed/labeled with a LD, I'm wondering how can this impact me parenting, professional (present and future); getting supplemental disability insurance, as well as other ways I haven't considered. It would be helpful to hear from someone who knows from experience either personally and professionally. [/quote]
