What
is a learning disability, difficulties, special needs mental health, or mental
illness?
A learning disability is a condition that affects everyday life such as how someone does and cannot look after their health, how they cannot learn, and how they can and cannot manage their home, education, and work skills, which could be that they could be struggling with their housework, shopping, money, cooking; reading, writing, learning, understanding, forcing on what they need or and want to be learning. employment, special equipment, etc, socializing, etc, depending on the person, disability, and what they are wanting or and needing to do. However,’ as much as you do, people with disabilities have strengths as well as weaknesses, we have our abilities, which are our strengths. Therefore, let’s look at the support people may need. As I have already said people with disabilities and mental illnesses don’t enjoy depending on others. There are special tools and aids, but they cost but some are more costly than others, and not all help all needs because there are just so many.

A
learning disability and mental health problems can affect anyone at any time
and may be manageable with the right treatment. Learning disabilities reduce intellectual
difficulty affecting people’s abilities to manage everyday life skills.
Roughly
about 54 percent or more of people with disabilities, difficulties, and special
needs face mental illnesses such as Anxiety, Depression, and maybe more.
Learning disabilities and difficulties don’t happen to everyone but for those of us who it does happen to it can happen to anyone at any time, depending on I guess the type of disabilities and difficulties, which I will be going to say about soon.
What is
a learning disability, difficulties, special needs mental health, or mental
illness?
Not
everyone faces disabilities, difficulties, special needs, mental health, mental
illness, other problems, etc but for those of us who do, in the next paragraph, I
will say roughly when and how they happen, etc.
Disabilities,
difficulties, Special needs, mental health, and Mental illness can happen at
any time, before, during, or after birth, which could be caused by an
illness, accident, or injury, etc. If it happens during birth, it could be
caused by an illness, accident, etc the mother may face.
How it
affects peoples’ lives may depend on lots of things such as the type of problems,
what they cause, when they happened, how they happened etc. https://www.mencap.org.uk/?gclid=CL3C3M6o-qsCFcRO4QodcRHSlQ

Strengths and weaknesses can vary from person to person the same problems won’t always affect different people the same.
Autism. Autism is a long-term condition with different types of Autism, Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and Asperous Syndrome.
Difficulty
with socializing and communication.
Sensory,
feel, touch, sense, sound, smell, textures, etc. https://www.understood.org/en/articles/understanding-sensory-processing-issues
The
most common mental illness we face is Anxiety, Depression even ADHD, which may be linked. Some if not most people may have meltdowns if something has to
change or and stop. Most of us can be alarmed if we are taken out of our route or
and comfort zone or anything that happens unexcepted. Even changes for our own
good or and changes that we will like can be alarming mainly if something is
sudden.
