Question 1 - What types of things do disabilities make challenging for you?

i find it most challenging keeping track of who i know and who is who when going places where people may recognize me but I'm seeing them out of context. I absolutely hate those moments when people come up to me in the student center to chat and it's clear they know me but i have no clue how we met, if we share a class, or if they know me from a previous class, what I'm supposed to know about them but don't because i have no memories tied with them, and they're asking questions contextually assuming i know where they know me from. Bonus points for awkwardness if they're my partner in class.

Gosh i need a button or something asking people to tell me their name and how i know them or something.... Like if i didn't care about people's feelings it wouldn't be a problem, but BECAUSE i care it hurts so much hurting others that feel close to me in some way but then finding out they look like a stranger to me... i wish i could have someone to follow me around telling me who i know >.<

Favourite subject - Chemistry - I just find it interesting.

Least Favourite - Math - I find it boring and the amount of homework can be annoying. Also really hard to type it out.

What I find most challenging at school is the basic moving and doing things, getting my laptop out my locker (I have a laptop to type on my hands suck), getting from class to class and holding things I need to use such as equipiment in science experiments. Another thing is how cold I can get as I can't control my body temperature and having to bring a blanket on me in winter.
