Hi everyone.

I have to apologise to all of you for my bad actions in past few years. I have communication problems. I have speech patterns and slow learning development issues. I do understand all of you friends have bad reaction against my issues because you guys don't know how to respond me. Now I started to realised that people weren't trying to be cruel or nasty at all. They are just don't know how to respond.

So, I done speech therapy and communication sessions with counsellors before. I don't know if I able to go back because of my recent D and HD grades of my academic work. This won't help me to get into sessions because they need evidence of my poor communication. So, now what the issue is just socially like being here on Weatherzone and outside out internet. My speech patterns affect a lot by my hearing loss because of the logical flow of communication (topic wise) and as well my hearing affects my reliability of what people are actually saying exactly.

So, I'm terribly sorry for all of this happens.

Mathew I have an exercise you might find interesting. Just something to ponder; this is not advice and you don’t have to do it – it’s up to you.

Picture someone you know really well, someone you like. Think about the time you last saw them. Now imagine a special day or event, maybe their birthday or an anniversary or some kind. Imagine all the nice things you would like to give them, and how you would like them to feel – positive things. Think of showing them compassion, that you accept them for who they are, warmth, being friendly to them.

Now imagine doing the same for yourself.

Ponder .

You do not have to respond to this…it’s just something to consider.

Hello Mathew, what you said in your opening post will possibly help people to understand a bit more of some of the things you have to work with. Keep trying because sometimes we have to be reminded that some people find it hard to do what many of us take for granted.

Cheers from Dave
