🧩 Disabilities & what helps (more detail)

I live with Crohn’s, Autism, Dyslexia, and Dyscalculia. Here’s what helps me the most day-to-day:

• Clear, direct wording (no guessing games)
• Written follow-ups so I can re-check details
• One task/topic at a time when possible
• Extra care with numbers (dates, times, totals)
• Structure + routine where possible (a heads-up helps with changes)
• Flexibility on flare-up days (fatigue/pain can hit unexpectedly)
