I have ASD (autism spectrum disorder), so life isn't easy, but still enjoyable & fun in it's own way.

I believe in the theory of multiple intelligences, meaning everyone is smart different ways.

I think Mental Health is something that should be talked about more, & needs to be taken seriously, & not avoided. 2 Mental Illness that I have are Anxiety & Depression.

ASD (autism spectrum disorder):
Autism spectrum, also known as autism spectrum disorder (ASD), is a range of mental disorders of the neurodevelopmental type. It includes autism & Asperger syndrome. Individuals on the autistic spectrum often experience difficulties with social communication & interaction & may exhibit restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities. Symptoms are typically recognized between 1 & 2 years of age. Long-term problems may include difficulties in performing daily tasks, creating & keeping relationships, & maintaining a job.

Theory of multiple intelligences:
The theory of multiple intelligences differentiates human intelligence into specific 'modalities', rather than seeing intelligence as dominated by a single general ability. Howard Gardner proposed this model in his 1983 book Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences. According to the theory, an intelligence 'modality' must fulfill 8 criteria: Gardner proposed 8 abilities that he held to meet these criteria:
 * 1) potential for brain isolation by brain damage.
 * 2) place in evolutionary history.
 * 3) presence of core operations.
 * 4) susceptibility to encoding (symbolic expression).
 * 5) a distinct developmental progression.
 * 6) the existence of savants, prodigies & other exceptional people.
 * 7) support from experimental psychology.
 * 8) support from psychometric findings.
 * 1) musical-rhythmic,
 * 2) visual-spatial,
 * 3) verbal-linguistic,
 * 4) logical-mathematical,
 * 5) bodily-kinesthetic,
 * 6) interpersonal,
 * 7) intrapersonal,
 * 8) naturalistic.
