I'd like to introduce myself (self.Blind)
submitted by AutisticPearl
I don't know if this is a loud, and if it's not I'm sorry. So, here goes as you can see by my username I have autism, and I love Steven Universe. I am also deaf on my left side and I am completely blind on my left eye oh, if anyone is curious the disorder itself is myopic dysplasia. So, just wanted to introduce myself and say hello because I didn't know there was a subreddit for the blind also, I'm sorry if my post is run on I use speech to text.

Wonderful, Grand Theft Auto V I'm okay. I wanted to introduce myself because I didn't know there was a subreddit for the blind because me being stupid here a minute I didn't know that they're blind people could use read it at all I thought it was like Instagram when you couldn't use it because it's mostly picture. I can see in my right eye but I do want to learn technology things that I'm able to use like y'all said something at some point. So, I would like to share a little bit of information I learned recently you people may actually already know about this and if so my apologies but I am new to the what's available to me is a legally blind person world so I want to share what I learned number one once every 6 months to the National Federation of the blind get a few white cane I got my white cane now even though I have some Vision technically because I can see out of my right eye because I'm also deaf on the left side and also due to my autism which causes sensory issues I feel safer just having the cane so even if I don't technically need it where I'm going I feel safer having it on me so if I have to use it I can use it especially the lights go out or something I would definitely need it then because I can't see very well in the dark my problem is since I can't see very well to begin with but I have Vision in my right eye when the lights go out and it's actually his power outage lights out not just I turn the lights out or it's evening and the lights are out it makes it a lot harder for me to see because the one good eye has to compensate a whole bunch and it's hard for me to move around. I'm taking Hadley Braille courses, and through the national Federation of the blind you can also get a slate and stylus however I purchased mine because I wasn't aware and be because I was going to try to get a brailler but they're so expensive I wasn't allowed to purchase one of those but now that I found one that's around $60 I will purchase.

Hi Pearl! I am also deaf on one side and while I still have a lot of usable vision, one of my eyes gets ignored a lot among other issues. I’m a novice on Stephen Universe, but I’ve really enjoyed the little of it I’ve seen.

And just for clarification, your post is fine to me.
