I've mentioned in passing before now that I have a learning problem - condition, disability, whatever you wanna call it - called dyscalculia.
So I figured it was about time (ha, you'll see why that's a pun soon,) that I let you know what that entails, and why that means I struggle with a lot of things that most people find easy.

So, what is dyscalculia?
In its simplest explanation, dyscalculia is the maths version of dyslexia.
It affects numeracy, rather than literacy, and also affects a lot of things related to mathematical ways of seeing the world that most people don't actually associate with maths.
