        Nah i just think of the people like me, that literally can’t write with the hand, and no it’s not a education issue, i have a motoric impairment in my hands.

            Its “not diagnosable”, the doctors just told me to “learn to write”…

            Writing isn’t even the only problem, I’m also having no feel for filigree works in general…

            Nowadays its just not bothering me anymore, besides putting my signature under stuff (tbh i usually use a stamp for that…) im not writing anything by hand.

              I have no diagnosis, but my hand starts hurting a lot and cramping up if I write for more than a couple of minutes at a time. If they made me handwrite essays, I would not pass the class.

                Hand cramping just shows lack of practice writing. Writing more will strengthen your hand and improve your motor skills, which is one of the main points of it.
