Hello My name is Ian and I'm 52. Just joined today looking for some support and hope. My tinnitus started 2 montgs ago, I think as a result of hearing loss due to hammering without ear defenders, although it was a couple of months afterwards that the tinnitus started. I also still have ear discomfort

Where to find a great life?
We just wondered whether anyone would like to recommend their local area for facilities and a great 'community feel' for adults with
learning
disabilities
? Or any really negative experiences?

Special school vs staying public for severe ADHD
We are debating whether to send him to a special school, which supposedly caters to kids like him, who have behavioral / social challenges but not
learning
disabilities
. We are fortunate that we have the choice to send him to a different school and could make it work financially.

Newborn failed hearing test twice and now referred to the audiologist….scared!
Hello ladies, my miracle daughter arrived on Friday 30th July and failed two hearing screening tests performed the day after on Saturday and today again on Tuesday. She was born via c section and I understand that this problem is quite common in babies born that way due to fluid in their drums. We have

Safe Internet Use
Hi, I'm a Community Enabler and have noticed how many adults I support with
Learning
Disabilities
have had negative experiences whilst using the internet. I found the SafeSurfing presentation on the Mencap pages. The video links aren't working, (for me). Could anyone help please?

Are there schools that understand how to teach kids with ADHD?
He has a 504 and because the school does not have "general ed" he has been in a class for the past two years with kids that have all types of
Learning
Disabilities
lumped together. He is supposed to go to the HS next year and he is in no way prepared for that. I need help.

Tinnitus on both ears with different noises?
Hi all, I wonder if anyone else has a tinnitus that comes and goes in one ear, giving a vibrating noise, almost as if the ear is fluttering/contracting? Mine is very inconsistent and when it comes, I’m completely dependent on brown noise sound machines to cope with it. The right ear gives a soft ringing

A DJs Story.
For as long as I can remember I’ve loved music, it fills my heart with joy. I love all types but especially house/dance music, I was a teenager during the early 90s when the scene exploded and became something fresh and new. In my early 20s I learned to DJ - all vinyl and I loved it, I became very good

New here! How normal is this?
I was diagnosed with a bacterial middle ear infection after I started getting persistent ear ringing for a few days. This was diagnosed over the phone by an ENT doctor so it's possible that I didn't actually have the infection. I was prescribed amoxicillin. Is it normal for the ringing to persist even

Help with depression and suicidal thoughts
Are there any resources that help people with
learning
and/or physical
disabilities
manage depression and suicidal thoughts? My brother is really struggling and I don't know how to support him.

Booking a Covid Vaccination on NHS website - impossible!
As I understand the latest JCVI guidelines, those with
learning
disabilities
are classed as part of “group 9” and should be booking their appointments. So how do those with
learning
disabilities
book if they cannot book via the NHS site?
