So i have autsim and dyslexia, also depression and i just feel like a loser who cant do anyhting im trying not to think that way but its hard. i also spend most of my time indoor becasue i dont like going outdoors plus its hot out there.
Ive been wanting to make games or something like that but i litteraly cant code or understand it and ive been reserching game dev for mouths, i also feel like im very limited, like for example my pc is low end or tha tim too scared to drive and idk how to. I just want to do somet hign creative that i can show with others wihtout having to go outside. im kinda nerd but not a very smart one, so theres that.
why must life be soo hard and sad?
Im autistic and not currently dyslexic but have struggled with it in the past due to some other health issues.
Anyways, feeling you hard on this with the coding especially. I started trying to learn to code back in 98 I think with simple HTML as a kid. Failed. Python. Fail. Ruby slight success? BASH scripts. Fail.
I’ve always found it hardest that I can learn to read these languages but not write them. Same with German.
Arduino? Yes please. GRBL for CNC and 3D printers? All right that’s more me.
I’ve found it’s very important for my brain to have something “real” involved with the programming. Making a servo move or an LED blink clicks in my brain way better than an programmatic output on the computer.
You can get a desktop CNC or 3D printer for just a few hundred bucks to get started with a learnable platform. Or an arduino starter kit for 50$.
