    I was diagnosed apd at age 9 or so in relation to some neurological disorders. But because I've never used medical services or supports and it hasn't really hindered me in any way or prevented me from doing anything I'm a pretty unlikely canidate for government help.

    A little bit about me :)

    I understood everything and I am hearing have been signing for about 2 years, all self taught. Only things I have to mention are to open your fingers when you sign the number 2 so it doesnt look like a U and also keep your numbers 1-10 palm facing forward. Great job and keep practicing!

    Okay c'mon guys shes new! Authentic's video was humorus for many of us but you did ask a valid question. There is a reason you dont know those signs. He is signing innapropriate things and saying they are everyday terms. So really, truly, dont pay attention to, or try to learn from, that...
