I have the following: OCD, ADHD, Aspergers, Bipolar Disorder, Astigmatism, Depression, Anxiety, and some weird disorder that makes me really sensitive emotionally (can't remember the name).I know this may not play into anything, but for the majority of Grade School, I was in Special ED.
But you still became a Navy SEAL!

Nothing wrong at all, I am perfectly normal in every way.
No that's shite. I'm fine except for;
- Short term memory problems
- I have gynemimetophilia
- I am an Attention Whore with a bit of Narcissism.
- Given any authority I have control issues and mild megalomania.
- Working on uneven anger management with bursts of rage.
- Regular amount of PTSD from various strenuous activities in the past.
- Occasional bouts of self-destructive tendencies
Now on to the physical...
- Years of sleep deprivation
- I have a torn retina in one eye
- Bad knees/ligaments
- I have shrapnel in my shoulder that cannot be removed
- Bad shoulder (the other one)/dislocations
- various broken fingers that won't close all the way
- slight loss of hearing in one ear

I have Bell's Palsy. Though it rarely ever flares up and only lasts for a week. I'm pretty fortune for that. It's only flared up maybe 3 times in my life.
Well, this probably doesn't count as a disability, but, at last count, I've had 159 stitches throughout my life, along with multiple broken bones, torn muscles etc. I've even had a very mild skull fracture after going head first into a brick wall (long story). And had my one eye mangled after getting smacked in the face with a cricket bat (it's mostly recovered since then though, but I have "floaters" in that eye because of the damage at the time). No idea if any of these things are going to come back to bite me in the ass as I get older.
I do have really bad insomnia though, which I have struggled with since early childhood.
^^^Jesus, the disorder you have is you’re accident prone!
According to one site:
Accident-proneness, also known as clumsiness, is the idea that some people have a greater predisposition than others to suffer accidents, such as car crashes and industrial injuries. It may be used as a reason to deny any insurance on such individuals.
I mean, if it can deny you getting insured, i’d say it kegit qualifies as a disorder.
Eh, some of it was bad luck and some of it was just stupidity on my part (I grew up in the Jackass generation). But it can be an amusing source of freaking people out. For example, if someone touches my forehead on the right side, they can physically feel the small bump and then dip in the bone where I smacked my head into the wall, which is an everlasting reminder of that moment in time. Or my biggest scar (a 50-stitcher). Freaks squeamish people the phuck out when they encounter it lol.
