    I've read the whole conversation and I can share my experience :)

    I'm a psychologist, I have a Master degree course in Specific Learning Disabilities. I work with kids from 8 to 18, to help them improve their abilities (reading, calculating, writing...) and help families with compensatory tools and dispensatory measures at school. 

    SLD are not a consequence of trauma or PTSD. They are neurobiological disorders, from birth. That's different from mutism, which it could be a consequence of a traumatic event.

    In my opinion, from what he has said, Mika is dyslexic and maybe he's also disortographic. Now he probably has found right strategies to avoid his difficulties in his job and in his everyday life as an adult :) brain matures, even if SLD are "for life". 

     

    Thank you @Lalli  for your testimony.  :flowers2:
     

    Working with adults, there are several theories that emerge. Either dyslexia causes post-traumatic stress disorder or post-traumatic stress disorder causes dyslexia (or Alexia).
    This was realized by finding some cases of dyslexia among veterans or firefighters.
    Alexia as well as Aphasia are sometimes a consequence of great stress.
     But work continues in this area.

    It seems a sweet thing, like pumpkin dessert (Idk you know it maybe it's just Turkish dessert)

    How can you open it? Isn't it sinks the fingers?

    It's a sea animal. In many countries where it is eaten, it is opened in half like a boiled egg and eaten with a teaspoon. It is an expensive and refined dish.

    It's a bit like eating caviar in the mouth, it's slightly salty and delicate.

    To hold it, we take a towel or be careful.

    It's an animal you eat alive or you burn it alive first, like in the video.

    Conclusions: 

    Although it is impossible to know the subjective experience of another animal with certainty, the balance of the evidence suggests that most invertebrates do not feel pain.  The evidence is most robust for insects, and, for these animals, the consensus is that they do not feel pain6.

    Oh, I didn't know that.  I thought it was a condition you were born with. 

    Perhaps, that's why he knew how to read and play the piano before he was harassed and became mute.Even adults after post-traumatic stress can become dys(lexic, calculus or other).

    Mika claimed to be dyslexic, but there is some doubt about this as he seems to have been able to read OK as a young child.  But if you see his handwriting there seems to be evidence of a problem with reading/writing/spelling.

    Dyslexia can occur after post-traumatic stress disorder, and he had many of its features.

    Since Mika is here I'm visiting too and I have an automatic vaccuum cleaner with me because it must be dusty in here ...I mean in the NC :facepalm:

    And with comments like that, you want me to believe that you don't detect the double meanings of the songs every quarter turn!  :biggrin2:

     

    Anyway, you're right, black holes attract everything, even dust!

    I've created a video to "Sound of an Orchestra" using Mika's IG stories.

    (well I think one part is from one of Mika fans from Milano, but I don't know who posted it).

    To avoid that Youtube blocks this video I put it on "non public", so I am not sure if you can open it.

    Please let me know.

     

     

    That's so sweet!  :wub2:

    You must have spent some time there!

    I have a conductor in mind for the clarinet / hand part, and stomping feet for the timpany. I know Mika is the king of innuendos, but this connection you make is too explicit, in my opinion, it goes too much into detail to be on purpose, if you know what I mean. :mf_rosetinted:

    Of course I can't be 100% sure, but well... in case you're right, we'll never know anyway, as I guess he won't talk about that in an interview. :mf_rosetinted:

    "Boom boom boom " is also very explicit; and it is used for TV programs including "Stasera casa Mika".
     One day, in a few years, a young fan will ask him the question and he will answer it all embarrassed as he did this summer in Italy for "Lollipop". :biggrin2:
