RTS is a beautiful thing! You will learn so much from your loved one or self. Just because your physical features are different and your mind is not "typical" you will be able to look at life from a different angle.

Every person with rts is different the syndrome can range from mild to severe. Treat accordingly and take things one at a time. Those with RTS are usually very happy and easy to get along with. They are very sensitive and caring. Speech delay or being nonverbal can lead to frustration for the child or adult and sign language will be very helpful in the long run. Some with RTS have a very weak immune system and there bones are easily broken (Just bumping into a doorway had my son in a cast with 4 broken toes). Having a weak gait makes it a bit harder to walk ,my son has a side to side waddle but can walk fine on his own but with close supervision

You have the urge to do things and I always try to, with the support of their people nearby and don't be afraid never to make friends.
