Apologies if this post offended you. But they make products and such that are made better for left handed folks than right handed. As of current, I can’t work on computers, craft, etc. So products like such

Im not offended, just confused. Because I was born left handed, I never taught myself how to use it, so I dont really know what I could offer you in terms of help to learn to become more left handed.

A few tips I guess. The word "ergonomic" typically just means "doesnt work for you, lefty," so avoid anything hand-held that labels itself as ergonomic. Writing in a 3 ring binder or spiral notebook is gonna suck a lot more now, but I suppose writing in general is gonna be a journey. Can openers, scissors, pouring ladles, angled spatulas, most musical instruments, sporting equipment, projectile weapons, etc etc; none of these are designed for you anymore, youll either need a lefty specific version or will need to adapt your use of these.

Im sorry about your injury. That sucks.
