What handdedness would you class me?

Hi,
I have been wondering this for quite some time. From a young age I was told by my parents that they noticed that I favored my left hand. While growing up they always tried to switch my pencil to my right hand as they did not want me to suffer in a right hand world. Now I have a ‘memory’ of me in school age about 8 and I am trying to decide what had to write with. I remember I would have to write with both hands and I would even swap sometimes when one hurt (had issues telling left from right at a young age due to this). I also had a speech issue at a young age as well and I fell that it was all rooted down to how my brain was developing my handedness (correct me if I am wrong).

After being told that using my right was the right thing to do by my teachers and parents, over time I began using my right hand to write (my writing is bloody awful by the way). That said, over time I have lost the ability to write like I did in the past with both hands. It’s not that I cannot but there an awkward feeling (so it could be possible to teach myself again but I am not sure).

I pretty much do everything with my Left hand, apart from write. I do use chopsticks when I am out with my right though. Most processes tend to favor my left. Football left, basketball left, golf left, pool left, fighting left. That said, a handful of things I do with my left, I can do with my right without much of an issue but I just favour my left. My left if probably the stronger arm though but I am equally strong on my right, just left has a better aim while my right can be a bit more precise at times.

So this is the issue that I have been having, trying to figure out what I am. Growing up I feel it has caused me to have some issue as a child and just want to see if other people had the same issues and what they would class themself as.

You are basically left handed. My mum was left handed and grew up in a convent. Because of this her right hand was tied behind her back until the nuns' saw her using her right for everything. It is wrong for anyone left handed to be treated different.
