Well done that man, both my nephews have dyslexia and passed uni also not sure of the grading system my brother said they got top grades, but knowing him they could have had bottom grades! Did you have to give him extra tuition at home or privately? My sister in law spent many hours as she...

Thanks for sharing, many of what you said is similar to my days, I did question when I moved up to high school why was I with people I never really thought was on the same intellectual level. It was clearly my dyslexia and ADHD that the teachers could not work out, because of this they branded...

Brilliant, I give to great ormond street often they are an amazing hospital, and I have a special connection to them.I bet you're proud.👍 I know of her persistence as many dyslexic have it in spades because they have had to or they get brushed away as fools by those that feel they are superior...

Its totally the wrong answer to have all these turbines, I'm wondering how labour voters will like it when they spoil beautiful Britain and it's birds.

You're right. I make all of those and more the consistency is all over the shop due to my lack of focus my ADHD. I sometimes might say wait I am coming to pick you up (within a text) and another day I could accidentally say weight I am coming......... I know the spelling but I switch off for a...

Please can you explain how this effects you in an everyday situation? I don't know much about dyspraxia.

I get the way how you say it worse when fatigued, that's where the suspicious ones on here are unable to understand how the brain works and accuses me of faking it, I am just very inconsistent in all parts of admin. One moment I can look typical the next I can look almost illiterate. Not sure I...

Well I am in that 196,000, not because I want the diagnosis, because I know I am, but I would like to turn down the noise from time to time, even if I have to take prescribed drugs. I think COVID was a big factor in quadrupling the list and fast moving stuff like tiktok has driven the kids epidemic.

Yes, unfortunately waiting lists are high. I will pm so we can discuss, I am not a Dr but I may have a few useful things to help.

Does anyone know anybody that actually takes prescribed drugs for their ADHD? If so do they like the new them? Does it calm themself to a level of boredom or can they adjust it. Also has their admin accuracy and speed picked up.

Finishing her nursing degree is massive mate, congratulations to her, I bet your proud. That was very productive for the school to actually action that as I know many that prefer to turn a blind eye to the A graders. She has a load of skill that will be suitable in nursing, but I hope they can...

I know there are things that help dyslexia, but sometimes they do and sometimes they don't, as you still need to read it, sometimes I will copy and paste it and play it back which is helpful for comprehension for me as long as my ADHD focus is good enough at the time. Well done for the pass...

Well that is interesting, as I am actually very good at arithmetic, but everyone assumes I'm not, because of my written abilities. I don't know many with this as a stand alone. If you don't mind me asking, does this effect you much in everyday life?

Do you also joke about other disabilities? if I told you I had a brain injury which effected my spelling, because I was saving an old lady from a mugging would you still joke? Grow up.

Can I ask while you feel you are slightly dyslexic? I know it sometimes hard to speak out about it, so pm if you like.

As a kid, I knew I was lower to bottom of the class with English. Teachers would chalk up paragraphs on the blackboard, for pupils to copy in there text books, could they do anything worse! The teacher would erase the board when they noticed about 80% had complted it. So 20% of class missed...

Or you could watch 4 minutes if you have the attention span at the time.

This is a short clip about dyslexia, mainly angled at kids, as I know there are a few on here.😉
