Looking for advice and help on dyslexia?

I was found to be dyslexic at 19 (I am now 26) and had a assessment with an educational psychologist. My reading and writing skills are ok concerning everyday english language. But my spelling and understanding of more complex language (for example in undergraduate texts) is not always so good. I have have poor concentration, poor short term memory and I am easily distracted by little things that make my mind wander. Dispite having a degree (in graphic design 2.1) I have not yet established a proper career path and I feel this is a result partly to my dyslexia as I am a slow learner when it comes to pretty much everything, but then I can sometimes excel when it clicks. Does anyone have any suggestions on books, forums or dicussion groups that could help me? I am also keen to know if there are many people out there who like me do not have severe problems with reading and writeing but are dyslexic and suffer from poor concentration, bad organisational and time management skills etc?Looking for advice and help on dyslexia?

my baby father was dyslexic but he weren't diagnosed till way later, he can read now but cant spell to save his life, they say its not inherited but 2 of my children have it and not being big headed i'm quite clever, so i really think they have a lot more study to do on this, however you have only one spelling mistake on your question so well done. You seem to be getting on ok keep it up.

I do not believe in Dyslexia.. It is just a nice way of saying dumb. Do people who are too clever get a name? It is to do with how well you learn and if you can remeber things after you are taught it. Young kids who are using the term 'Dyslexic' as an excuse to get out of homework and activities in lessons. A girl at my school got many days off because she said she had to go and get help for her 'Dyslexia' from some doctor. She then failed all her mock exams but shrugged her shoulders and said 'Oh well, it's because im Dyslexic'.. What if she said stupid?
For someone with dyslexia I think you are very very very very lucky judging by what you have typed here...
I am not sure what type of dyslexia you have. I do know that in recent years special glasses were developed for people with visual dyslexics and it eliminates, largely or completely, any problems they may have. Here is one link about the glasses: http://www.dyslexiaglasses.com/page/page鈥?/a> .





You can also contact a dyslexic person who wrote a book on his condition. His name is Girard Sagmiller. His e-mail address is girardsag@yahoo.com (I found this address on the worldwide web at www.dyslexiamylife.org).
