Yes I am a 55 yr old women. I suffered in grade school and beyond.
Self esteem ruined,
I entered into an abusive marriage, self worth was zero.
I escaped, grew, regained joy, married again,
now awaiting our daughters wedding.
I served over twenty years in nursing, became a writer .
living a good life.
Without anyone knowing about my dyspraxia....
What wonders I could have achieved if someone had intervened?
It was not until Sting's wife Trudy wrote about their son Jake in 1994 Bazaar
did I have a clue....17 yrs ago.
It was not until this week ,when I found the article again and read it , I
cried like a baby, I could barely read through my tears, I realized how profoundly it had affected my life.
Now I have new hope for my 6 yr old grandson.
Yes. Dyscalculia[p] or math disability is a specific learning disability or difficulty involving innate difficulty in learning or comprehending mathematics. It is akin to dyslexiaand can include confusion about math symbols. Dyscalculia can also occur as the result of some types of brain injury.

basically english is a foreign language.students don't take interest in learing english. main problem of students is pronunciation, tenses and grammer.
not really, but you are considered as having a learning difference. a lot of kids with ADHD however do have learning disabilities. still, even if you don't, you may still be eligible for special education.
As for individuals who have children with Fragile X, there is Mary Jane Clark, author, her son has Fragile X, she is a Fragile X carrier, and her son is the grandson of Mary Higgins Clark, author.
Jim Cantore has children who have Fragile X.
Dyslexia can go away. Well, it almost can go away. just "fak ei ttil' you make it".
That's a really good question! Dyslexia comes in all shapes and sizes, anything from getting your left and right confused, to a complete inability to read language in any form whatsoever. Dyslexia can be anywhere from a slight annoyance, to a complete debilitating disorder! I have dyslexia that is extraordinarily severe, and I am writing this post with voice recognition software because of it. My dyslexia is pretty much debilitating. Some people who say they have dyslexia merely get their left and right or red and green confused, and then there are people like me who can't even read signs telling them not to touch live wires. As you can see, dyslexia is a pretty wide spectrum.
Mental illness and learning disabilities have no general connection.
A mentally ill person is no more likely to have a learning disability than anyone else (although their condition might create circumstances that would make learning difficult for other reasons). Nor does a person with a learning disability necessarily have emotional or psychological problems. They simply have difficulty processing certain kinds of information into learned ideas or behavior.
NO, Autism is nothing like dyslexia, Dyslexia is a trouble with percieving reading, autism is a completely different mindset
... then apparently you also have trouble forming complete and coherent sentences.
That aside, "dyslexia" refers to a difficulty in reading, due in part to mistaking visually similar letters such as b and d. Since you didn't actually finish your question, it's hard to say what else you wanted to know about it.
Whilst this is true dyslexia just means that you have different abilities and difficulties than "the norm". For example spelling and reading may be some of the things that you find most difficult. But when other people cannot see things from a different angle and cannot find solutions to problems, YOU CAN. A lot of dyslexic people are a lot more creative. AND within the sector of the world deemed "exceptionally successful" 40% are dyslexic opposed to the 10% of the overall population of dyslexics. This shows that dyslexic people can do anything they want should they want too. :)
Dyslexia is a condition which makes it difficult to learn how to read. This is because the brain does not process certain symbols or letters which makes each word not appear correctly to the person.
People with Asperger's Syndrome can have a variety of comorbid conditions, including learning disabilities and similar disorders, such as
In addition, one aspect of Asperger's Syndrome is difficulty recognizing, reading, and interpreting nonverbal communication.
Technically everything in your body is connected, but not directly. Your optic nerve is connected to the sensory part of your brain/frontal lobe, and your neck is muscle/blood vessels/spine/nerves. The nerves are also connected to your brain, but not directly to your optic nerve.
Yes. if ur in the dark, hold a mirror and then turn a lite on. ur pupil then contracts
The syndrome occurs in approximately 1 in 3600 males and 1 in 4000 to 6000 females
Dyslexia isn't the kind of thing you 'get,' it's something that you have. Like Asperger's, autism, ADD, or brown hair.
It can be diagnosed and treated at any age, but it often goes undiagnosed and untreated.
No. However, individuals with ADHD are more likely to have dyslexia.
males have only one copy of the X chromosome. Males who inherit the full mutation are expected to have mental impairment. A female's normal X chromosome may compensate for her chromosome with the fragile X gene mutation
