_Kai_ Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Okay so I put this topic in the Chat area cuz I didn't know what other category to put it in, I've been researching & I'm pretty sure I'm able to self diagnose but will ask a professional sometime, but I think I may be dyslexic? It makes sense because of the signs/symptoms, like I have alot of them just not sure if I myself have it or not. I saw that it can be genetic & my dad has dyslexia as well. Is there anyone that has dyslexia themself, that could inform me how I would self diagnose it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will also be able to give you advice on how to support yourself as well. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I was gonna try to see if I could speak to a professional just to be like sure, would a regular doctor be able to tell me if I do? Or would it have to be someone whos specializes in dyslexia?

Hey, I would talk to a member of staff at school first as schools often organise assessments for dyslexia, so maybe try that and see how it goes? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
