Subject: Embarrassed Author: Maurice [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 01:36:05 03/03/11 Thu How are you all I was diagnoised with Dyslexia 2 years ago at the age of 37. I could always read, just slowly and never aloud, my main problem is numbers (I'm stil brutal with them). Any how I was initally relieved as it ment I there was actually a reason for me being the way I was as opposed to me just being stupid. However as time has gone on I feel it has again become a issue for me, I have no short term memory, and when I take notes, I'm unable to read them back or remember what they are for. My desk space in work is a mess and things I used to feel comfortable doing I now feel convinced I going to mess up. I also feel as if work look on me as a bit special now that I have dyslexia. I feel rightly or wrongly that it has become an issue with promotion, and at the end of the day I'm very embarrassed by the whole thing. I just want to be able to work like everyone else, not be constantly worried about messing up and not feel embarrassed every day. I come in in the morming and immediately look at my work for the what I won't mess up point of wiew. I just venting here really as if I stood up in the office and did this I'd be committed. Anyhow Cheers Maurice [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
