I feel very bad about my dyslexia. It has affected me so much of my life. I had a job that I liked and thought I did okay but It didnt work out so good due to my dyslexia. I decided to leave that job. Also no one really knew about this LD and there was one women that enjoyed mocking me on a daily basis. I would like to know what kind of job is good for someone with this condition. Also how can I prevent myself from being emotionaly abused by people that know nothing about this problem. I really dont want to tell people about my LD some are imature and will not be senstive to this condition.

Hi there.
Sorry to hear that you are going through a lot.
The only thing I can think of you could do, which I am sure will help you lots, it is to get some counseling. Get some books about self esteem as well, because they will help you.
There is nothing wrong with you. Maybe you just need to find a different type of job where you can excel and be appreciated. You are perfect as you are.
I am sure there are many things you are good at and it is just a matter of being in a type of job where you are good at.
Hope that helps.
