I too was diagnosed with dyslexia at age 7 and had the help I needed in grade school. I did fair in high school A's and B's but didn't go on the college. I married young and started a family. I spent 14 years in a very emotionally abusive marriage, I was belittled by my husband and not feeling like I mattered. I have had a few jobs over the years, not any big paying jobs or anything like that, things worked out well though. I am remarried now and we have been married for 5 years and was working at a job that I enjoyed very much. I was just recently let go for performance reasons. I worked there for 2 years and yes I would make mistakes, reading paper work wrong or flipping numbers around, but to be let go for those things were unbelieveable to me. I hadn't thought about my dyslexia until this happened and it made me think. That is what is causing my problems. I can't make desicions, I start things and can't finish them, I can't concentrate on when I read. It really effects your whole life. I am 40 years old and I want to get better for myself and my family. What is bad is my family doesn't really understand dyslexia, I don't talk about it, they just get on me for the things I do wrong. If anyone knows how to help me please let me know. I have to find another job and I am scared of messing up.
