I think it would be very helpful if there was a web site for dyslexic people to be able to post topics that are pertinant to our needs regarding comunicating w/ other dyslexic people.
I'm 40 and have no friends, not that I'm a bad person, just that I don't socialize very well.
I recentaly found a web site called EMO cornor, now I don't relate to their music, dress, or sense of darkness.
But I do relate to their feeling diferent.
problemb there is it's a bunch of children who would rather beat up on each other, they as would be expected are very leary of adults. However it has been of some help as I found that I realy want to be able to comunicate with anyone. But it has goten old real fast. if anyone has some good ideas for a website or how to start one please let me know I include my Email adress but please only reply if serrious about trying to mabey start something to help others.
I find I feel better about myself when I'm helping others !
the adress is timc333@gmail.com

Yahoo! (I hope that's not a breach of copyright. It's a very old exclamation.) Thank you for answering, Tim. I am in absolute agreement with your view that the first person to benefit from the act of helping others is the 'giver'. (I could not think of a better word for a person who extends their hand in good faith, friendship and without direct self benefit in mind.) I will e-mail you as well, but I think it is good for others like me to see the flow that may be commencing, a flow that could be the growth of a community of people with similar issues and the aim of helping each other.
