Subject: Re: Depression and Dyslexia Author: Sonya (happy) [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 11:46:26 01/01/13 Tue In reply to: Joan 's message, "Depression and Dyslexia" on 19:34:47 03/03/10 Wed This is the first time I ever wrote on a forum I am 46 yrs old, due to the fact that my spelling is so bad, and it is painfull to over think every word you write,i can write the same word 3 times in a day 3 different ways!due to my dyslexia. My pronucation of words sometimes can be so scrambled, So yes I think that there are some days that you feel down on yourself, but with finding out that I have dyslexia only a few years ago, now I own what I have, and have a better understanding for myself and that helps.

[> Subject: Re: Depression and Dyslexia Author: Cynthia [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 12:02:35 01/08/13 Tue I find the mix of doing some things very well and failing at others - the failing being "normal" office matters - depressing. It interferes with moving up in the workplace I find, in office jobs at a mid level. So I have experienced being pigeon holed into what I do well, not so bad a problem. But not being able to move up. So I try to feel lucky that I am making a living and that my work has good qualities. But it is hard not to compare to others who can work with stride in the office place. just by working hard.
