--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dyslexia is very common, affecting 20 percent of the population.
Dyslexia represents 80- 90 percent of all those with learning disabilities.
Reading is complex.
It requires our brains to connect letters to sounds, put those sounds in the right order, and pull the words together into sentences and paragraphs we can read and understand.
People with dyslexia have trouble matching the letters they see on the page with the sounds those letters and combinations of letters make.
Children and adults with dyslexia struggle to read fluently, spell words correctly and learn a second language, among other challenges.
But these difficulties have no connection to their overall intelligence.
While people with dyslexia are slow readers, they often very fast and creative thinkers!
Do you think you have dyslexia?
1. Do you confuse visually similar words such as cat and cot?
2. Do you lose your place or miss out lines when reading?
3. Do you have trouble telling left from right?
4. Do you get confused when given several instructions at once?
5. Do you find it difficult to find the right word to say?
6. Do you find it difficult to read out loud?
Dyslexia can’t be “cured” - it is a lifelong condition
HOWEVER with the right support dyslexic individuals can become highly successful students and adults.

What did you score on this test? Have you ever been diagnosed with dyslexia?
Authentic Mental Health I’ve been told I may be dyslexic and I’m waiting to have a test done. I scored 4 in the test I was close to 5 but I answered no one of the questions because I wasn’t entirely sure
I score a 5/6, I know my lefts and rights
I’ve never been diagnosed with dyslexia
I have been diagnosed irlen I have to wear dark glasses they're black and blue the cost nearly 300 quid all together but my reading is excellent now the first time in 48 years I've gone back to college
I have dyslexia 🙂
All this time everybody thought I was dumb turns out I had dyslexia
Have you been diagnosed?
Yeah same I feel like dyslexia is quite common now but I’m just reading these comments but o don’t think it is common but ya I’m dyslecic x
Mithical Studio that is same as me
Me too
People think I can control it. It's so annoying when people say that. You cannot control it.
I always wondered why they called it dyslexia. This is almost impossible to write down for people with dyslexia xD
I know I was thinking the same! We have the same brains!!!
Lexia, is Latin for read and dys means not able (ish)
@@lynnisme3828 wow, I never knew this! Thanks!
Exactly.
yes then when you actuly spell it right people question if you actuly have it.
People with ADHD lost him at 5 seconds
Edit: wow never thought that many ppl would relate/reply/like 😂😂
The amount of times I had to rewind cause I zoned out
@@EmmaGonzales lol same
i turned it up 2x
Hahahah dude was talking so slow for real
HAHAHA
I love it how I got here by looking up and I quote “tubbo theropey”
LITERALLY SAME AHAHHA
hahahahha I found out tubbo was dyslexic
U read my mind
@@adriancsb hahahhaha same lol
SAME
I always hated reading because I lost my ‘line’ and mess up the story or end up being confused. I thought I’m the only person struggling with this lol
Nah i think I have it to sometimes I forget where I leave my stuff
That's why I gave up reading and say to people I will wait till the film comes out.
yes!
same XD
Same but i do not know if i have dyslexia
Me: answers yes to every question
Me:in honors reading
Same :')
Bro I’m in honors to and I suck at reading
Omg same I’m really confused :(
@@Hidden_Remi bro same lol
Honestly who cares schools are useless until highschool (if you even will go to college)
I scored 6. Everyone thought I was dumb, I was bottom of my class in school and got punished for not being able to read or memorise my multiplication table 😢. Well today I work as a mechanical design engineer doing very complex designs and equations, non of my teachers can believe how far I’ve come 😂. It’s a gift not a disability, don’t look down on yourself for being dyslexic your mind is capable or so so much guys.
Same here, got all 6. Retired now, with a career in electrical engineer. Was even in the special ed class too! 😎 other issue is Im hearing impaired. Thinking this was an issue on not spelling great.
I’m dyslexic and I read the same line twice while reading this lol
Yes...makes sense. I was just talking about people with dyslexia seeing in the mind 5 D. Makes sense for your career.
The way this guy talks and breaks up his words makes it so easy to understand what he’s saying. Idk what it is but he just breaks it up so nicely for my dyslexic Brian
Aww. I hope Brian is doing okay.
@@nat6303 my brain is doing great 👍
@@nat6303 lol. That took me a second to notice the joke.
Is dyslexia diagnosis done for late teen or adult too ?!
@@lunaray5073 idk search it up on google
Chances are u could get a diagnosis
Do you know how hard it was to find this video?!
It’s basically impossible for me to spell dyslexia without just using auto correct 😅
I’m so sorry! How are you?
Hhh same here it tooks me a year to read that word but i steal can't write it
Raria Royal so true
😂😂 true
"test for dislexea" thanks auto correct lol
6/6 I think I have to go to the doctor

@@AuthenticMentalHealth Yeah you forgot to mention that it costs $250 a month to speak to someone there.
@@frances7027 Lol I realised when I was 30
It was picked up when I was at primary school. Back then there wasn't the help that there is today. How it affects me is im bad at maths. My spelling is poor. I used to get told use a dictionary but I say I can't cause you need to know how to spell to use one. I here there's a dictionary for dyslexia. I sometimes write a p when it should be a d. I can't read books I just can't take in what I read. Learning is very hard I need to be shown a job loads of times before I get how to do it. Then I will master it like I've done it for years. I'm not good with paperwork but excellent at praticical things. When I write I can write a head of what I need to put. Talking about numbers I can say 6400 but I should have said 4600. From next week I'm moving from my floor job to the office so there will be typing and accounts to do. I'm half worried about it. That test you just did I could relate to all of it. Not so much about Q1. A struggled through school and college but I did it. Yes it was hard and I had a lot of hard work to study. But I got there.
@@frances7027 how do you spell better than me?? I'm sure you must be fast at reading then. Idk
As a dyslexic let me reassure all those who (like me) answered yes to every question, and even questioned myself on 2 of them (1 and 6). Having dyslexia doesn't make your life terrible. It may be hard to learn memory intensive studies. But being dyslexic ironically makes you more likely to adapt to our society on your own terms. You are a far more out-of- the-box thinker then any avrige individual, to the point where your opinions are rival only to that of those who are classified as "geniuses". Understand that your unwillingness to understand basic schooling or societies normal pathological studies, isn't becuase you are slow, or disabled. It is becuase your mind is able to comprehend our society in a way that it is incapable of understanding itself. It takes you longer to learn becuase your mind wants to think there are better ways of understanding that which is presented to it. There should be no denying that there is, but you simply need to come to the understanding that you (like many great minds) are a minority. To survive in this world you must come to the understanding of the ideas that those who are trained to believe teach you. You yourself do not need to believe them, but you must accept the challenge of regurgitating them as the majority do. Becuase if you are not able to live in there world, they will prosecute you, they will torment you, they will give you no choice, and if you still refuse they will end your life. Threw imprisonment, threw execution, and in the nicest, most polite way they can act upon it. Becuase it is what THEY believe is the right thing. Becuase it is what THEY think is correct. You do not make the rules in this world. You live by there rules. They do not know your pain, will never know your pain, and no matter how much you try to explain it they are not programmed to understand.
You are not stupid, you are not slow, you are not disabled. You were born to understand the truth. So don't let anything make you give up on living your life. You are a stranger in a strange land. Do as the locals do. Live another day. It will be hard, but it's bearable. There are many who cannot live the kind of life you live, they go insane. Do not be like them. Being the mental minority should allow you to see that we can live the same life. We can be happy among the crowd. If we have to be among the sheep, let us at least be the sheep who enjoy our lives. Not the ones who fear it. Study hard, it will pay off. Learn things your own way, make the knowledge yours. Becuase there is truth to it. Regardless of what will be parroted.
Amazing
Having auditory dyslexia myself, I didn't understand most of what you said, but it's great hearing this!! Recently, I've been blaming my dyslexia for everything. Understanding things isn't my strong suit, but I did understand some at what you're saying and it makes me want to cry in happiness because I always felt like I've been behind in life. ☺
You inspired me
Read this in a Morgan Freeman voice for the best feeling you've ever had
Thank you
I answered 5 out of 6, since then I've always curious about my speaking condition, I cannot fucos on everything and being bullied. but I'm trying to make ways like practice proper breathing while reading.
Do you have dyslexia?
I thought I was just stupid but then I looked up am I dyslexic for fun and I got 5 yesses and 1 no and I’m convinced I have dyslexia oof
You are not stupid!
Authentic Mental Health first time I’ve ever been told that * cries of joy *
Yo same
c h e c k e r z ur also VERY MUCH THE OPPOSITE OF STUPID (unless ur IQ is 1 and ur scientific name is veggie)
dyslexia is just a different way of thinking - we think outside the box! don’t let the education system we have put you in their box! 💡
Reason I hate my dyslexia:
In theater we have to read out loud the script and most of the times the way we read it effects what role we will get. Well my slow reading time isn't painting me in the best light, no is it? xD I mess up words all the time and it's really frustrating. Like I know what the page says, I can read it just fine in my head, but once you make me read it out loud... nah. Sigh to the max level
I'm sorry to hear that, does your school know you have dyslexia and are they helping you with it?
Holy crap the same thing happens to me! #TottalyRealatable
(This whole sentence was auto corrected lol)
I have problems at school trying to learn but I’m good at maths I got 74% on a test but a month later I had a words test and I got 0% and the teacher said why didn’t you do any of the test so I said ‘’I can’t read’’ he laughed
My mum smoked a lot and drunk wine but not a much as smoking
Matthew Colyer I’m so sorry to hear that. My parents are divorced and I’m not fully trusting my step dad right now cause I’m always paranoid with anxiety and quite depressed.
(I’ve been formally diagnosed with Dyslexia and ADHD for context) I used to think I was good at reading in my head (I mean I was blowing through chapter books (350+ pages) in a day or so), but slow and mistake ridden when reading outloud. Until I realised while reading a chapter that had no dialogue and was incredibly “boring” in my opinion that I’m not quick at reading in my head. I skim read… yeah… let’s just say I missed a lot of plot threads… add in my short attention span (special thanks to my ADHD) and umm… fun times… *im typing this while constantly looking back and forth and my insane collection of books as I realise I’ve probably missed so much but am just genuinely not bothered to read about over 100+ books (warrior cats by Erin Hunter if curious)…*
Okay im replying to everyone saying they both have ADHD and dyslexia lol
PLS LETS BE FRIENDS!!! I don’t know anyone who was diagnosed with both of them and I would love to talk to someone who can relate!!!
I’m diagnosed dyslexic and highly likely inattentive ADHD and I just had to chuckle at the paragraphs and punctuation because that’s the most dyslexic ADHD thing ever and I do it too. I ramble so much hahahah
Skim reader too, too boring and takes so much energy to read it all. Screw that!
Why does he sound like he’s speaking to 6 year olds
Also atleast half the stuff was wrong
Btw I’m dyslexic
I know it makes it harder for me to understand I'm also dyslexic
I was looking for this comment as well!
Looks he is a little dyslexic looking how he is reading the script
so any one with serious struggles cant have easier time understanding
yeah it's like he's reading a script but it's not a big deal to me
Him: Do you-
Me: *yes*
I answered yes to all these questions I'm 50 years old now what All those years of frustration feeling stupid .
I would highly recommend you speak to someone here who can help you - betterhelp.com/authenticmentalhealth
I know exactly how you feel, I'm 60 and have struggled over the years thinking I was just "not very clever" I now know how to manage my condition and have done well in life because knowing my weaknesses and strengths I've avoided what I'm not good at and concentrated on what I excel in.
Same here, never been tested. But 12 years ago I took all these online test and it all made sense. I broke down in tears because I felt so stupid my whole life.
I've come to the conclusion that for years I've had dyslexia and ADHD. It's been a constant thought in my head along with other mental possibilities that could back up this theory
Especially after entering yr10 (it got really bad).
The only problem is that I've never been diagnosed for it, and if I ask someone they're just gonna think I'm over reacting or won't consider it.
Apparently when I was younger I was in some form of a 'help class' and honestly don't know why I wasn't tested for anything from then to now??
*Edit a year, late 2022:*
I think the dyslexia theory has decreased a little but the ADHD is still a big factor (+depression and other issues) and now I keep thinking about minor autism or low empathy.
I still want to get tested but at this point, and probably the future, it’ll never end up happening. Feels like it’s been too late for a long time.
PLS LETS BE FRIENDS I have ADHD and dyslexia (and other learning disabilities) too and I don’t know anyone who is in the same situation as meee
You will do fine . Look for help toncope with anxiety and keep going on . When you are in a workplace they value you for doing your thing and not be problematic or making too much drama for menial things , to have perfect spelling or passing a test is not what life is about . You will be fine .
It's never to late to get a diagnosis. At least if you get tested, you are more able to deal with life. You often come to terms with all the negativity and you learn to accept its not your fault etc. I'm 65 yrs old. 6 yrs ago I finally got tested for ADHD ! It was brilliant for me ! I failed at almost everything at school, I was in classes for kids that were slow learners. I wasn't supported by my family etc. I struggled such alot. Its done my confidence so much good. I now know I'm slow, but I'm certainly not stupid. Please find a way to get tested, there are ADHD support groups a round the Country and that's where I began my journey. I hope this will help you in some way, belive in yourself, be strong and do something about it !
Go talk to a professional! Self-diagnosing will only make you more confused, I can say that from experience. Talking to someone who has studied this kind of thing can really help, and as a couple others have said in the replies it's never too late to be diagnosed. Also, nobody who knows what they're talking about will assume you're overreacting. People who do that don't care whether those things are happening or not, they are the kind of people to disregard mental disorders even when they are diagnosed. (I know this from experience as well, not fun). You should just ignore them, unless they are a big problem.
It’s never too late to get diagnosed! I got diagnosed with adhd last year at 16 and holy fuck did it make a difference getting on medication but just understanding myself way better on its own. There’s so many things I struggle with that I am now able to help bc I got diagnosed and was given tools that can help! Best decision I’ve ever made. I felt the same way thinking people would think I was overreacting. People did treat it that way initially but I kept persisting and giving them valid reasons and eventually my mom who was one of the doubters got me diagnosed bc of the recommendation of a counselor and now she’s so happy seeing me thrive. It’s never too late. Best choice I ever made 🫶 I hope you do the same!
I am a dyslexic the way you talk and how you used your hands it held my attention the entire time. You are a very good speaker!!!
I’ve answered 4 out of 6. When I was in school I told my mother that it was something wrong with me and she blew it off as if I was lying. As I get older it’s getting harder and harder. I want to go back to school to get my high school diploma or GED but I’m scared that I will fail.😔
You are NOT alone❤️ I would highly recommend you speak to someone here who can help you - betterhelp.com/authenticmentalhealth
I support you, girl! ;)
Girl go back to school!! You can do it!!
You got this 🙏🏽❤️
AHAHAHA this is the same story from the movie Night school.
4 out of the 5 questions, yes. too late, i already graduated college with a computer science degree. good thing i learned the stuff on my own ahead of time.
Well done that's amazing my friend, how are you?
It was 6 questions
even I have a Computer Science degree and i got 6/6 yes, I am kinda worried as it is getting harder for me to spell, read and speak correctly day by day.
@@mansibansal3828 i tough im the only one. OMG!
@@jordanoytas5865 hey I got tested, and they said I don't have dyslexia, but it is happening because of excessive stress which tampers our concentration power.
It's so crazy, I have had learning difficulties all my life, but the learning psychologist I saw as a child said it had something to do with being left-eye dominant and I have since met so many people that are left-eye dominant and have none of the same difficulties. Now the more I learn about dyslexia the more I realize I've been dyslexic this whole time. But because I told him I didn't mix up b and d, I was never diagnosed. I could have gotten the help I needed and done so much better.
Don't kick yourself. My opinion, all they (non-dyslexics) could do at the best (and that isn't very good) is diagnosed the "problem." You would have been branded and classified as "needling" help and be placed into a resource or special day class and given very poor educational instruction (if you are lucky direct instruction by knowledgeable and caring teacher) and never have the opportunity to finish you requirements to graduate from high school and given the opportunity to attend a local college. No, my advice: you were better off not being "discovered."
can i just mention how great you are for speaking slow, understandable and using your hands? i feel you really wanna help and make a clear point. thank you
I’ve never been diagnosed with dyslexia, but I’m a cashier. Sometimes when reading people their change, it could say $7.24. I see the number, get the correct change, and say “Your change is $4 and 27 cents. I mean...$7 and..” and by that time I’m so embarrassed I just stop talking. I’ve also noticed that sometimes when texting I type words backwards. I have excellent grammar, and rarely stumble over spelling or sentence structure. I just see one thing and in my brain it jumbles itself. I’m here trying to find clarity.
That's okay! I don't want to diagnose you or to self diagnose yourself but it does sound a lot like dyslexia, can you go to a doctor or somewhere to find out for certain? You might be able to get help here - betterhelp.com/authenticmentalhealth
It breaks my heart I am 44 years old and finally understand what was wrong with me I have self diagnosed myself with dyslexia I have a high school diploma that means absolutely nothing to me I have never read a book in my life making it through life has been difficult but not impossible I own and operate my own painting successful business
I would highly recommend you speak to someone here who can help you - betterhelp.com/authenticmentalhealth
I found an application on my phone called Moon Reader mixed with the google text to speach service allowed me to "read" hundreds of books. Its a little better than Audible in my opinion because it used simple text files or pdfs which are mostly free and have small file sizes.
Grumpy Whiskers thank you for your help
I used to be a high-scoring students when I was younger. Life happened which worsen my mental health. I got Covid and other physical illnesses that also may or may not contribute to my worsening memory and comprehension issues. Now as an adult, I often get scolded for making mistakes that involves memory (such as forgetting or misheard instructions). People thinks I'm not 'focused enough', 'not serious enough to do my job', or 'I use my phone too often' (which I'm not, compared to my coworkers). To be honest it's frustrating when you've tried your best, but you still expect to forget about something to the point that people starts to doubt your ability to do even the simplest tasks
5 yes.
I used to have difficulty with reading out loud and I still find it difficult.
Rhyming words were of great help, I could just guess what's coming but when it came to reading stories out loud, I still get stuck. While reading in mind, I lose the line I was on.
I said yes to all the queschons but i already diognosed with dislexia
Are you getting help for your dyslexia?
same
what kind of help? its just your brain working differently, if your still in school system then i guess help is nice thing but when your adult like me you just live with it
courtney-Leigh leadbitter lol same
May I ask u how u were diagnosed with dyslexia.amd.what age?
My daughter turned 3 and she was diagnosed with it and I really wonder what to do,cause with the dyslexia they said she has ADHD as well. I am scared honestly
I was diagnosed with dyslexia at the age of 14 (I’m still 14). I went threw elementary school not being able to read or write (I’m using the microphone on my phone to be able to spell this). It has been really hard to learn how to live with being diagnosed. I have started high school now so it’s going to be a challenge.
The person that diagnosed me with dyslectia said that me reading words is like driving on the other side on the road for the first time.
I personally think that is the best explenation
5/6. Always had trouble in learning. I used to wonder why. I used to compare myself with my brother n sister and asked y me?! 😢 My parents knew I had issues but none of them told me that I had dyslexia. She always said im fine. But no matter how much I work I couldn't hardly see any progress. At least now I know. Thankful for that. ☺
Are you at school or college? Talk to a teacher and they will be able to diagnose you properly!
Mariyam Lifsha dame issue with me.
Mariyam Lifsha oh god me too I had that and also so much forgetting everything this is so much helpful thank you
My mom would just yell at me and tell me I'm fine. Yet I can't even play twister without thinking about which hand I write with and this is how all my essays looked like in 5th grade for example "I think I hav a problem withe my famly becuse th e ..." That's what it looked like
Exactly what happened to me
I'm already diagnosed with dyslexia and this is a good test to figure out if you have of dyslexia. I answer yes to everything. Being diagnosed and getting accommodations in college does really help. Best video about dyslexia!👍🏽
Thank you my friend! How are you?
Hi Dan can I get to ask you few questions because I'm working on dyslexia
I had of a speech therapy from a clinician that I would like to know of it from going a dyslexia. Thank you so much, Sir.
Thank you for this Video. I was diagnosed with severe ADHD, and didnt realize that Dyslexia could be associated. I scored 6 of 6 on this test. I have also scored high on Emotional Detachment tests as well. I dont self-diagnose myself, however your videos describing symptoms really helps me have a better understanding, and have provided me with more pieces of this mental puzzle. (And yes....I had to proof read this comment 5 times for typo's before posting...LOL)
i think i haev deslexia
Have you ever been diagnosed or spoken to anyone before about it?
Authentic Mental Health no
love that you misspelt words... You have dyslexia, but you also don't have spell check? Lol
CrunchyCookieMSP have u been diagnosed
As someone professionally diagnosed with multiple learning disabilities it's wrong to claim that you have it off a UA-cam video I went through months of testing and countless struggles throughout you should make videos help support the community instead of a video like this you should have been a video explaining what it is not making up a test that's not accurate now I don't mean to offend you but people claiming they have it and they don't, really undermines people that do
I just scored 4 out of 6, and I graduated college... it was hard, and I struggled. I finished though, and am so proud! I have always thought I might have dyslexia, and now I am almost certain I do.
I am very proud of you my friend!
I got diagnosed with dyslexia this summer and because of that I know why I couldn’t read until I was 7 years old
Thank you for this lightening video
I laughed when I heard all of these because it’s so true, all of it. My family also has a hard time with numbers, we have read over numbers 4-5 times so we know we got it right. I showed this to my husband and he smiled at it because he knows where I struggle.
I actually have dyslexia and I'm glad someone mentioned that dyslexia doesn't just go away. I got help with it so I don't struggle as much, but it doesn't mean I know everything and won't struggle more. Thank you for bringing that up ❤️
You have nothing to thank! Dyslexia is a life long struggle but with help it can be helped! How are you?
Authentic Mental Health I'm doing great! Thanks for asking. I got help when I was in like middle school with a tutor. Eventually I improved and they let me go. I still stumble here and there but it's definitely a lot better. I do get picked on by others but it's not often since many don't know I have it.
How did you get help?
@comfortdavid3213 I had a teacher in elementary school who also had dyslexia. She knew of a tutor place that helps people with dyslexia and she got me in there. Nothing with my school really did anything, she did it on her own
I scored 5. I have was told that I might be dyslexic when I was getting a mental evaluation over 10 years ago. I will talk to my primary care doctor. I am 49 years and many people assume I am lazy or not trying hard enough. That couldn't be further from the truth.
I have been bignosed with Dyslexia and it’s really bad that sometimes I get Destructive because I get Frustrated so I start talking and getting hyper
I was waiting for this test to tell me I'm not dyslexic so i could laugh....cause I was diagnosed with dyslexia when i was 8... but I ended up answering yes too all of that... so I guess this test is genuine 😂.... ughhhhh
All of our tests are genuine as you have found out mate! How are you?
I did the exact same thing! 😂
I know right
On my birthday, like two days ago, a teacher (i dont know who) pulled me out of class (not literally) and talked to me. He told me I was one of the best students ln the school. He started talking about how I'm getting less work done than the rest of the students. He asked me questions about it and i answered honestly. He said i might have a moderate level of dyslexia. im not fully diagnosed yet tho
Edit: i got 6/6
You are NOT alone❤️ I would highly recommend you speak to someone here who can help you - betterhelp.com/authenticmentalhealth
Same I think I have moderate Dyslexia and I also got 6/6 on the test but my mom does not believe I have it..
Scored 4. I am dyslexic having had a test at university. Dyslexia is a gift, I see thing differently and sometimes it makes for funny quirks (funny memories from the 6 questions). I'm now a teacher at a prestigious international school. It should be your strength.
I answered yes to all, and honestly I have been noticing for a long time but I'm just ignoring it. I've learned how to adapt, where I would take time to analyse what I write, type, or say. Because back then when I would speak or write, I would sound like I just had a stroke.
Up till now, I'm still having difficulty telling apart left or right, reading outloud or reading by myself. The letters just go everywhere, when I'm typing however, It makes analysing the words easy for me since I learned how to adapt fast.
I hate that I have to hide this because everyone around me, mocks me for my Dyslexia. I hate that my family is aware but chooses to ignore it because they don't want to be associated with someone who has dyslexia.
Thank you for this, you helped me finally accept what I have~
I have dyslexia... What should I do?
(I have an auto corrector)
I would highly recommend you speak to someone here who can help you - betterhelp.com/authenticmentalhealth
I have multiple diagnoses including dyslexia there's not much you can do unless you been diagnosed Young speaking with a professional and getting diagnosed by professional can help you better understand
It's funny, when I'm speaking with someone especially when its concerning professional things I have to look away and affix my eyes to something still so I can think fluidly

I would like to ask a question , Who absolutely cannot read a newspaper because of the way it does not finish a story , but makes you then "go find "the completion of said story on an impossible to find it again page ! This drives me bonkers, I never read a newspaper EVER
Well, long story short, I have a form of mild dyslexia. I answered 5 of 6 yes. As a child I was considered a gifted kid and was in the GATE program for a few years. I always struggled with spelling and would constantly swap letters, words, or phrases when reading, whether in my head or out loud. Always thought I had dyslexia but my mother just said I was a hypochondriac. It wasn't until my second year in college that I actually was diagnosed/helped with it by the counseler and given the accommodations. It helped me so much, even just having some extra time to take an exam helps me to relax and focus more on the actual exam and I'm able to take the time I needed to read and process the questions before answering. I would make silly mistakes like reading the questions without the "landmines" of NOT or ALWAYS. I didn't realize it until now that being confused when given a lot of information or instructions at once was a dyslexia thing. In my labs in college, my professor would say the instructions once and then expect us to just go and get things done. My classmates would immediately start working and I'd just stand there in a daze trying to process what was happening, though I suppose having others all rushing around you doesn't help with me trying to process what just happened.
Typical professors.
I actually came here because I didn’t know what dyslexia is but now i know and luckily I’m fine. For the people who have dyslexia don’t give up I know you can beat it one day
Thank you for sharing with us, how are you?
I've been aware that I struggle to read since I was a child. My mom told me that I am dyslexic and was aware ever since I was little.
I answered yes to all of the questions. I never let it stop me, my mom helped me read even when I hated it. I was taken out of class to go to reading help classes and at one point was basically called hopeless. I learned to cope on my own and I had English teachers who seemed to hate me. I am now passing my AP and honors classes and am able to write essays quickly. Even though I forget words like "offer" or other simple words all the time xD
Your suffering is an inspiration to many...
No matter how much life drags you down...rise like a phoenix
your words are used in class and alot of writing
Can I speak with you please
I remember being about 4, a teacher came to my house and she told me the letter 'b' and 'd' were different.
Then my parents gave me these kid's books "Sam the Lion". I wouldn't pronounce the words correctly.
I am an 'A' student, but I have to erase 2 hours of math homework because I realized I switched the (y,x) as the formula. I work really really hard to preform/ over preform to meet expectations.
I keep asking my mom why I haven't been diagnosed. And she knows I have it because I was homeschooled for 3-5 years. My Grandmother is severely dislexic. Still, no diagnosis.
It'll flare up at times too, which worries me if I was ever tested. Like, what if that day it was less or not even apparent?
I don't think people know how hard it is to achieve the level of academics. There is so little praise. It can be hurtful.
Once in public school, I was learning to type with all fingers instead of pecking. The teacher had had my sister before and she can type 103 Words Per Minute. So the teacher assumed I should have that level of 'ability'. When I mad 10 Words Per Minute (the highest at the time) she lectured the class on how important dedication to a subject was, but it felt like she was talking to me, though I had practiced at home instead of drawing-- which is my favorite thing to do in the world.
Since then, I have made the grade no questions asked. It just hurts when I try to get a concept and I skip steps like read tbs instead of tsp.
Sorry for the rant. I guess I just hope I'm not alone.
My score was 5 , i just got the right and left right.
I’ve always been an active child but very slow in cognitive process. But i consider myself a creative person. Now at 25, I realize i have dyslexia.
When you answered 5 out of 6 questions and suddenly you’re like OMG 😱
I have have been diagnosed with dyslexia and my answers Yes Yea Yes Yes Yes Yes this year was very accurate well done
I can imagine something cool in my brain but reading is bad and math is bad too
After a lifetime of experience. Most professionals, teachers and the general public think it is a mental illness. This keeps young people from seeking help.
Illiterate, slow are examples that push people away. I have talked with teachers who believe it is a low level mental illness. Sadly.
Public awareness is the best help. Thanks
Hey again I’m glad this video has come up cause me and my mum have been questioning if I have dyslexia because I’m having difficulty in high school and that’s one reason of my anxiety depression etc cause can’t cope but oh well and love the new hair 😂💕💕
Fae X I would highly recommend you talk to someone at your school about it like your teachers!
Authentic Mental Health I would but I can’t too anxious about talking to people in school especially teachers x
3/3 But I know I already have dyslexia.
Are you seeking help for your dyslexia or getting help for it?
I am went to a special school for the. Dyslexia
everytime I wanna say yes I doubt my self and think that I'm just over exagarating
I wanted to see how accurate this is. As a person with Dyslexia, I can understand what they are saying. It doesn't just affect the way I read or write its very mental. And I have a lot of difficulties understanding things. This causes me to have 3 hour-long conversations about basic things.
I already know I have dyslexia. I just wanted to watch this out of pure curiosity.
What did you score?
same i was diagnose it when i was in high school like 10 years ago i always had problems and low grades in my Primary education but back then you where just called stupid by teachers funny fact is that the diagnose i got was only for 2 years as if after 2 years it would suddenly dissipater but i was out of school system sooner so i never had a need to repeat the diagnose
and my score here was 100% the highest score i ever got in entire my life time :D
I was diagnosed with ADHD in 4th grade. I was always in the lowest reading group in 1st-3rd grade, I don’t even try to process left and rights anymore, and I HATED PE and other sports because I would always be hit by balls instead of catching them (yeah, I said balls. Congratulations your hilarious). School got so much easier after I started taking ADHD meds and I thought this was all just symptoms of that. I love reading but it takes a lot of focus (I can read for hours with out a break). I hate writing essays. So much so, that I avoid college application essays. Any way, now I feel like I’m not actually an idiot😂
Thank you for being slow when your talking! It’s hard for me to process things when I hear them, so I’m videos I have to keep repeating what they say over and over to hear it. I got 5 out of the 6, I don’t usually mix up cat and cot so I didn’t add that. But all the other ones I do
I was diagnosed at 46 due to my boss picking up on my report writing, I had a degree (open) I got really emotional when I found I was dyslexic it threw up a lot of what I had been told at school.
I was also told I had designed my own strategy’s to cope. I now read through a blue acetate sheet it helps. I am now 65 dyslexia didn’t exist back in the day. I have never considered myself disabled in any way. 😊
I answered all 6 with a yes, yay :( Thats why I suck at algebra
I was diagnosed with dislexia at the start of middle school I was top class English due to cheating on my spelling test and my reading then in middle school I couldn’t I read a page for like 5 minutes got average 2/10 in spellings at first I was getting bullied by my teacher for apparently beeing that “I’ve never seen a student more uncappaple then you if you keep this up your be in class 4-6” then 3 months later I was called in to this room near form then with this speacil student teacher I did a dislexia test and it came back from the conical saying I showed positive signs of it only 1 month after I started getting help like extra time on yoy exams then a speacil book also forgot to say I got 4/6
thank you for speaking slowly, it helped me understand a bit better :)
I've scored 6/6 ..I have been suffering with school all my life but just thought I was dumb and just worked extra extra hard to a breaking point. I knew I was different until college when a teacher suggested I might be but I never got around to do the test . I've recently noticed that I cannot spell words I used to spell correctly. Watching this just caused my depression and anxiety hit the roof . With uni starting soon I dont even know where to start
I’m not dyslexic, and I can read really really well but for some reason now matter how much I read I can’t spell TwT all the people who have the same spelling level as me are dyslexic
i scored 5 out of 6. Since 1998,I suffered a threatening head injury, miraculously survived and since then have ben diagnosis with alexcia which is the root of dyslexia. (Dyslexia times 10) I absolutely LOVE anime but find it difficult to watch some of the greatest ones because they provide only subtitles. It also makes it difficult to talk to people online about anime because most of them practically jump down my throat for watching dubbed anime and claim that I "...am not a true anime fan if I do not watch anime with subtitles..." because of that and other things,I truely wish to become a better and faster reader.
I'm very sorry to hear that, you can talk to someone here who can help you with that - betterhelp.com/authenticmentalhealth
The best your reading speed will be 168 wpm. Read for content not speed. And if you can't keep up screw them.
I was diagnosed at age 23 with a mild form of dyslexia, but was diagnosed as early as 7th grade with general learning disabilities. I had to figure it out because of uni and more help in my studies.
I was diagnosed with anxiety at a very young age and having ADD checked out and recently decided that I might have dyslexia so I came here and turned out I might it's still getting sorted out so it's a struggle

1. Sometimes
2. Never
3. Yes!
4. Totally
5. Sometimes
6. Not at all
This is my first test, and I’m taking it because I’m a teacher and I’m suspicious about one of my students having dyslexia. The left and right thing always seemed suspicious to me but easier to survive than trouble with reading I guess. However, I didn’t know how to process the information until I saw your answer so thank you.
I don’t know if I have dyslexia but it somethimes I loose my place and I’m not very good at reading aloud but I can see letters fine
Do your teachers at school help you?
I just want to give this guy I thanks I am very dyslexic and the way that he uses his hands to talk helps me to stay focused while listening to what he was saying.
Btw I sayed yes to all 6 questions
i remembered when i was in high school, I was reading in front of the class when my teacher told me that I have a really good speaking voice but Im a very bad reader. i felt embarrassed, I didn't know I was dyslexic that time.

4. Yes
5. Sometimes

Am I dyslexic?
But I know 3 languages fluently and I can speak confidently even without preparation in front of people.
Are you at school? Maybe you could talk to a teacher about this?
Authentic Mental Health no, I am 40 years old have been working since 15 years and I notice question number 4 is where I sometimes have problems at work so I can’t do my job properly because of it.
I messed up answers to questions 2 and 3. Edited now
I said yes to four questions. Am I dyslexic?
Probably
My eyes start straining and I get tired if I try to read too much text at once, so I text-to-speech everything if I'm reading multiple paragraphs instead of single sentences.
There are ways to drastically improve dyslexia. I was diagnosed when I was 6 and was able to almost reverted completely. I am now CEO of a Fintech company in the US. I can play piano, guitar, and compose music. I was also a martial arts champion. Think that Einstein himself was dyslexic and with motivation and hard work you can also excel in life.
Yes I have Dyslexia diagnosis as a kid struggle throughout my whole life but you are absolutely right a person with Dyslexia does not necessarily mean that they are dumb. I have always been a extremely clever creative person and always figured out alternative ways to figure out my problems and Salved them. If you do have it and you feel dumb your not I am Proof that you can be successful and it is not a disability in less you see it as one. I may be slow to read but I am Far from dumb. You can use The way you think to your advantage i’m pretty sure most people suffer from this disorder excel in a particular thing. Just keep looking eventually you’ll find out one thing that you are absolutely the best in. Keep your head up and stay strong!
Thank you so much for your comment and thank you for sharing your story! I am glad to see you have not let your dyslexia ruin or stop you living your life! I am very happy to hear that! Well done you!
Authentic Mental Health By the way I suffer from five of those symptoms
Also by the way keep up the good UA-cam videos I like your content man
thank you so much, I appreciate your support a lot! Are there any videos you would like to see us make?
Authentic Mental Health Sorry for my slow response not used to creators actually responding to comments but I absolutely love all of your videos only recently started to follow your channel but I’m absolutely pleased with your content! I really wish more people would be approaching mental health topics like you did plus describing disabilities helps people understand others a little bit more too so keep up your good work my man!
I would like for you to be able to talk more about learning disabilities people have.
PlusCould you do me a favor and follow my channel I’m going to start doing UA-cam videos plus I have a couple things I’m going to make some videos on mental health to and I wonder if my story would help people.
Authentic Mental Health Also this just popped in my head but would you like to know the psychological effects of somebody having dyslexia and going throughout life with people who were in different to me it might shine some light on what people with disabilities go through and the psychological aftermath
I’m not dyslexic I was just taking the test for fun
What did you score on this test!?
Love your profile pic! Gotta love anime
I was told by a teacher I have it but every time I do ELA map scores I do better then almost all my classmates and I love writing and reading alone
i wish i knew these things when i was a kid, being in the 80s and living with this problem, its heavy being called stupid, I'm in my late 30s now and my friends are admitting that they thought that i was one of smartest kids in the class but still they roasted me "calling me stupid" and man I wanted to the earth to open up and swallow me when it was my turn to read, just pure terror, but good news is yes I finished college in computer networking, and now at a senior possession, although its very hard for me to read out loud, I do address it to people with no shame, and move on.
and to people who have this problem and want to learn, use audio books and if you have extra cash get the hard copy and follow with the reader.
with your mobile phone you have the world's library in your pocket, use it well.
I've got 5/6 I knew long before that I am dyslexic... In the meantime I speak 4 languages and just been admitted to grad school for a Master in real estate I don't even consider myself as inteligent
What if you're not in school no more what if you don't have enough money to go to a doctor?
Do you have insurance? I would highly recommend you speak to someone here who can help you - betterhelp.com/authenticmentalhealth
Nop insurance
It accually helped how you talked, and made hand gestures, keeping up. I had 5 on 6. I was diagnoses, but it's still difficult, cause some don't get it.
So here’s the thing, when I was in 6th grade, I was diagnosed with a learning disability however, they never told me which one. All I know is it was very specific. Flash forward seven years later, my boyfriend and his sister are very observant people. Both of them agreed it is possible I may have dyslexia. They weren’t diagnosing me with it, and I’m not self diagnosing. I’m merely looking up the actual symptoms, comparing them to my symptoms of someone who has a learning disability, and it is likely and I will try to find out if I have it. As you’ve said, it’s life long. Which is why I want and need to find out if I actually do have it so I can find ways to cope. Especially sense I’m in adulthood now and looking for a job and hope to be a parent one day. Reading is also my favorite pass time even though most books are really hard for me to read and understand said book.
I always had dyslexia I don’t really care about it tho I have trouble reading books,signs i can’t spell propaly it kinda sucks
Are you getting help or do you get help for your dyslexia?
Authentic Mental Health I get my dyslexia treated I kinda got used to it
I knew I had dyslexia but I never realized how much it really affected daily things
You are not alone❤️ How are you? Do you follow us on Twitter or I.G? twitter.com/autmentalhealth instagram.com/authenticmentalhealth
I find myself reading a sentence from a book or watching a scene from a movie over and over again ... because I know that if I skip that, I will vaguely understand the book or the movie completely
I visualize words and attach feelings to them. This cripples my use of common words but makes it easy for me to memorize medical terminology, chemistry, and other abstract literature. When I was 9yo I could spell Diphenhydramine, but I couldn't spell words with two of the same letters in succession such as in "spe(ll), le(tt)ers, and su(cc)e(ss)ion" I still struggle with this at age 32. Thank g(oo)dne(ss) for autoco(rr)ect.
5 out 6 I realized when I was about 28 I'm now 40.
I would highly recommend you speak to someone here who can help you - betterhelp.com/authenticmentalhealth
I said yes to all the questions ...I knew it was something wrong ...
Have you ever spoken to anyone before about this? I would highly recommend you speak to someone here who can help you - betterhelp.com/authenticmentalhealth
If you’re under 18 you can speak to someone here - tryonlinetherapy.com/teencounseling please show your parents in order for you to get help!
First off, nothing is wrong. People just say that it is wrong bc we are being told what to believe and say. It's unfair, but hey that's life.
Secondly, just because you think differently doesn't mean anything. Take Albert Einstein for example, he had dyslexia. And so did Thomas Edison. Don't think of it as a bad thing. As the video said, it is extremely common, 20% of the population. If you needed 'FIXING' than so would the rest of the world bc everyone is different and apparently society is trying to take that away from us. Don't listen to them and do what YOU want to do.
Cheesy ik, but true.
when i am talking its like i cant catch up with my brain and forget words
6/6 In elementary school I was in an extra class for kids who need help with reading and math. I found out why I was in that class this year, it was for reading. My dad has dyslexia so my parents were very concerned about how I was going to do with reading. I saw a video of me reading and I was in kindergarten and it was crazy to think how I got Jane and Jeff mixed up while reading. I always thought that I could never really get through reading, but throughout the years I’ve gotten a lot better at my reading abilities by trying to memorize words and how they’re spelled. I get very self-conscious when I’m reading out loud or when we have to do a reading project because I’m one of the kids who takes longer. But since last year I started to label my slow reading and having difficulty with spelling. Its been really helpful, I have excelled far in my reading abilities. Also hi to the people actually read this :) bye.
