thank you Denise for your sharing your story! I am coming back to this vid 6 years later and realizing how much i need to hear this right now, so thank you :)
It's funny how I just came across this video. This definitely just made me tear up. I am dyslexic and ADD. I had a hard time growing up with family, friends and teachers that would call me stupid and make fun of me all the time. At one point they told me I wouldn't go to college and I'd be lucky to graduate from high school. I did everything I could to prove them wrong! Even though it's taking me longer than the average person I am doing pretty well in college and that's with no accommodations. (I chose not to inform the school of my disability because I didn't want to be labeled)I have a final this week and I tend to start getting down on myself before I start testing. Sometimes that definitely effects my test scores. Even though my husband and my mother are amazing and they show me so much love and support.. I needed a positive outlet. So that's actually when I started watching some of Jackie's videos(she's the best) and a couple other beauty bloggers...it helps me relax. But this video just helped me on another level. It reminded me that I can do this and it's OK to have a learning disability or disabilities in my case. I shouldn't be ashamed!!! I'm almost finished with my bachelors degree and I'm going straight into my masters degree once I'm finished. Sorry for the long comment but thank you for sharing your story!
Thank you for sharing your story. Just like you, it takes me longer to do things, but don't ever let that stop you from chasing your dreams. Greatness takes time, and you were born to be great! All the best with your studies.
@@MrWorkSmarter And alas; there are also: =MANY "Story's of "SuccessFULL_Dyslexics -etc."" ("Dyslexia_Success Stories"). And so on and so 4th. (M.K.S.). P.S. And A.D.D./A.D.H.D., too!!
I love this video so much. as a kid with dyslexia I was ashamed with my dyslexia. now I try to embrace it. it is still a sensitive topic to me because of my father, who also has it, was bullied and called stupid while he was in school, and I too had a traumatizing event of embarrassment by a substitute teacher. much love❤ say hi to Jackie for me
Pleased to hear you're now embracing it. I was also called stupid. But don't let people's opinions become a fact. Stay strong and use your difference to make a difference. it's funny how things work out; because the people that initially looked down at me, now look up to me for advice!
I applaud you it takes tremendous courage to reveal who you are ,what I like the best is when you said let your difference make a difference ,it made me cry beautiful
That first 30 seconds was extremely powerfull. I was in the same boat. Now In my second year of a degree. Diagnosed with dyslexia, dyspraxia and ADHD in year 2. Got the diagnoses and never heard from the dept again! I'm sick of being offered tools and resources when all I want is a deeper understanding of why I cannot structure an essay and why do things make perfect sense to me and not to others. Medicated for ADHD and desperate to tackle this exactly how you described over the summer. Game face time! And thank you for the vid. I'm guesssi that wasn't easy.
I'm ADHD and I have a undiagnosed dyslexia and and I have always been embarrassed by it so much I don't want to be labeled because growing up I was told I was dumb and stupid
I am dyslexic and this crush my esteem, I had Zero confidence in ladies and life...Now I pitch to investors from different parts of the world. I'm starting afresh in life after the #ENDSAR in Nigeria.
I remember when I was in the 6th grade and our teacher thought it would be fun to do scrabble every week and I was the absolute worst because I couldn’t ever put the letters together in big enough words to win and I get it she probably thought it would be a good idea to take a day off the week in the class but it really hurt my self esteem
Hey bro! I’m dyslexic too.. hope everything’s all good.. Brunel helped me a lot with my dyslexia. Not sure if you remember me.. we done the same course at Uni.
Great video I'm dyslexia too.I have a small doubt I'm in India and i want to come abroad for My studies so can I get admission from universities in 🇬🇧 . In our country dyslexia students are not getting required attentions they don't care about us ..... sometimes even my parents and cousins call me idiots and they also tell I'm not good at anything things.. sometimes I think why I was born .. 😞😞😞
I wish we changed or add the laws in America and all around the world so all the adults with dyslexia would get assistive technology help in every day life with reading and writing. We should the future for kids and adults alike.
lol i got diagnosed at brunel too. its my mission to encourage those who also suffer from it too. Imagine my boss tried to put it in my performance review. mate...there should be a law against that!
I love your Vulnerability and your authenticity you are so awesome

Your story is very true and I always witness it on how people talk to children and adults which affects their self esteem
God bless for people like you.

Thank you for your kind words. You were born different for a reason, discover your calling and be great!
Thank you for sharing your story. I can relate, I am dyslexic too. I felt ashamed and still struggle but finding my way through. God bless!!!! 🙏🏽

barbatos gaming stay positive and don't let anyone's negative words become your reality. Use your difference to make a difference!!

I wish, that I could - "support India's dyslexics; (especially -children)!!"
**I have your back.**
The background music comes from one of the PlayStation 4 themes, correct?

Hi this is a amazing brilliant video. My question is why is there more secsefull black and asion people with dyslexia in the UK!
lol i got diagnosed at brunel too. its my mission to encourage those who also suffer from it too. Imagine my boss tried to put it in my performance review. mate...there should be a law against that!
yes, there are laws in place, but not many people are aware of it. I definitely want to do more to spread the awareness.
Hey bro., would you -consider: "#Mentoring -Dyslexics: across =Africa and ASIA/travelling to etc.!!"??
-M.K.S. Dyslexics, we can!!
-M.K.S.
Great Video...Well done!
Thanks Liz, pleased you like.
