I’m loving you all for the info . And insight into my jacked up brain. I’m 66 and recently took a test and I’m off the chart. Wish I knew about this 60 years ago, better late than never tho. Thank you for helping me understand it’s not me just being dumb , stupid and lazy, like I’ve been told my entire life. I feel sooo much better learning about dyslexia!!! Thank you. Trudy
