I have mild dyscalculia, but ive always been fine with words. Reading was always my strongest asset in school. I suck at math though.

I was wondering how big a detriment mild dyslexia is. I know a “NEET of 8 years” who basically won’t try at anything because of this. I kind of feel like its an excuse to be lazy, but I can’t say for sure.

    I have mild dyslexia or something. For example, I’ll reverse words in sentences and won’t even realize I’ve done it until my kids start laughing. When reading or listening, sometimes I’ll take in the information but it’s all garbled and my brain just ejects it. I had to adapt and just catch those moments and reread or ask for clarification. I have a post grad degree, so it made life harder but didn’t stop me.
