So, I am dyslexic. I never caught it because it's not in reading. I love to read, and the letters never really move around for me (I lose my line quite a bit, though, and sometimes my OCD makes me read sections or words multiple times or scroll up and down past a particular bit to get it just right).
I always wrote my a's and 3's backwards in second grade, and confused my b's and d's and p's and q's. I was in second grade, for heaven's sake, and rather good at spelling, if you ignored the confusion, so that slipped. Third and fourth grade, it lessened a bit but still continued, but that was online school. Almost everything was typed. It really showed itself in fifth and sixth grade, but I learned to catch my mistakes. Now, in seventh grade, I still struggle with mixing them up.
I'm still good with spelling, though, so I've got that going for me. But I'm in Algebra II, and I struggle with my times tables of 6, 7, and 8. And it was even worse in years previous. In the sixth grade, I still had to count on my fingers. And I'm horrible at subtraction. I'm doing trigonometry, and complex and imaginary numbers, and factoring polynomials, and so much more, and I still have to use my fingers to subtract 58 from 93. Or scratch paper.
I was far off the mark when repeating numbers back in reverse order, too. Horrible.
I've got five indicators out of nine. And I never realized I could have it, because I was reading the images in picture books at six months old. I spoke three languages at two years old. I was reading chapter books voluntarily by the first grade. I was in the student council, and a higher math level, and the gifted program, for goodness sake, what more do you want? How could I have dyslexia?
And then I took the results to my mom (she's a doctor), and she was like, "Oh, yeah, you have dyslexia. I've known since you were in second grade.".
Wow.
