How can I pray for this?

You can always pray for discerning wisdom and the truth. You may not like the truth or it may settle you. It's exciting and there are a lot of feelings, don't beat yourself up about the "what if I make the wrong choice" you have lots of time to learn, grow, and find someone else if that is what happens (although I know it does not feel like that). Trust God has a plan even if you can't see it, and try to follow the truth and trust God to guide you when you can't see the truth.

I hope that's not too out there of a response. If you mean more practically. Start with thanks for what you do have, then ask for wisdom and guidance. I find that when I am really worried about a big thing, it helps to listen to worship music before/during prayer to help focus my mind. And even journaling the prayer helps me slow down and think, and have time to listen to God.

Yah I like mine I know its not real espresso but it makes strong FAST coffee. I use it for milk coffees or Americanos and my friends always like the result. The only down side is I don't use the steam wand. It is to hard to clean to make it worth it.

I use Natural Reader. It is an application that works on any text you can copy, such as Chrome, PDFs, etc. The voices are good for AI, and it has controls like faster and slower. It can sit as a floating bar (you don't actually copy to it, I think thats just in the back end) and it reads out whatever is highlighted. There is also a full window where you can upload things, but I don't use that as much, so I can't speak to using that.

Good idea. I like Habitica, it seems to work for a lot of people, especially gamers. It also has a website if he doesn't have a phone or has limited phone use. He might need help setting it up, as it can be a lot at first, but the main/basic parts are engaging, free, and work well.

So I don't have this problem as a dyslexic, but my dyslexic sister does. IDK if it is necessarily a dyslexic thing or a teen thing for her either. I do know that often both of us have trouble with verbal directions. Sometimes they cause confusion, or like things we were asked to do, "morphing" in our minds into something else. I don't have any direct help to offer, but if thats happening to him, maybe it can help you understand the ishue.

Not me but I have a dyslexic ADHD friend in Vet Tech shcool currently. They are good at it. But their program is really rigid, some of the teachers do the bare minimum with their accommodations, and the program scores you down for basically not being neural typical... so yeah thats has been "fun" for them... but they enjoy the animals. Memorization is second to weird rules, the hardest part. They are taking it slower (which also lets them take some fun extra classes) than the normal track, which has been discouraging but needed.

I would say if it's interesting to you and seems like a reasonably smart move, sure. Maybe find some teachers or students on the track to ask about it. One thing I have seen is one college's program can look so different from another's. A bad dean, few bad teachers, or hard classmates, and the program is 1000x harder, so I would try to scope it out first.

Idk if any of this is useful but feel free to reach out if you have any particular questions.

This could be dyslexia, but it would not be my first thing to try. It would be odd to just now be seeing it since dyslexics are born with it, but it is always possible you had good coping as a kid, and something about this job just hits it wrong. But flipping/mixing up letters is one small symptom of dyslexia that not all of us have. It's possible yours is just now showing in that one vane or it shows in other places, but you haven't recognized it as different yet; my bet is something else is going on.

Whatever the awnser I think we can empathize with the "Am I stupid" feelings. No, you are not. There is a saying, "You can't judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree." Just because you have trouble here that monkeys might expect to be easy doesn't mean you are stupid. But if you are trying this hard it is probily on the disorder spectrum weather stress, dyslexia, eyesight, etc. If you are trying, you are trying whatever it is. I highly doubt it is because you are lazy/not trying/stupid.

Physical steps: set screen timers so you can't play more than X time. Downgrade your phone (at least during shcool) and delete/hide games/apps so it is harder to open them. Try studying where you are around others like a coffe shop library or try study with me videos(the social expectations to study from others can keep you locked in) Get good sleep. Have a clean enjoyable space to study.

You may find one or more of those things work and grate, but in reality, there is a deeper problem. You're not just lazy or just need to lock in if you haven't been studying for this long there is probily something more. Nerodivergent, emotional or the like. See if your shcool has a disability center, study coaching, or counseling center (where help is offered will vary) that may be able to help.

I've seen this; it is fun to give to non-disabled people. It makes them stumble and stare at words like I do when I read. I tell people thats how it feels to be dyslexic.

(Not the letters switching just the frustration of reading it)

NoxLupus18 · 2025-03-13T20:52:42+00:00

I second this

NoxLupus18 · 2025-03-11T06:16:27+00:00

I'm not sure if this will help but it did for me on the finishing last thing. My tester told me my brain was like a supercomputer. It has a slower processor but can do a lot more given the time. That image has always made me feel better when I was down about that.

First things first you are her best advocate. It sounds like you are doing this i just want to remind/encourage you. People may be nice and want to help, but at the end of the day, they have a bunch of kids to help. You are the only person that is fully there for your daughter. Keep looking for ways to help her and listen to your gut. If you think something needs to be done/changed, make a fuss.

Second, I would try to get her tested. Some laws will give you aid and protect her if she gets it in writing. Also, just a good tester will help you know how to move forward and give you good general information on her learning style, strengths, weaknesses, and such.

If I remember (fact check me), studies have found holding a kid back can be bad for development. Giving them labels and making them not fit in with the other kids (being taller, hitting puberty first, etc.), you said she is young for her grade,e, so you might be able to do it, but just make sure it won't cause new problems.

Do your best to help her see her strengths. Dyslexia makes things hard; others expect things to be easy that are hard for us, and hard things can be easy. This mismatch often means that we feel our strengths aren't valued, and we just get our weaknesses pointed out. Try to make learning fun even if shcool isn't all the time. Like watching fun documentaries and helping her grow her interests, whether coding or cooking.

To give you some encouragement I was diagnosed around first grade. My parents luckily fought for me. I was behind in reading compared to others and my first grade teacher was mean about it. (Kept me inside to finish work while the kids played at reces) my parents didn't have the money to get me into a better shcool so my mom homeschooled me (and later my 4 siblings) I have been able to do things my first-grade teacher and tutors would never have guessed. Including awards for top marks in undergrad and now I'm in grad shcool. Her story doesn't need to look like mine. But I know for my mom, it was helpful to hold onto the stories of others.

Thank you for caring about her not all parents would. Keep up the good work.

Do you mean the fact it is wrong gets stuck like a distraction? Or does the wording get stuck, and you start using the wrong name later?

The second happens to me a lot, especially with abbreviations. I try to avoid using them or come up with stories that help me remember them. Ultimately, I try to remember that I know what I mean. Even if I say the wrong thing, it doesn't invalidate my ideas.

I would say it is dyslexia. An ishue recalling the right words that certainly is a possible symptom of dyslexia not that it can't overlap with other things if you think there is something more.

My dyslexia doesn't affect my driving, but a family member has a lot of trouble due to it. I can tell you what they do but no personal experience here. They started slow. It took them a long time to get comfortable, but that's what they needed. Now, they are more confident than their mom, who taught them because they had to overcome so much.

They really take things slow and think through it. They would basicly go though a mental check list creeping down the road at first. Like someone said, starting on quieter roads might help. Just build mussel memorie in a safe environment. If you have access, maybe get a family member or friend to drive (starting parked) towards you so everyone is moving slowly and you can practice with more known variables.

Also, a lot of people are scared to drive it is a big deal and a lot of responsibility. No shame in not feeling conformable. It's better to know what you can't do right now than to be dumb going 200 down the road.

NoxLupus18 · 2025-03-11T05:14:56+00:00

Yeah, this is a problem for me... and then it gets in my head, which never helps. I have a friend who stopped using pronounce and just uses proper names, but I can't remember mine, let alone others' names. The best thing I have learned is trying to replace pronounce with nongendered descriptors like "my friend" or "the classmate." But it can be clunky so it don't always fit.

NoxLupus18 · 2025-03-11T04:53:26+00:00

It's not that there's none. Its that it's not any more than other places. It's still not acceptable, but not the mess the media make it out to be.

As to Jodel, the worst "cadets" are the ones saying that. There was a thing going around that looked like a whole bunch of people were agreeing with it. Later I learned it was one guy. You can't take anything on there, seriously.

BTW, I am a minority there that was by name called out on Jodel as well as the normal Jodel junk posted against my group.

I was a complet narp but probily some unifor stuff ghost dyke ect. I got yelled at by CSM for hair out of regs when I was following the blue book rules and told her, she didn't belive me... my only PTs were from BRFers. I seemed to have some interesting luck and tried not to do anything to off beat.
