can dyslexia effect how you process emotions? I don't know if its part of my dyslexia but I always feel like my emotions are just in the background unless I'm really annoyed or happy. and most of the time u just don't feel like I feel emotionally.
sorry I don't think this makes much sense but I was just curious.
Dyslexia crosses over with a variety of other areas. Often with Asperger's syndrome or Autistic spectrum Disorder. This could be mild, but could be the reason you are feeling out of step emotionally. There is also a tendency for dyslexics to cover up distress or to mute their responses as this would show others the depth of the processing disorder that they have and increase their "otherness."
It is difficult being different in a neuro-typical world, so hiding emotions becomes second nature and can eventually lead to mental distress.
This is a very important question. For many reasons dyslexia very often comes with low self esteem, which makes dealing with emotional issues more difficult. How you feel about yourself is fundamental to how you relate to others emotionally, and how you value your own feelings. It's difficult to give you advice but continue with your research on this online, tell your GP, dyslexiaaction.org.uk is a good place to start and so is community.dyslexicadvantage... ( an American site).
I understand what you are saying and where you are coming from. Keep questioning and searching for answers. It is hard but satisfying work. I tried various things, but it was only when I found a dyslexic counsellor who worked with dyslexics that I was able to begin proper work. She could 'see' me in a way others couldn't, and is helping me to connect with myself. As the others indicate, survival with 'neuro-typicals' can lead to a habit of covering-up and hiding emotionally. It takes a lot more energy than perhaps you may realise to do that, and I found it a lot easier to keep myself to myself. In the end this is very isolating. Keep going. Thanks for connecting with us here!
Very kind regards,
