Adult Dyslexia Anthony Ekanem

Dyslexia is a learning disorder that affects an individual's ability to read, spell, write, or speak. Those who have it are often very smart and hardworking, but they have difficulty connecting the alphabets they see to the sounds those alphabets represent. Dyslexia affects mainly the areas of the brain that process language. Dyslexia is an inherent weakness in short-term memory that is either auditory or visual. It can make it extremely difficult for a person to learn and understand the relation between symbols and spoken sounds. This difficulty makes the person unable to correctly pronounce words in such a way that makes a word or sentence sound proper. The severity of the problem of adult dyslexia varies widely among dyslexic people. The main areas of difficulty include reading, writing, spelling, numeric, personal organisation and time-keeping. However, the degree to which it affects individuals may be from mild spelling difficulties to severe organisational problems or complete illiteracy. In all reality, there is nothing like a typical case of dyslexia. In most cases, people with dyslexia are unaware that they are suffering from such a problem. In contrast, others have not had a confirmed diagnosis until adulthood. Adult dyslexia can be difficult to recognise and identify as it is a problem that many people do not realise they have, or they try to hide it. Simple tasks that an individual with dyslexia may perform may become increasingly difficult, such as taking down a message, and this can lead to frustration and anxiety.
