What it’s like with ADHD and Dyslexia

The confusing days and oddball ways

I was born with ADHD and Dyslexia, whereas my old brother has neither and so far my younger brother hasn’t shown signs. I think very differently for everyone around me, I speak and act a different way and it confuses people, they all look at me like I’m weird. Makes me feel more distance from others, on top of being born left handed, makes it harder to learn in a right handed world. But with these slight flaws there also comes an amazing gift to think and imagine so many things, being able to come up with incredible stories and ideas that most don’t even think of! even though I have problems reading and spelling, I can write entire worlds and even universes. Having ADHD and Dyslexia may bring problems every now and then, but I am proud to have it and will always see it as a good thing in my life. I am proud to have such an amazing trait, being “normal” is confusing. being like everyone else, dressing up like everyone else in the world is just repetitive. In my mind it makes no sense, the dyslexia and ADHD have given me an ability. The ability of uniqueness, and eventually that ability will connect with people. And that’s how you find a family. A family of misfits.
