Truth About Dyslexia - Help For Adults

Ups & Downs


Listen Later


In this episode, we explore the emotional highs and lows that come with dyslexia. Some days, everything flows smoothly, and life feels amazing. Other days, it feels like you've hit a wall, struggling to find motivation or purpose. I share my personal experiences, coping mechanisms, and insights from my dyslexia coach on the importance of purpose.

We also dive into how supplements like 5-HTP might help regulate mood and reduce anxiety. If you’ve ever felt these ups and downs, know that you’re not alone—this is part of how the dyslexic mind works. Tune in for insights, strategies, and encouragement.




Takeaways

  • Emotional highs and lows are common with dyslexia – It’s not just you!

  • Purpose matters – The dyslexic brain thrives when it understands why it’s doing something.

  • Coping strategies help – Finding what works for you (e.g., movement, rest, supplements) can make a big difference.

  • 5-HTP & serotonin – Exploring ways to support brain chemistry can help balance moods.

  • Acceptance is key – Learning to work with, not against, dyslexia can improve well-being.
