Should I tell my employer that I have dyslexia ?

[@Mrrabbit56]

Thank you so much for sharing this. I am 41 years of age and I found out two weeks ago that I have dyslexia. Like you, I am also working in a bank :) and I was undecided about telling my employer until i watched your video. I have to say I have had a lot of negative thoughts over the last two weeks, ( I was never really one for asking for support) but I have decided to let them know. Thanks again, I really appreciate it from Dublin, Ireland.

It's best looking elsewhere is a perfect sentence,if the disability doesn't get understood and there are some unfair treatments then it's not good. I told my disability and yet they're always annoyed that it's hard for me to comprehend tge tasks yhst I'm given

Thanks for that. I am a Chartered Accountant working in a West End accounting firm. I have been working for my current firm for almost a year and have not told them that I am dyslexic (for matters most of us here understand). I don't know whether I should...but your video is convincing and maybe it would be best to just embrace who I am and f*** the haters.

I’m 23 an never told anyone I’m dyslexic 😔

[@Pro1938ftc3ch]

Don't worry about it.

[@sonitclef8675]

it be like that sometimes honestly depends on the person you are thinking of telling whether you think they would be accepting or not. my employer would say nah and sack me lol

[@eldonjanzen9822]

My advice; never reveal you have dyslexia especially to you employer and especially if you work with students in a school settings. Your employer is the school principal and most not all principals or administrators have never experienced what you go through on a daily basis. Remember(very important) administrator are concern with two things 1. Money and 2. Politics. If your interfere with that perception your in trouble.

Great video, thank you!

[@mimia103]

Omg, I am so happy I came across this video. I was thinking about telling my employer

[@adutv9834]

Love video I have dyslexic thank for the tips

[@eldonjanzen9822]

My advice: don't do it, don't tell your employer. They "the employer" have no clue what you are or what dyslexia really is.

[@sabrinasususa6957]

In my case not only i have dyslexia but also adhd and hearing problems so i think I'm gonna get strongly hated In terms of normal talking it's all fine but when someone talks with soft voice from far i find hard to hear

[@nikolugo]

Im dyslexic and I always felt embarrassed by it

[@eldonjanzen9822]

Don't feel embarrassed. There is alot of us dyslexics out there, find them and connect with them if you can. Most of us have some pretty good strategies for hiding our dyslexia. It's only "disability" to the nuerotypical persons because they have no clue who we are and how smart we are.

I have that too I'm from UK I HAVE THAT TOO

[@kenxdeath]

just started a new job and I’m afraid to tell my employer that I have dyslexia. I’m a service maintenance worker for a large private property company and their is a lot of writing. Either to keep records or write a letter resident. I managed to slip on bye for a couple days but I’m afraid if I tell them I’m going to be let go.

[@eldonjanzen9822]

Don't tell anyone. You are a; "nuerodiverent" individual and most people around you are; "nuerotypical" or i like to call them "radom access memory trivia pursuit flash card persons." They remember a lot of "facts" but hav extreem difficulty connecting the facts and find patterns which we dyslexics do quickly on a daily bases. We find the logical connections were our nuerotypical associates suck at it.
