How an accident reconnected me with my Dyslexia

Im absolutely delighted to share with you our guest Suzy Taylor    Suzy explains:   I am one of the people who acquired dyslexia/dyspraxia. I can link this back to the illness I had as a child.   I was diagnosed as a child as dyslexic. I did not know about the dyspraxia till later in life.  I had an accident after my work one day. This was through a badly parked van. I did not see the car and was knocked down. I broke my leg 3 times and fractured my ankle. This meant surgery and a period of time off work.  After returning to work I had a lot of problems. I had not realised my dyslexia was a problem.  It had taken months to work out that dyslexia was a problem. I was working in administration and faced years of no support and discrimination. This led me to have a nervous breakdown and left the place I had worked for 20yrs.  Through this I had support from Dyslexia Scotland. I have manged to get my SCQF level 8 in Counselling and Psychotherapy. Done courses with Call Scotland to aid people with dyslexia through technology.    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My aim is to educate, inspire and motivate people to see a different side to Neurodiversty 💙   Please like , share and subscribe for more podcasts 🙌    If you would like to appear on one of my Neurodiversity Stories then please contact me on: [email protected]    Also follow us on: Instagram @neurodiversity_stories    LinkedIn @neurodiversity Stories    Facebook @ neurodiversity Stories   A big thank you to our sponsor: Data OPS Limited Data OPS Limited is a London based bespoke applications developers that help companies better manage data and business processes.
