I'm the complete opposite -   I love reading.

It takes me ages and ages   to read books.

So I didn't read till I was 12,   and then I read a book a day.

I sometimes read   and I follow the sentence down

like, used to move around   and just go crazy.

I get extra letters and letters   going... Mixed around. Yeah.

Yeah, they're just funky and   sometimes like "Hey, I'm an O,

and it's like, "You're not meant   to go there."

Yes. I was literally about to say,   spell check is my best friend.

because if you can't spell the word   in the first place,

you don't know whether it's   correcting it to be right or wrong.

After you do an essay   or something like that,

you can just press one button   and you be like,

"Yeah, that's what I meant, that's   what I meant, that's what I meant."

I have to get three people   to check anything I post,

just in case I put something   really rude.

I hate it at the same time.   "Did you mean this?"

"You condescending little BLEEP. But  yes, please, thank you. Thank you."

So I've had that all my life. "You   need to focus, you need to focus,

"you're not focusing.   You need to try harder."

My parents, my teachers   thought I was just...

According to my mum, I'm lazy.   Lazy gang!

And they just thought I was rude   as opposed to

thinking that I couldn't engage with  what was happening.

"Ah, put Post-it notes around   your room, like, do a mind map,

"use different colours."   That never used to work for me.

Cos everyone is different,   everyone should, in my opinion,

learn in a different way   or at a different speed.

I enjoy going at my own pace,   you know?

I'm not lazy, I just like going   things at my own pace. You know?

Ohh. "It's not fair   that you get longer on exams."

I would swap it in a heartbeat,   though, to not have dyslexia.

I've had people say, "Well, you   shouldn't get extra time in exams,

"because you don't have extra time   in life"

I basically wouldn't have   any qualifications

If you've got an additional   educational need

you need to be given that time   to process.

Everything that was going on   in my head,

I wanted to put it on   the piece of paper,

but I couldn't read fast enough and   I just couldn't write fast enough.

and I used to have   the worst anxiety attacks.

I think it's kind of, like,   condescending sometimes,

because I think sometimes   people are actually faking it.

They don't get what dyslexia means,   so it's kind of their own ignorance.

It's like, if you're bad at reading   or you don't like reading

I think there's loads of things   you could mistake for it.

Really patronising.   Yeah, and really patronising.

and I kind of feel like   they're trying to belittle...

Any true dyslexic wouldn't go,   "I'm dyslexic as well."

You try and hide it the best you   can, until someone finds you out,

you just go, "Yeah, I am,"   and you instantly become

very aggressive towards them.   Yeah, you go, "Yeah? And?"

OK, we've got...   "You're just a bit thick."

"Slow", I've been called "idiot",   I've been called "weird".

"Waste of space." Well, maybe   dyslexic people are stupid,

Yes, it's important to talk about   diversity as race and gender
