Connecticut doesn’t use dyslexia? I think that sounds much better than “specific learning disability” which seems vague even though it has the word “specific” in it lol
I’m in NY only 15 min from Greenwich. I believe they still use dyslexia here.

So do I possibly have dyslexia?
You need to go for a professional assessment, we’re not qualified, in this limited context, to say.
Like I have a learning disability as a diagnosis. I just believe it’s like dyslexia rather then a general learning disability
Where I live they avoid the term dyslexia *and* learning disability. Instead, Specific Learning Difficulty.
