Help to get diagnosed

2023-07-12 04:26:49
I think I have some kind of learning disability... Probably dislexia.. i am not sure. But I have struggled a lot with my studies in childhood especially when it came to reading and writing. But I have found ways to deal with it myself over the years. I am 28 now and I want to know for sure if l actually have such a condition that made it so difficult for me. Is it possible to get a diagnosis for learning disability as an adult. If so how? Is it possible over online consultation.

Yes, diagnosis is possible in adulthood. It is not possible via online consultation, you need to consult a clinical Psychologist in-person.
