Learning Disabillitys


Question Posted Wednesday March 12 2014, 3:03 pm

I just turned 15 and am a sophomore and a girl.
I started homeschooling in 5th grade.

My mother and my older brother where both were tested and have dyslexia.

When I started school my mom noticed the signs and recognized them as dyslexia, and helped me deal with it.
So I've always known I'm dyslexic even though I was never tested.

In about 7th or 8th grade, my grades started slipping especially in math, science and history.
I have problems understanding and remembering what I learn, understanding instructions, pronouncing words(even though I know the proper pronunciation), I'll forget what people are talking about while they're still saying it, among other things.

I play a little piano though I can't read notes and though I've tried to learn(even took two years of lessons), I still can't.

Recently, I started looking into other disabilities. I think I might have some others, and want to get tested. The thing is, I live in the middle of nowhere and the only person who could test me is retired and lives 5 hours away.

Do any of you know what I could have other than dyslexia? Is all of this normal? Are there any tests or anything online I could take?

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

A psychiatrist would be able to determine this. There really is no test to find out if one has a disability or not nor online does not determine one's mental compatibility.

Yes, You should see a psychiatrist if you are concerned.
