🧠 Did you know? Dyslexia and ADHD often go hand in hand.
While dyslexia is primarily known as a reading difference, it’s more than just mixing up letters—it’s a unique way of processing language. And for about 25% to 40% of people with dyslexia, ADHD is part of the picture too.
That means if your child has dyslexia, there’s a real chance they may also be navigating ADHD—and vice versa. Recognizing this overlap can lead to better support, earlier intervention, and more compassionate understanding.
📚 Dual diagnosis matters. It’s not about labels—it’s about unlocking the right tools, strategies, and strengths.
If you’re a parent, educator, or advocate, this is your reminder to look beyond attention and behavior. Reading challenges might be part of the story too.
