I'm glad I found your blog - I've been looking for more resources to show curious parents when I mention Irlen Syndrome. I am a screener, I became qualified a year ago, and I've aleady found that so many of my students, even up to year 12, have been undiagnosed. Sadly, some of them get right to their HSC exams (I'm based in NSW australia) without getting help. It's incredibly frustrating when schools don't accept it as a legitimate issue, but that is slowly changing, I hope...
I recently wrote a blog post about this at I hope that more and more people come to understand abut Irlen Syndrome and the immense impact that Irlen filters can have on individuals' quality of life and learning. For all that people argue that it's a fad (only people who have never met someone with the overlays or lenses could say such a thing), light in the classroom is a huge issue. I've not walked into a single classroom where the majority of students didn't instinctively want the fluorescent lights to stay off, regardless of how dark it seemed.
I recently wrote an article on the importance of Irlen awareness, with a couple of examples from my experience with Irlen students. If you'd like to check it out, the link is: http://www.learningandwriting.com/blog/refocusing-on-irlen-syndrome if you're interested, please check it out. And I'd love to know if you're on twitter.
It is no secret that I have a very deep and personal relationship with God. I have pushed and resisted that relationship this past year through all the bullshit I have had to go through living with Herpes but once again, God is bigger than my stubbornness and broke through that outbreak cold sore and all I had Genital Herpes. For me personally, hearing over and over how I am not good enough has really invaded my mind in the worst way possible. I completely shut down and I was just waking up like is this how life going to end this temporary herpes outbreak “fuck everybody with herpes if you know what I mean” but let's be honest here... It is cowardly to say no to herbal medicine. It is fear based. And it is dishonest to what my heart wants. Don't build a wall around yourself because you are afraid of herbals made or taking a bold step especially when it's come to health issues and getting cured. So many young men/ women tell me over and over that Dr Itua is going to scam me but I give him a try to today I feel like no one will ever convince me about herbal medicine I accept Dr Itua herbal medicine because it's cure my herpes just two weeks of drinking it and i have been living for a year and months now I experience outbreak no more, You can contact him if you need his herbal medicine for any such diseases like, Herpes, Parkinson, Diabetes, Hepatitis, Syndrome, Cancers, HIV, Epilepsy, Infertility, and any kind of disease & Infections Love Spell,. Email..drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com then what's app.+2348149277967.... My advice to any sick men/women out there is simple... Be Always an open book. Be gut wrenching, honest about yourself, your situation, and what you are all about. Don't hold anything back. Holding back will get you nowhere...maybe a one way ticket to lonelyville and that is NOT somewhere you want to be. So my final truth...and I'm just starting to grasp this one..
