Dyslexia is a physical neurological condition, NOT a mental illness... I know some countries still consider it mental illness but it isn't....

some countries consider epilepsy to be a mental illness also but it too is a neurological disorder and physical brain condition.

To me "mental illness" denotes a pattern of warped thinking of reality, sometimes trauma induced, sometimes patterned for them by role models in their life.
Thanks for this!
