I have a bit of dyslexia and ADD, from probably 7th grade on, my mom would get me books on tape (I guess Audible now) so that I could hear the words, and follow along. It was super helpful in building my confidence because I hated popcorn reading because I’d pronounce a word wrong. This helped because I already had heard it.

Dyslexia: Advice, tips or guidance? -
Minimizing STUFFI'm someone who typically gets in over my head when it comes to organizing because I'm like it "all needs to go!" but I've found if I set like 30 minutes and pick a small section, I'm more effective. Example: my closet, is organized by short/sleeveless and long sleeve and then color. So I would go and try on everything in one color a day. That way it wasn't overwhelming but I could see the progress.
