    I think I might be dyslexic
    « on: August 26, 2016, 03:10:18 pm »
    Even though I have been able to read, and quite well since childhood, I can't quickly tell someone LEFT or RIGHt without looking down at my hands to see that my left hand makes an L shape... or about 5 seconds of thought.  I repeatedly get it wrong.

    No big deal cause I usually say turn North or East or South, etc.. I have spatial intelligence.

    A friend of mine pointed out that I am probably somewhat dyslexic because I can't quickly determine if something is to the left or right.  I brushed it off and told her that I have always been able to read and write well.  But I often can't tell if a letter is a G or J.  They seem to sound so similar.  Jeena or Gina?  Jeans or Geans?

    Last week I was drafting an address onto a building and the six did not look right.  I kept thinking that it looked like a nine, but it wasn't a nine.  I printed out a small copy and looked at it, didn't look right kind of looked like a J.  Printed out a large copy and looked... it was backwards. 

    I guess I will take some tests online cause I am sure you will have nothing to say except maybe "can you tell your left boob from your right?"  Yes, the right one has a small brown freckle and I pierced it once so I remember.  The other one  is plain white skin and never pierced.

      Here is the text:  http://www.testdyslexia.com/


      Here are my results.  I am dumb.

      The biggest problem areas seem to be:

      Listening and/or Speech
      Writing and/or Motor Skills
      Behavior, Health, Development and/or Personality
      This person may have moderate difficulties in these areas:

      General Academic
      Vision, Reading, and/or Spelling
      Math and/or Time Management
      Memory and/or Cognition

      This is my most severe catagory:
      Attention Focus
      Shifts of attention caused by disorientation can reverse or alter the senses of motion, balance and time. This person may be "hyper," easily distracted, impulsive or a daydreamer.

        Looks like I might:

        Becomes frustrated or overwhelmed with long forms or sequential processes.
        Thrives in careers where visual-spatial/kinesthetic talents can be realized: For example – Entrepreneurs, Engineers, Trades (carpentry, plumbing, electrical), Artisans, Interior Decorating, Actors, Musicians, Police/Investigation, Athletes, and Business Executives (usually with staff/assistants).
        Difficulty with tests – passing standardized tests can be a barrier to career advancement.
        Highly successful/over achiever, or considered “not working up to potential.” Either way, displays extreme work ethic.
        May be a perfectionist and overreact when they make a mistake.
        Out-of-the-box thinker or operates with very strict rules for themselves.
        Learns best through hands-on experience, demonstrations, experimentation, observation, and visual aid.
        Highly intuitive – known to have “street smarts.”
        May be able to sense emotions of others.
        Easily distracted/annoyed by noises and other things in environment.
        May appear to “zone out” and be unaware that it is happening.
        Misspeaks, misuses, or mispronounces words without realizing it.
        May have poor balance or is/was very athletic.
        May have excellent recall of events that were experienced or not remember at all.
        May confuse past conversations or be accused of “not listening.”
        Difficulty remembering names of people, remembers faces.
        Difficulty reading unfamiliar fonts.
        Reading fluency and comprehension fluctuates depending upon subject matter.
        Reliance on others (assistants, spouses, significant others) for written correspondence.
        Words out of context look “wrong.”
        Difficulty with left/right.
        Never forgets a place they’ve been.
        May have anxiety or stress when driving in unfamiliar places. Relies on others to drive when possible.
        May lose track of time and is frequently late – or is highly aware of it and is very rarely late
        May have a short fuse or is easily frustrated, angered, or annoyed.
        Easily stressed and overwhelmed in certain situations.
        Low self-esteem
        Sticks to what they know – fear of new tasks or any situation where they are out of comfort zone.
        Extremely disorderly or compulsively orderly.
        Confusion, stress, physical health issues, time pressure, and fatigue will significantly increase symptoms.

            No I took a stupid online test that is directed to make you think you have it so they can "treat you."

            Although i sometimes hit 4 in stead of A I don't think I am.  Probably just worried.

                I'm not.  I have a person in my life constantly undermining me. 

                That is retarded in itself.
