This has been on the back of my mind for a while now but i've constantly dismissed it.
Since i was young I've been a slow reader, i constantly skip words and get words jumbled up or combine words together. My eyes hurt sometimes while reading since the white spaces between the letters shift around a lot, furthermore my spelling is horrible, i spell very phonetically and even once I've learnt the word i make silly mistakes with letter placement. I constantly have to repeat the same sentence to fully understand it sometimes and confuse my left and rights when i fully know them. I have trouble with large numbers too, for example when i count zeros i often get it wrong and have to recount several times.
There are more subtle things that i cant think of right now however the main thing that is bugging me right now is reading aloud. I've realized i have a lot of trouble reading to myself and get extremely frustrated. I remember during school i used to dread poetry or literature class since we sometimes had to read aloud from a book and i constantly stutter, mix up words, skip lines etc. I thought it was just nerves but even when reading aloud to myself i make the same mistakes.
I am studying computer science at university and planning to pursue physics in the future. I am a really quick learner when it comes to math, i love algebra, calculus, trigonometry and mechanics. I love physics problems too, however i absolutely hated English language during school (academically wise). I completely sucked at it and had to retake a few times, however what was surprising is i got a decent grade on English literature even though i didn't really plan on passing it. I am also good at history which is also weird for me.
I am 19 now however I've put off talking to a doctor since its always been like this for me, i don't know any better. I'm so used to it so i assumed it was like this for everyone but now im having doubts.
