This happens sporadically. I have severe OCD and Depression, and I'm uncertain if it has anything to do with my mental illness. I've suspected I have Dyslexia for a long time, perhaps since I was eleven years old.
I'll read a sentence, and it just won't fucking make sense. At all. I'm not sure as to why, I'll keep re-reading it but it just won't make sense whatsoever. This happens a lot when I'm reading or studying. It'll be an immensely simple sentence, but it just won't make sense, sometimes I'll stop what I'm doing because it gets so goddamn frustrating.
This happens with numbers as well. I'll look at a number say, 76. And I genuinely think it says 67. I don't know what this is. If anybody sympathizes, I'd love to discuss it.
Does this happen completely randomly, or with specific contexts (i.e when reading in certain places, reading about certain subjects, reading about things you are/aren't interested in)? Between about 10 and 12 I had real trouble in English classes, and would end up staring at a question for an entire lesson just unable to parse it. Not sure if it's part of the autism or if it's a sign there's some ADHD too.
Absolutely randomly. It just springs on sometimes. I have done online/home school since I was in the 7th grade, so it gets extremely frustrating a lot of the time, for example; I'll be reading a book I'm really into and I'll read a simple sentence, and it won't make sense at all.
I have really bad trouble in my English classes as well. I got held back a grade because of it and did the exact same thing. I frequently had breakdowns at school because I couldn't understand a very simple question.
