I was actually tested recently and my IQ has dropped since being depressed because of a major problem following written material and responding appropriately and quickly enough (the skill had a fancy name but I can't remember it, sorry). I have to edit what I write with screen-reading software so that it makes sense, and I struggle reading even with the screen-reading software. I only skimmed the article (I only skim most things these days unfortunately - used to LOVE reading too!) too.

Exactly, Willow! I skim pretty much everything unless it is short enough or laid out in a very specific way. I wanted to be a writer. Now I struggle to find words. Sometimes I forget how to make the letters or numbers when writing and not typing. I wrote 1:00 with the 1 under the 0s

^Like that, and I just stared at it knowing it was wrong but it took me a minute to realize why. Then I just wanted to cry. But instead took a picture of it with my phone as "proof" I gues.
