This isn't really a mental health issue per say, but I'm curious to see how abnormal this is:
Do you ever read a word completely wrong despite obvious clues to its actual meaning? You know it isn't right because it doesn't make sense so you spend a moment trying to reason it out. Then, eventually, it snaps that you were totally off?
I just read “broke” as “brook" (like broke artist as brook artist). That’s slightly scary. In retrospect, I should have read that word properly! (Maybe it is triggered when a word is visually unfamiliar to me and so I try to sound it out, often wrongly?) This certainly doesn't happen all the time, but when it does, I wonder if my brain is messed up.
