Thanks for the ideas! I'm probably going to do the read a paragraph at a time and then check for understanding thing. Do you also think using a slip of paper or a bookmark to keep my place on the page would help? That's what my fiance suggested. He seems a bit worried since I used to always read things twice as fast as him in high school.

Thankfully I've already gotten my English comp classes out of the way. I'm in online summer classes now to try to catch up a little because now I'm behind because of having to take GPA booster classes and having an entire semester wiped off my record. I had to read a dialogue by/recorded by Plato the other day and found the only way I could get through it was if I found and audiobook online, set it to 2-3x speed, and followed along in my text. But there doesn't seem to be a lot of audio books available for my textbooks. I hope I can find something that woks well enough over the summer because I don't particularly want to have to ask my parents for help on this because last time I noticed this happening they threatened to keep me out of college, and that seems a bit unnecessary if it's just going to be kinda frustrating and more time consuming but workable and I'm otherwise stable.
