Sweetheart you are close to making sense but the spelling is off. I get "I hate word salads".

If your keyboard is sticking, it might be the software that you are using. Or if you are using a tablet or a phone and it's taking too long for words to spell out, you may need to reboot or clean out cache or both?

I get word salad with one of my email apps or used to get that before they updated on their end.

I noticed other posts mentioning chat rooms. I think that those apps may require frequent cache cleans, but that's my uneducated guess thinking about how chats do drain a bit on various systems.

It's not my computer doing word salad when I do that, it's me not hitting the right keys and not knowing I got the wrong keys

Are you looking at the screen when you type?

I'm prone to typos and grammatical missmosh when distracted and not placing all my focus on my typing/written skills.
It also helps when I'm wearing my glasses and am not overtired.

I look at the keyboard then glance at the screen normally, idk why I type gibberish when I'm going into word salad mode

I think from experience at PC, most members are pretty forgiving of typos and even word salad moments. And I'd hope that if someone couldn't understand a post, a polite request for clarification would occur. Plus editing posts remains an option for a period of time and if you caught yourself you could clarify either within your post or in the reason area when edit is opened.

Severe learning difficulty, that doesn’t mean much I don’t think Did they offer any help or suggestions? And what did they base that diagnosis on?

They did some tests and I found the tests hard, which is what they are basing it on

The test was mostly numbers and shapes and I have always needed time to think through what the answer might be, particularly with numbers and the woman doing the test wanted a quick answer each time

The only "help" they gave me was a report about the findings
