Visual spatial processing disorder in adults leads to difficulties with interpreting visual information, despite having normal vision. This condition can negatively impact daily life, including driving, writing, and multitasking. Individuals may experience increased anxiety when handling visual information, especially during driving situations. Forgetting things becomes common without written reminders, and issues like micrographia can complicate reading one's own notes. Multitasking abilities may diminish, resulting in a decreased awareness of concurrent activities, all of which contribute to challenges in both social and academic settings.
Visual spatial processing disorder in adults refers to difficulties interpreting and making sense of visual information, despite having normal vision. This can affect tasks like reading, writing, spatial awareness, and hand-eye coordination, impacting daily life, academics, and social interactions.
I have given up driving at night and even most daytime driving. I find that trying to take in information from other drivers, road conditions, and directions makes me very anxious, which leads to poor driving.
I forget things unless I write them down, and even then I often read what I wrote and can't remember what it means. Part of the problem is that my printing is smaller (micrographia) and harder to read.
I have seemingly lost the ability to multitask. I used to be great at watching TV and talking to someone at the same time. Now, much of the time I'm not even aware of the second stream of information.
