Has anyone developed Dyslexia without injury/stroke ect?
Post Body

Okay, I have no idea if this is the right subreddit. I am 19f and I have Autism.

Lately I have noticed drastic changes in my ability to read, write even speaking and listening. I was an avid reader in school. And one of my proudest accomplishments was my ability to read the entire harry potter series in under a week.

Now I can barely read a page. I mix up my letters and I cant cven remember my lefts and rights, doing the hand thing doesnt help because sometimes I forget which way the L goes. I will be typing a message and put the completely wrong letters in as if I think they belong in the word.

I have begun to stumble over my words, my numbers. Everything all gets jumbled up. I started trying to read a book just now and although the words are there, its like they arent words. They jumble and mess up. Its confusing. People keep joking lately that I am dyslexic and I am not...? But it also feels like I am almost becoming dyslexic? It also feels like dyslexia isnt the right thing. I am overall just declining in my capacity to communicate and it fluctuates often. Some days I cant remember the simplest words and how to spell them.

If its not a neurodivergent thing I am sorry. But has anyone else ever experienced this? If not, can someone help point me to where I need to go to ask about it? Its so confusing

Theses issues have begun before covid it is just that they are drastically worsening now.

Yeah, hobestly thee burnout would make sense. I left home at 15 so I have been doing adulting for quite a few years now. There hasnt been too much change recently though. Thankyou

It is possible but imo I am actually much less stressed than what I used to be.

I have had an MRI rather recently due to (still) issues with my vision (or lack thereof). There was nothing they could find that was wrong in the scans. I had spoken to him about all of the above and also general hand eye coordination issues but he didnt do too much helpful or give any insight

Perhaps. I had covid only once (dont go out enough to be near people) but there is the possibility

Its not just the reading. In general I was always really really good at maths and english and I was in a special class. I was always articulate and although, yes, I was in a really messed up environment up until I moved out, there was no semblance of the issues that are unfolding. I attempt to practise reading, writing, maths and talking so its not something I "forget" how to do. It doesnt process. Not like it used to

I havent had a stroke or any kind of injury and I cant find any other causes :( I did find that in my googling though
