    “To elaborate, is there a specific cause of the disability (autism would be an example)”

    This is a good question. Honestly I don’t even know the cause of it. I have a siblings who seem fine. My parents were ok as well. There’s just something different about me that makes me like this.

    “and does it affect specific aspects of your life (reading or writing or both, etc…)?”

    Reading is off the table. It takes me forever for read anything and my spelling also sucks. I always forget how things are spelt. I have a hard time following instructions. I’ve lost many jobs due to this.
