Dyscalculia in Adults--difficulty with math

https://www.additudemag.com/dyscalculia-in-adults-symptoms-signs-and-statistics/

  • Frequently late, occasionally missing important events altogether
  • Finds it difficult to remember names
  • Often drives too fast or too slow, or vastly misjudges how long it will take to drive somewhere
  • Needs to write down a phone number immediately to remember it
  • Gets lost easily; misplaces objects around the house frequently
  • Struggles to keep score in games; often loses track of whose turn it is
  • Slow to tell time on an analog clock
  • Poor memory for anything number-related, like dates or facts
A friend said that sounds like the signs of Alzheimer's Disease and I said, well if it is, I've had AD since I was 5 years old, including math anxiety.
