You might struggle with auditory processing ifâŚ
- Your catchphrase is âwhat?â
- You ask someone to repeat their question then finish processing and respond halfway through theyâre finished repeating it.
- You somewhat processed what someone said but your brain wonât take it.
- You mishear what people say wildly wrong. Like, wildly wrong. Then you process it and it makes wayyyy more sense than whatever you thought someone originally said.
- Default face is a perplexed, confused look.
- You have to deal with rude people who refuse to repeat themselves and act exasperated at the suggestion, than proceed to get angry when you wonât respond to them and/or remember what they just said.
- You can hear a car door open down the street but you canât hear someone talking to you in the same room.
- Youâre constantly seen as a bad listener (which, maybe isnât that far from the truth- but they assume youâre not trying), unfocused (which I tend to be, but itâs unrelated), and so on. Nobody stops to consider that maybe you have processing issues.
- You were tested for hearing issues as a kid because you didnât respond to people or talk much, but every test came back negative and your parents were told you have perfect hearing.
- The idea of talking to two people at once is terrifying beyond imagining.
- Responding to something someone said ages ago, even with a different conversation still going, the topic has moved on, and everyone forgot about it.
