I have a hard time processing what people say and I have a hard time processing what I read. For example when I read at school, I read things slower than other people and I have to break up my reading into smaller parts. In math I also have word problems explained differently so that I can understand it. I get really overwhelmed by large paragraphs or lots of things I have to remember, while reading. I like to use high lighters in math. Following instructions is hard for me too. I usually have to have things explained multiple times and in multiple ways before I understand it. It took me forever to learn long multiplication and long division. Learning how to tell time was also tricky for me.
During conversations I have a hard time answering questions that require a lot of detail or have multiple questions in the question. I also sometimes forget what the original question was if there is multiple questions in it. I usually don't have long responses. I also sometimes forget what I am going to say when I am overwhelmed. I have issues with my tone too. There is so much to think about during conversations. I usually don't do so good during them. Some people are very understanding though. Some people know I have autism and are ok with it
