I should have chose, Before I was 18 this affected my learning, but not spelling. Always had trouble concentrating, poor memory. I actually started carrying a memory book around with me, but then I forgot where I put it. It was quite a joke.

My memory for spelling even for simple words is getting poorer

Thinking back I remember I had trouble drawing in kindergarten. My best friend could draw really well, or so it seemed. I could not picture/vision detailed items in my mind. I remember having trouble comprehending what I would read and have to read paragraphs 4 times, + or -.

I remember having chest pains. I also had a heart murmur that supposedly went away when I was 20+. I remember paying attention to the music instruments instead of the lyrics because I could not remember them of which I still do today.

A decade ago I stopped going to Tae Kwon Do as I could not get the forms down (memory) and I thought I'll never progress to another belt now. It was embarrassing.
