Would this be considered a learning disorder?


I'm 22. I can read perfectly fine. I graduated high school and never was in any type of remedial classes and ever been diagnosed with any type of disorder.

The other day when I was reading something out loud to my boyfriend I noticed I do something very strange. I'll read most of the sentence fine but its as if I skip over words and put in my own words. Not on purpse, its just the way I see the sentence. I thought it was just bc I tend to read fast but even when I slowed down I did the same thing. If I see the word CAT I'll read over it and see the C and the T and I'll throw in the word COT or CUT.

And I noticed that when i do read I have to read over the same sentence or paragraph 2-3 times before I understand what is being said/told to me. This I noticed while still in high school. I had a hell of a time with tests and I always took longer than other people with reading assignments.
Are these traits of a learning disorder or could it be something else?

It does sound like dyslexia. You have obviously struggled and managed to come out all right. You must be a strong, smart person!

honestly sounds like dyslexia

most people do this so it could be just the normal thing that every body does or it could be something like dislexia

you are little dyslexia.

sounds like dyslexia...not fatal but does pose a problem at times...when I am stressed it seems that there are more incidents
