Sometimes I type "4" instead of "F". Probably because "four" starts with and f.

Sometimes when hand writing, I spend ~1 second debating on if I want to write a "d" or "b". (which side of the circle do I draw the line)

Others?

I think that may be an early sign of Alzheimers, especially if it's a relatively new thing.

Very rare do I have to stop for a second and think, "which side is this d have to be?" If you write enough I suppose it isn't an issue. In grade school I wrote Z's backwards. I'd have to do it and take a photo. LOL

Then came my dork moment. I learned the Greek alphabet on the computer back in the day (Windows 98se yo!) and so I would write notes in class all in Greek. LMAO! My classmates would look at my paper and say WTH is that?

Anyone play Resident Evil on the Game Cube? In the cemetery there is a grave that says Capcom in Greek letters. I realized that the moment I seen it! LOL Loved the puzzles in that game. I should break out the Dolphin emulator and play on Halloween. Zombies always scare the hell out of me. LOL

That has never happened to me nor anyone I know. Like many posters here you seriously need to have your head examined. Who knows? Unlike what John Connor has your version of mental illness might be treatable and you won't have to sulphur 4rom it n e more. SMH. WTF. LOL. I got 99 problems but the internet denizens turning me into a acronym zombie ain't one.

I hadn't even read this when I posted about you 2 being mentally ill. I didn't know it was the same illness. You both probably suffered from damage to the same part of the brain when you were in the womb and your moms got some virus (cold/flu/whatever) and the virus ate that part of your developing brain. It was a zombie virus I guess. Look I'm just guessing I do that sometimes DON'T JUDGE ME!111(sqrt(1^2)

Speaking of zombies, when I was a lad we had better scary characters like Dracula. Zombies are pussies. They are slow, dimwitted and weak, like todays generation of zombie fans. Dracula was stronger, faster and smarter because the generation that invented him was stronger, faster and smarter. By the time pathetic zombies pose a fictional threat it's post apocalyptia and you have other things to worry about than zombies at that point. Nosferatu>thousands of zombies.

I sometimes mentally confuse 5 with F when writing. It's been going on my whole life and it's just something I deal with, I never accidentally mix them up when writing because I've taught myself to take a split second mental step back when it comes up.

ive always written J backwards first, then fixed it. so, all my Js look like little anchors. that is only when writing tho, while typing i dont confuse many letters or numbers. i do get them out of sequence quite often tho, fingers are either slower or faster than the brain wants them to be.

Sounds like a mild form of dyslexia to me; your filling in the blanks your brain has swapped in parsing a word. You notice it more when you write; an intelligent person gets through school with that problem; I mean to a Ph.D. level. Live with it; it is better than Alzheimer's malady.

f t & d b & p q : Not a fan of those. They're the same damn letter, just flipped.


I can read upside-down pretty well....blessing and a curse.
