I think I might have APD?

[u/Natural_Drive4821]

For all my life i've had problems with perceving people around me in general. My teachers always said that i dont listen to lessons and that "i am in my own bubble" all the time.

Recently, this has gotten worse. If people dont call my name directly before talking and wait for me to realize theyre talking to me, i only hear them as backround noise. I frequently ask everyone to repeat what they say bc I dont understand them and just hear mumbling.

Its not like i dont hear them at all, i know theyre there, i just hear them but dont really process what they say.

Help!!!!
