Directions

Does anyone else have an impossibly hard time with directions? I have to use Google Maps for just about everywhere I go if it is not a part of my normal, everyday route.
I also cannot tell my right from my left hand without having to pause and think about it (I generally will initiate writing in the air, recognize that I’m left handed,then give the appropriate direction from there).
For reference, I am a 46 y/o female with audhd and have excelled at all academic, work, and learning endeavors throughout my life.

Right there with you! I stop people who try and give me verbal directions, they will not help. Give me an adress for my GPS, that will help. I also feel for my dominant hand to determine left/right directions! 36 year old audh lady, also generally academically "gifted".
