Does anyone else trace things with their eyes?
Often, mainly when I'm driving, if I see a sign, billboard, or pretty much any simple sentence, phrase, or word, I have to trace it with my eyes. Generally in the same way you would write it out, but it must be forwards and backwards. I also tend to do this with general shapes and if it gets really bad, I have to do it to real objects. I've found that if I don't do this, it feels as if something is desperately "going to go wrong" or like something is pounding in my head. I'm not sure what to do about this but it has greatly affected my ability to communicate in certain instances because I absolutely had to trace the words I saw. Mainly, it's just a huge pain. Does anyone else do this or something similar to it?
