Well, my brain seems to be affected by it according to that test (difference score of 11) if I interpret the scale correctly
But well, I also got autism and quite a few other mental conditions and learned all my life to cope quite well with all my disabilities; that's why I specifically outsource direction question to a visualization that make the answer more tangible for me than listening to my intuition.
But well, what works for some doesn't necessarily work for all. And probably my other conditions have some influence on it as well. We're all different, after all; even if sharing a few traits.
yeah I have tried driver/passenger in the past and still got it wrong so i just point and tell people to ignore whatever i say and follow my finger when driving which is the only time it's usually critical. also my partner knows if I say 'real left' that i have double or triple checked myself. like you say you learn to cope!
it sucked in the past when I didn't know about it and people would ask me for directions and then later realize i flipped something on them
