I tend to have issues coming up with a specific word in a loud environment. It feels like the word is completely missing, even though I just learned the word. It is frustrating.
I was really young diagnosed with ADP. As I got older, I found that I was living my life making sure that everyone knew I was different and I wasn't reliable. After high school, I even went through a process to get disability, however, they told me I was able. I had to seek out advice so I can own my ADP. That is when I found this book that really helped me, "When the Brain can't hear" by Teri James Bellis, PH.D. . It was interesting and easy book to read.
What was interesting about this book was the author, Teri. She was already getting a PHD when she got into an automobile accident and damaged part of her brain. She was a different case of APD, that it has variables and different kinds of APD. The accident lead her to a different field of study to further understand APDs mysteries and she was able to explain it to us.
