Thanks I've found this helpful. Having my son diagnosed with low Processing Speed (low average) and reading these posts of other parents describing low processing speed makes me wonder if perhaps I have low processing speed as well.
The struggle I've always had that make me think this is I can't "think on my feet" very well. I'd make a terrible stand up comic. I'm always 5 minutes behind on conversations particularly arguments/discussion with more than one person involved. It's not that I don't get what they are saying right away but that by the time I figured out how to respond the conversation has already moved on. And because I'm still thinking about how to respond I'm not 100% listening to the direction the conversation is taking. My observation is my son is the same way and I think this has really gotten in his way socially in the past.
