My video: Can You Be Gifted with Slow Processing Speed?:

I now have slow processing speed. It started at age 35 when I came down with chronic fatigue do to mitochondrial dysfunction. It took me over a decade to learn how to work around this problem. But there are still areas that are almost impossible because people around me don’t understand why I’m not comprehending.

My case is very weird because I have a huge contrast. My working memory, logic and arithmetic, and everything else on a cognitive test is above 95th percentile. But my short term memory and cognitive processing are below 25th percentile.

Having slow processing speed feels more like a curse than a gift

Love your vids and was happy to find your channel but your way of speaking is a little stilted, making your vids come across as lower quality than they are and likely cutting into your viewership. It sounds like you are trying to mimic an announcer-like American accent. You are successfully hiding whatever your native accent is, but it sounds unnatural, like an AI cartoon character with a sort of lisp. You open your mouth too much and over-enunciate, and I feel you might actually get further with whatever your natural accent is unless you go to an accent specialist of some sort to make it sound more natural. It also is a little distracting when I'm trying to hear what you have to say. If you learned the accent yourself it is impressive that you noticed certain things about the American accent, but you go a little overboard.
