(50F) Sudden onset of regularly occurring word and letter reversal…
50F, 5’8” and 175 pounds. Current diagnoses are bipolar with mixed features, BPD, OCD, PTST, anxiety, interstitial cystitis, surgical menopause (total hysterectomy at 37), hypertension, and fibromyalgia. Current medications: Wellbutrin SR 300mg (I was recently switched to this from Trintellix and Abilify), Buspar 7.5mg 3x daily, gabapentin 300mg 3x daily, estradiol 1mg, Zanaflex 4mg 2x daily, and hydrochlorothiazide 25mg 2x daily.
As the title states, I have suddenly started experiencing both word and letter reversal in my writing. I have also found myself sometimes typing a completely different word than what was intended. I don’t mean something like “possible” instead of “possibility.” Rather, it’s things like me meaning to type “phone” and typing “car” instead. I am also finding myself completely forgetting to type out words that I felt sure I had included, but they’re missing when I read over what I wrote.
I have a degree in English, and I used to be an English teacher. Mistakes in my writing is not the norm for me. The first few times it happened, I thought it was odd, but now that it is occurring regularly, I would like to know if it’s something I should worry about.
