You can ask for accommodations at your school if you’re in college! They can make sure that numbers are spelled out for you on assignments and tests. I knew a guy who was in his junior year with dyscalculia and he didn’t know that and was just struggling through classes.

How did you get diagnosed at 19? I didn’t know you could get diagnosed with learning disabilities after graduating high school

that's the plan, my major is fairly math-heavy so getting accommodations is high priority right now and i'm in a similar boat but im still a sophomore, it took absolutely bombing a math class that i'd already taken before to be like "okay maybe there's an underlying issue here"
