    Learning disorder
    I was always had a hard time learning.
    I had real hard time concentrating, words disappear while I'm reading books with white backgrounds, and it's real frustrating. I just recently got glasses

    Can anyone recommend ANYTHING to improve and comprehention?

    I have to tell you that high school was really hard, and college was a lot harder for me, I did great in the arts and sciences, but abstract thoughts on a page just blew me away, eather I'd lose my place on a page and have to start over again, and after I'v read the stuff it made no scents to me at all. HELP!!

    It sounds to me as though you need to see an adult educational specialist who has a strong background in learning disabilities. Alhough I doubt that you have a significant learning disability due to your completion of high school and college.

    Your ability to do well in the arts and sciences is impressive because that includes everything from chemistry to history. You might have more trouble with abstract subjects because they interest you less. Perhaps you suffer from ADHD. Your case is rather vague and I suggest a specialist if you are truly concerned. Some say the echinacea can be helpful
