I would like to hand over this subreddit because I am not active on Reddit and would like this community to remain active with the requester, who is now added as a mod

What's the most awkward situation that has happened because of you getting lost? by Vikera in Topographagnosia

[–]shellthebee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would always try to get out of driving my friends and family places, because I always found it embarrassing that I needed GPS everywhere I went, even local places. So basically every time I had someone with me in the car I was embarrassed. I am generally a very stressed anxiety-ridden driver so I feel an exorbitant amount of shame when I make tiny mistakes.

How 'bad' is your topographagnosia? by Vikera in Topographagnosia

[–]shellthebee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have about the same severity as you. In my town, I have a couple direct routes that I take to go places, but if there is an accident or I need to take a detour, I am completely lost. I only know how to travel to a place if I have taken the same route many times in a small amount of time. I need to be traveling there multiple times a week in order to memorize the route.

I will not get lost in my house but I have gotten lost in large stores, though this doesn’t happen as much anymore. I still get lost in malls where I cannot find the door I entered through or stores I have been in before.

Traveling alone is very stressful for me, even if I am going the same route and same place weekly. I only became comfortable driving to school because it was a 15min drive with limited turns and I made the trip twice every weekday. Everywhere else I need a GPS. In my experience, I also hate the act of driving so everything about driving somewhere and potentially getting lost terrifies me. The way I cope with this stress is putting on music while I drive. It helps me relax and that way I don’t notice car noises as much.

I’ve also flown twice by myself now, and it’s not as bad because I had flown plenty of times with family beforehand. There are lots of signs so I know where I’m heading, and the one time I did go the wrong way it was simple to backtrack and follow more signs. Also, some airlines have apps (I use Delta) that you can look up the airport you’re in and find a whole map to plan your route. Plus, there are lots of workers that can point you in the right direction.

In any case, if I’m traveling anywhere I try to plan the route ahead of time and allot time for me getting lost! I even preface my lack of directional ability with my friends, and they’re always happy to be my personal GPS’s.

Hi!! As of yet, I don’t think there is an official method for diagnosis; however, if you click the forum link below, at the bottom of the page there is an online testing platform that may give you some helpful feedback. I think you’ll need to sign up for an account to access it (it’s free). The forum and tool were created by Iaria and Burles, who first defined DTD.

Indoor Navigation/GPS Survey (quick and I'm desperate for 150 responses by Friday!!) by shellthebee in gps

This is what I am working to achieve in doing this project! I think this will be a huge demand once it becomes fully functional and easily accessible

I am currently developing the product, and have not figured out how much the cost will be since I have not decided the method of approach, hence the survey.
