Is the worst because nobody believes you that it’s your brain they just think you’re dumb and can’t remember left from right and tell you to make an L and stuff.
yeah it’s weird the issue isn’t that I can’t deduce right from left. Is more that when queried the brain will immediately and confidently return the wrong answer.
It’s like knowing the difference between a carrot and a cucumber but if someone holds one up and asks you what it is you will confidently answer incorrectly half the time.
So you have to remember that even though you think you know the difference you actually half to take a second to make sure you have the right vegetable. Despite there being zero unsurety about it. Is madness and you sound like a loon describing it is half the problem.
I get that. My intuition often mixes both up, too.
That’s why I trained myself to say “driver-side” and “passenger-side” in my head when left or right come up. To a point where I don’t even have to think about thinking about it. I just visualize which side of car is meant instead of the rather abstract concept of left and right
Whistle.
Tell right from left without thinking about it.
Read a map, unless it’s oriented the way I am facing. My mind will not flip it.
ay you probably have right-left confusion and many people suffer from it!

I always imagine a (local) car, and remember which side the driver sits on
They sit on different sides in different countries though… You are lost on another country
That’s why I explicitly stated local.*
I don’t care which country I’m in and how they are driving there. I obviously visualize cars I grew up with.
E: well, I see how local can be interpreted as exactly the opposite of what I mean… oops

Might not help you; but it helps me
