Who else has a significant difference between their verbal and non verbal ability ?
I can only go on online tests. Verbally I score in the upper extreme . Non verbally I score well below average.
I have problems spatially, and with executive functioning and slow processing speed.

Although never diagnosed ,as such, I fit the pattern of what Americans call a learning disability.
When I was at school in the early 60s to mid 70s cognitive problems in the averagely/above averagely intelligent were scarcely considered.

Psychiatry fails to pick up on such things because it fails to take a holistic approach and is heavily focused on DSM/ICD criteria, to the relative exclusion of other things.
