dyslexia like symptoms
 
been about 7 days since my last beer because i haven't had the money to buy any but past few days im getting this problem when i read. Like i would read a sentence but some of the words would come up as different words but then i go nah that cant be right and i look back the the sentence and they appear normal again. anyone else get this problem?

Yes, I get that, too. It passes. I think it took a few weeks for me last time around.

Rest hydration and nutrition will help your brain bounce back.. sugar and caffeine not

I had something similar - the words swam all over the page and I found it really hard to focus my eyes and my brain.

It should get better with more sober time.

If it doesn't get better, see your Dr.

Congrats on the week :)

Washing machine head. Well, that's what called it anyway.

It did pass.

I had all KINDS of funky things happen in the first few weeks. This, too, shall pass. :)
