Welcome to the wonderful world of SLD. Yes, I have the same issue too. If it really bothers you...https://smile.amazon.com/Blue-Toobaloo-Auditory-Feedback-Phone/dp/B00R56CJ0Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1522864052&sr=8-1&keywords=speech+phone
Hi! Thank you very much for responding! I've never used a watch with GPS, so I don't know how do they work: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2/176-0434454-7433539?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=gps+watch
What type of GPS do you use? A Garmin for cars? A smartphone with GPS? Do you have a picture of your diagrams? It sounds interesting.
What about using a compass?: http://www.amazon.com/Cammenga-Phosphorescent-Clam-Lensatic-Compass/dp/B0016SRA4Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1457280817&sr=8-1&keywords=compass++Cammenga
I was exactly the same as /u/Ismith946, diagnosed in university, never picked up through school. But looking back it was pretty obvious all the signs were there, I just had the "skills" in place to cope with mainstream education. It was only when the education requirements increased that I struggled and was unable to cope.
Reading the [Dyslexic Advantage] (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dyslexic-Advantage-Unlocking-Hidden-Potential/dp/1848506392) has helped me in numerous ways, most importantly, dyslexia really is only a disability in modern education, thinking differently is possibly an advantageous mutation. It also helped explain how the brain is different in dyslexics and this in turn helped me have a starting point in how I may struggle and what I can do to help myself.
I also have the theory that school education is very repetitive, you're there 6hrs+ a day doing the same things, reading, writing, and as you grow older you do these things less. Think about your handwriting after having the summer off when you were younger! So by not doing these repetitive things you're having to make up ground to get back to what you class as normal.
If you're worried and struggling, do homework, practice your left and rights ( I still always look at my hands, left hand makes an L with thumb outstretched), practice writing, do a bit of reading, build it up.
Don't worry though, you'll get there with a bit of time and patience.
I had some help from about 15 but it wasn't until I discovered this book that I really understood dyslexia.

But, you want to try and see a professional if you can. "Dyslexia" is quite the umbrella term and knowing (through the tests) exactly what aspects of your personality are affected really helps.

Cpen reader is a good option. Any scan word can be defined through the cpen dictionary. The pen can be used to read book by scanning individual lines, similar to reading with a finger.
I would recommend that you get something like [this] (http://www.amazon.co.uk/ACE-Spelling-Dictionary-David-Moseley/dp/1855034786) if he has trouble spelling. I haven't actually used one, only heard about it not long ago.
Here's a video explaining a bit how it's used

I used the reading rules too but they are a little stiff for me.

Spatial and memory issues are often co-morbid with dyslexia and dyspraxia. Some researchers believe this is related to stunted growth of myelin sheaths over neurons during infant brain development--this book on dyspraxia goes into the mechanics of that while still being reader-friendly.
I am not dyslexic but words do move around on the page when I'm very tired. Words and sentences will move closer to me or further back and then drift into other rows, forming nonsense phrases and making me think I'm hallucinating. It may be an exhaustion or stress issue, or even related to my astigmatism.
