I'm not sure if it's a symptom of a mental disorder but I struggle with right vs left to this day. If someone says "turn left" it takes some mental power for me to decipher. But clockwise / anticlockwise is easy for some reason

Dyslexia / dysgraphia

This. I have mild dyslexia and dysgraphia and I refuse to give driving directions. I will point left, say right, and not even realize it and just confuse the shit out of my driver, lol.

Hell, I refuse to accept directions. My navigator will say left, I'll go right, and they'll look at me funny. If we're in my car, we're using GPS. No exceptions, even if we're just going 3 blocks.

I've found that Driver's Side/ Passenger's Side works for me, though I've never been to somewhere that drives on the driver's side of the road, so that could trip me up.
