If you have trouble navigating, get lost easily, or don't know right from left, you've probably identified yourself as "directionally challenged" a time or two. Don't worry, you're not alone! The American Psychological Association has even suggested that being directionally challenged is a psychological disorder that causes people to lack an internal compass! Here are just a few of the many struggles that directionally challenged people face!

1. You have to GPS yourself everywhere.

Even if you're only driving a couple of miles from one place to another in the town that you live in, your GPS is the only thing getting you there in a timely fashion.

2. When your GPS is wrong, a panic attack always follows.

You thought your GPS was a lifesaver until that time you "arrived at your destination," and it was an empty field.

3. Traffic circles are your worst enemy.

"You would be lost if I turned you around in a circle." Heard that one before? It's pretty accurate when it comes to traffic circles.

4. You have to check your hands to know right from left.

There's nothing quite the same as looking like a 4-year-old when someone tells you to do something involving left or right.

5. You always take the scenic route.

And it's always by accident. If it weren't for the fact that it usually takes longer, this would be a perk.

6. East, west, north, and south are all words that mean nothing to you.

Having someone tell you to go north west always ends in, "where's that?".... or a Kardashian/West joke.

7. The embarrassment of not knowing how to give directions to someone from out of town.

When someone that isn't from your town asks you for directions, you should know what to say, right? Wrong. You can either attempt (and likely fail) to give directions, or admit defeat.

8. When someone asks you to navigate, and you know you're about to disappoint them.

Forever having to pitch in extra gas money because you added another 30 miles to your trip.

9. Trying to find your car in a full parking lot.

Thank the Lord for the panic button.

10. Receiving this look from your passenger when you use your GPS to get to a nearby place.

"Well, I'm going to need directions from someone, so who's it going to be? You or Siri?"

11. Lowering the volume on your radio every time you get lost.

Taylor Swift, your music is great for car jam sessions, and I'ma let you finish, but I'm lost.

12. Knowing where you are feels like the greatest accomplishment.

When you can confidently get somewhere without the help of your GPS, it feels like you finally have your life together.

Being directionally challenged might cost us a little more in gas money, add some unneeded stress to our lives, make us late for everything and cause us to receive some judgmental looks, but at least we are able to stop and smell the roses while accidentally driving on all of the scenic routes! What challenges do you face as someone who's directionally challenged?
