You literally don't know what you're missing, and after suppression starts (when the eye starts "shutting off" when it's drifting, usually in childhood) it's even more subtle & people often mistake the symptoms for things like anxiety

I had a lot of signs that led me to seek a diagnosis, I'm gonna make a somewhat comprehensive list because it's extremely hard to tell if you do have it, and the info online only describes pre-suppression symptoms:

1. I subconsciously tense up in some way when I'm doing any semi-nearby work like writing on a paper, playing videogames

The tensing becomes normalized so you don't notice, but it manifests itself in extremely volatile or high resting heart rate (I get jumps to 120+ sometimes), jaw/"sinus" aches, occasional dizziness (if you haven't started suppressing)

This leads to probably the worst symptom imo: diminished performance the longer you spend on a task

2. Also, when I'm walking around sometimes, especially in open places with tall ceilings, hallways, or crowds, I feel very weird

3. Difficulty tracking moving objects

Losing your place while reading constantly, re-reading

Sensitivity to light

Struggling to tell if you're "in the lines" when driving

Difficulty judging distance between objects

Subtle head tilt leading to neck pain, usually on one side of the neck

Poor coordination/balance/clumsiness

Tilting your head and/or the notebook when writing, trailing upwards or downwards when writing

4. Also, both when I got contacts and when I started Vyvanse, I had difficulty seeing up close and my vision was getting blurry
