Do I have a mental disorder dealing with directions?

I would like to just start up my car and go. But no I get lost very often im not sure why this happens do I need to read maps more although I never see anyone reading maps they just start up and go they just know where there going. Should I go on an adventure and just get lost and try to find my way back. I have problems with going to more than one place like the mall and then going across town to the zoo. If anyone has any tips it would be appreciated.

    Kya ha ha! This is in no way a disorder. You're just bad at remembering directions.

    The only reason other people are able to just drive without reading a map is because they've driven there so many times (for example, to work or to school) that they just know where to go.

    I suggest saving up to buy a GPS. A GPS hooks to the front window of your car in is like an electronic map. You type in the address of the place you want to go and start driving. The GPS will tell you on the screen or through sound when to turn and which way to turn.
