Words are escaping my mouth after years of being on medication
I could really use all the help I can get with this.
So, I have been taking different medicines over the last 11 years or so (I was a sick child growing up). So, down the road, I have started finding it hard to form sentences in the last few years (not sure how long) and talk properly.
Sometimes, when I'm talking, I forget the words I want to say as I am saying it and murmur something else. It is getting frustrating and humiliating, and my anxiety for sure is not helping but making things worse.
It has been getting really hard lately since I started university this week, and I really want to find a way I could go back to my old self. Is there anything I can do to stop talking like a fool and find the right words in the moment I'm saying them out. Sometimes, I even say the incorrect words, even though I am aware of it in my brain that it is not the correct word, but it is like my brain and my mouth operate separately. It is a struggle.
This entire situation really worries me since I am so young, and I'm afraid that I may never go back to talking normally other than looking like a fool while stumbling my words. I have been like this for years now, but I was not aware that it was caused by the numerous medicines I have been taking over years now. But now that I know why this is happening to me. I would love to find a way out of this and find ways to help myself.
I'm looking for anything that is useful and helpful. If you know a practice or a solution that could get me back to talking and forming sentences in a coherent way like a normal person for once. Goddammit
I don't even know what this is called, but if you do.
Please let me know down below so I can get the proper help and read about this condition a bit more.
You are welcome, and thank you..
