literally 😭
In a conversation when I get excited and have complex ideas to share but when I try to say them I have the vocabulary and speaking abilities of a 5 year old.

It says: the shape goes into a shape press that presses the shape into a pressed shape.

Does it have audio for you?

[–] Please_Do_Not@lemm.ee 6 points 3 months ago

Ooohhh. Now I see. Or rather, I hear.

Has anyone found any relief from this from medication or therapy?

Read more books. Seriously. Having a fresh batch of words to draw upon helps me a lot.

Having words is not the problem. I have all the words, the best words, big beautiful words, they're just stored somewhere in a very logical place for them to be that I don't remember and I don't want to use the fresh ones coming in because look at them they're shiny and new don't touch them. (I feel weird using words I just read because I get self-conscious. It doesn't make sense, no.)

I find that shaking my hands frustratedly while repeating the placeholder word at a higher frequency helps people understand ~~what I'm trying to say~~ to talk to me later

You might wanna add the captions in the smaller detail box thing as a lot of people have sound disabled by default
