Hello! So, I have always joked around with my friends about how when you say a particular word a few times, you start to question if it even is a word, or if it is spelled that way, etc.(think of tubing, or smock as examples) I have noticed in the past few weeks that I (37yr) am having that problem with almost any word that I try to write. We are talking about “and/it/the/Patrick” and whatnot, and it is really making problems for me at work.
Does anyone else have this problem! Does your brain automatically make all words sound fake?
And, yes, all words are made up… I am talking about the ones that currently reside in common speech.
Aphasia or apraxia resultant of a stroke or a head injury in that occured in the past couple months?
Have you had a head injury or possibly a stroke?
I have not had head injuries lately. I have started a new position in my company as of November, but my work area is pretty well regulated air-wise… head injuries I’ve had occurred more than 15y ago. I am just curious if anyone else has had this experience happen suddenly
