Hello, Anon
Than you for posting.
For the benefit of our readers, Aphasia is an impairment of language, affecting the production or comprehension of speech and the ability to read or write. Aphasia is always due to an injury to the brain, like a stroke.
Has this gotten worse over time or suddenly? Have you discussed this with your doctor? I would recommend doing so to be sure nothing else is going on. A speech therapists who specialize in cognitive testing and therapy may be helpful. Your doctor may also suggest this.
