>>36629096I was diagnosed as a teen and it didn't really start impairing me until adulthood. I can even feel my speech getting worse. I constantly swap consonant sounds between words and I have a hard time with "r" sounds. I stutter at least 3 times every time I start a sentence and this started happening only a few years ago.
>>36630010this might actually be neurological and not psychological, maybe its worth seeing a doctor anon and mentioning stuff like the speech and losing track of conversations
>>36630044I haven't had a physical in a while so I'm kind of scared what they could find. I don't want to go to an assisted living home.
>>36630964i doubt you would get put to pasture, there might be a pretty straightforward fix if you get a good doc anon, try and work up the courage
>>36630010one of my friends had similar stuff except also headaches and they were also scared to go to the doctor and it turned out they had a lump in their brain and they had to get it surgically removed
