I HAVE APHASIA - Aphasia Now Statement
Listen (!) to Aphasics
Aphasia Now is run and maintained by aphasic people and we say:
I have difficulty with speaking, understanding, reading and writing.
I can’t always find the words, although I know what I want to say.
I find it hard to concentrate for long.
There may be a delay before I can reply to a question.
Sometimes I get frustrated when people do not give me enough time to say what I want to say or finish my sentence for me.
I have difficulty communicating.
I am not stupid.
