I think so. I might be a bit atypical in this, but there is a thing, I just press the button and that’s it, I flood the conversation in any nonsense direction, make jokes, tell a story for the hundred time, and I can watch myself doing it and I can’t manage to stop. Then at the end I’m reminded of what I wanted to do and I didn’t do it. If I have a gap, I manage to fill it with whatever. I can write without thinking at all. It’s very strange.The brain is so tricky though, could be that dissociation adapts as we progress....
I have complex PTSD and I have the same symptoms. Especially when stressed but also when not stressed. And I know what you mean by difficulties pronouncing basic words. Additionally I had problems with syntax. And I am a language teacher......Yeah, figured stress may be a culprit. Just noticing that sometimes pronouncing basic words causes trouble which I find unnerving, but do notice it is worse when stressed (but also present when not stressed). But also found that PTSD affects brain areas connected with memory and the like so maybe that is just affected a bit as well.
Yup. When I'm stressed or triggered, I fumble all over my words. It's the brains way of conserving energy and thinking power for escaping. If I am caught up in studying my surroundings, I don't say much at all and if I'm forced to speak, it comes out disjointed and rudimentary.Hi guys, does anyone here experience difficulties pronouncing/finding words post-PTSD? I've noticed in the last few months I have more troubles finding/pronouncing words and it's a thing that is really annoying me because it seems harder to even form sentences at times. I think it may be due to pretty high stress levels I've been experiencing post PTSD for a year now. Can anyone relate?
I can kinda relate to that those troubles. There's time when I can't remember a word or what some things is called, some people are more visual. How come you are feeling alot of stress? It's just the PTSD or something else? And I would say sometimes PTSD is hard to put in to words all of it what going on in side. Pluse if it's about the PTSD it's self and riu don't know how the person will respond then that can make it more. Here and in other PTSD support groups. I know I can share my truama and get support. And hear other people truama so I can offer support.Hi guys, does anyone here experience difficulties pronouncing/finding words post-PTSD?

That's word finding difficulties...... Some just hide it by being quiet. For some it turns into more fears or agoraphobia where they avoid people because they feel so self conscious and embarrassed they cant deal with that....I sound like a record player just skipping over and over and over. I get the word "I" or maybe "I just" out of my mouth and then it just goes on repeat, "I....I......I.......I...."
I've thought about this a little bit more. It's not that I can't find the words so much as i just can't get my mouth to speak them. My mouth/body simply stops cooperating with my mind. I'll start speaking and the first word or two comes out and then it's like my system goes into complete overload on its own and those first few words just keep repeating. When finally manage to stop, pause a moment, and try again it's like I have to physically force the sentence out. Almost aggressively, like I'm spitting it out. Sometimes in a very halted manner. Sometimes I try to say the sentence super fast before my body takes over and stops it. I think that it generallyThat's word finding difficulties...... Some just hide it by being quiet.
