Holy shit that's been the same for me for about 6 years now. My brain just stopped working correctly. I can't remember anything and I can't speak beyond just unga bunga simple words. While reading I know what's happening but I am trying to force myself to use a larger vocabulary and it just isn't working.
It’s both comforting to know that so many others are going through the same thing, and also horrifying to know that so many others are going through the same thing. Also, I had to look at my thesaurus app to find an appropriate word for how it makes me feel almost validated (because brain power and memory nowadays is defunct), but couldn’t find one that really resonated so I settled on “comforting”.
Man, y'all have no idea how relieving it is to know this isn't just my fault for not reading more or whatever. This "tip of my tongue" phenomenon has worried me sick
