Hello thought I would share one of my problems that I get quite a lot. I’m sure this must happen to other people? Yesterday, mother and stepdad pop round. We put the world to rights generally. So there I am, spouting off and giving my two penneth; when all of a sudden I feel like my mouth is in slow motion. My tongue was useless and I’m blabbing. Its hard to describe but that’s what happens. It’s as if I had a mouth full of porridge and I’m trying to talk at the same time? It happens quite a lot. Sometimes I can’t answer the phone when it’s bad as they can’t understand me the other end
if my brother gets in touch, he’s got used to texting first to see if I can talk ( bless him). I’m confident if I’m out with someone else, they can do the talking
but on days I’m alone and it’s bad, I won’t go anywhere I need to talk…my allotment is good, nice and quiet. I’m not sure if there’s anything I can do to help myself, I’m not messing about with testing or whatever they do, I’m having enough of those
but. I’d be interested to know if anyone else has this problem too. Xx
Hello Beverly You’ve come to the right place for a consultation on gobbledygook Most days I manage to talk in this new language lol…the more stressed I get about it the worse it becomes. I’m always with someone when I go out now so it’s not too much of an issue because they can take over. If I’m on the phone and it happens, I simply say I have ms and this is what can happen sometimes for me and just bear with me please. So far, I’ve always had polite/helpful responses. Take care, Noreen
That’s great to hear, Thankyou. I usually find that if I’m on the phone and gobbledygook kicks in, I can’t even explain myself : s it’s given me food for thought. I will have to come up with something to help myself when that happens. Hey! Maybe I could record the explanation on my mobile, and play it when needed? Hmmm xx
You take a deep breath and start all over again…I think that’s a song
Well I did it, I’m trying to build up my confidence I suppose. Tonight the landlady phoned and the gobbledygook started. I took a breath and repeated what I said. Yay! At least I know it works now xxthanksxx
