I have an expressive disorder me too. Actually I received diagnosis at 5/6 years old and I did a lot of speech therapy during primary school, I've started to educate myself about it later, around 18-19 bc I was really ashamed of my disorder. Right now I haven't issues in understanding, but sometimes I struggle to communicate especially in English, that is my second language. When I speak about familiar topics there isn't huge difficulties, but when I'm out of my confort zone I start to hesitate a little and I look confused. Usually I haven't great issues when I write bc I can take my time and possibly checking the sentence I wrote, I leave out some word rarely. The part that I struggle the most is speaking: I feel like I have to be fluent and rapid al of the time, and I should avoid any grammar mistakes. It has to do more with my insecurity, i perfectly know that in 99% what I say is understandable even though I do some little mistakes, but I'm scared to be judged less worthy or less smart just bc I speak slower than average of people. For me learning a second language was pretty complicated in particular the grammar is tricky to understand and remember but also in the first time I struggled with my limited expressive vocabulary, when I've started to speak effectively my problem was to not be able to keep in mind what I wanted to say, and consequently look really out of place when I speak English. Fortunately I'm overcoming this little obstacles and I can speak effectively English, I'm not fluent like a person who has my same level of English. I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by the expectations that people could have about my speaking in English, bc I know, I don't look like I'm an upper intermediate level

You're more interesting and expressive than a lot people, embrace your uniqueness if you didn't yet. I have a similar experience but I managed to get by and worked hard to compensate for it. I'm now am 40 and I still have a hard time finding words once in a while and I get the momentary pause when something doesn't register (wait, what? oh I got it..) but, I developed my own unique ways to overcome or compensate for this thing. For example I developed a better way to explain complex ideas thorough my own metaphors and have always been a deep thinker, just not a talker. So I've fully embraced my idiosyncrasies. However, I have the lingering thought and I wish I didn't have to struggle so much when I was younger. I knew something was amiss but I always hid it from everyone. Back then there were no youtube support groups like nowadays. I kept on hoping that reading would get me better it did to some extent. Thank you for sharing your story

Can you talk about how having a language disorder affect your ability to make friends in school and what teachers with students that have language disorders should know to help them.
