I do have Aphasia. I suffered from a brain stroke in March 2020. In the beginning I totally did not understand what is going where people are talking to you. There is frustration and unexplained from the beginning and even agressive behaviour happenings to me. As I lived single (after 3 days of a brainstroke) I understood I needed help and went to a hospital. I was very lucky ! After now (Aug. '20) I do know and understand what people talk to me (slightly), but only quick or fluently as a "normal" person. I was hope and follow intensively (2 days/week) logopedics (and still on). The training specifically focus (on myself) to dialogue (spoken) as I can read and write perfectly other people. Only.... the structural phrases loose parts of a complete sentence. (like as sentence/phrase : 1,2,3,4,5,6 (=OK) part 1,2,3...5,...(Misses part/gap to make it to understand complete). My question what form of Aphasia due to I have ?
From what it seems like you might have a mixed form of both. it can happen with a stroke generally on the left side (especially if it was large) likely you would have Wernicke’s from how you describe it
I studied aphasia from a language and linguistics perspective at university. Was trying to explain the Wernicke / Broca difference to someone - unsuccessfully - until I searched TH-cam and came across your video. Crystal clear to them now. Great explanation.
Stephen King's book Duma Key deals in part with the recovery process from aphasia, it introduced me to this subject. He captures well how frustrating it must be.
Part of what helped me with my fathers wernicke aphasia is the cadence and inflection of the speech. if he wants something it sounds different than when he tells a joke or story.
Great content! I understand the difference between broca's aphasia vs wernicke's aphasia, that broca's aphasia is associated with deficits in speech production and wernicke's aphasia is associated with deficits in the cogency of speech. Can you elaborate a bit more on the extent to which a person with wernicke's aphasia understands dialog? Assumably their ability to hear and process sound is intact - does this mean that while what the patient says is incomprehensible, the patient is capable of understanding everything being said by another person?
My late father fell and fractured his skull causing bleeds on the brain.while i hospital he constantly fell making any recovery almost impossible.he had aphasia which was so sad.we dont really know just how much he understood or not.he couldnt eat or drink properly due to the brain not being able to tell him to swallow properly..couldnt walk or do anything similar to dementia..we miss him so much.
I wonder if drawing the object being discussed would help or is that ability gone also. We know it helps children who are not for some reason able to verbalise?
Knowing about things like this makes me glad I just have stuttering, so my only problem is physically moving my mouth to say things (sometimes I think of learning sign language, problem is that most people don't understand sign language - so that won't help much). Imagine not being able to comprehend words, at all. What does that feel like on the inside, can you still think using language? Would you be able to read a math equation, since it's still written in a mathematical language? Brain injuries are scary, I think I would rather die than have something like a stroke or Alzheimer's, having a part of me still perceiving things without being able to grasp what any of them mean.
I got sick from covid I had three strokes two under the ventilator and I have dysarthria. I pulled my hospital records and it says I have expressive aphasia coming from the frontal lobe area on my left hand side of the brain. Can you please do a video on expressive aphasia? Thank you
I’m 34 now. I just learned this word last week. And just before I learned it, I had scheduled performance review with the owner of the company at my job so I can get a raise. I walked it, he asked “hey, so what can I help you with?” Before I knew I thought “fuck my brain is kicking my ass right now” and I can’t get out what I needed to say. I should have immediately said. “Well this is supposed to be my performance review so what can you tell me?” But I didn’t. My mind went blank and I tried to gather my thoughts. I felt stuck. So the meeting ended with “let me look at the numbers and I’ll get back to you.” He can look at those numbers all he wants because my work is always done and on time. But I will bring it up again because I always do for all of the raises I’ve received working in this company over the years.
Has anyone tried to teach a patient with aphasia a new/foreign language? Would this be even more confusing or could it actually help given that they would need to learn new words from scratch rather than try to reconnect or recall the old ones?
Hello i was wondering something about wernickes aphasia but couldn't find the answer to; Can people with wernickes aphasia comprehen sounds? For example can they understand that its a dog when they hear barking noises Or can they understand that it's a friend of theirs if they are shouting at them and so on
Can people have Brocas aphasia without a stroke? I have it since having a stroke like episode but can't complete MRI for doctors to know for certain I had stroke.
Thank you for explaining both of the Aphasia. As I had a stroke two years ago and had my brain open twice. I want to learn more about Aphasia in my city in Victoria BC Canada. Please show more video's as it is great.
I don’t often think before I speak. I usually think while speaking and have to catch up with meaning so the receiver can understand. I often get nice people who can get the gist, but it’s not effective communication. Is this a disorder ?
Hi, I've always felt that I'm half Marilou-Henner-Brain and half Aphasia, absolutely everything is stored somewhere but accessing it is very sporadic and visually dependent. I've been learning sign for the last four months and felt exactly as you were describing when trying to communicate visually with a fluent Deaf person. I'm extremely visual to begin with so the interaction completely overloaded me. I'll do better after gaining some experience, but in that first interaction every detail was just flooding at me to the point that I couldn't process it in the moment.
My girlfriend Lynn has a phase. She understands what I’m saying, but she can only say one maybe two words at a time. So she’s beyond speech therapist. That was done earlier. When I called her name she looks at me. She’s in Assissted Living now. Do you still wanna see me, I ask, she says yeah or uh-huh. You always have to ask her permission before you do something.Or she says don’t. Any suggestions, what I can do. Of course she likes sweets french fries Coke cupcakes etc. Please help me give me some suggestions please
Can somebody please help me in finding which ahasia is in this example🙏:(speaker is responding to "who's running the store now?") I don't know. Yes, the bick, uh , yes i would say that the mick daysis nosis or chpickters. cours, know what that is? I have,uh, token to ingish. They have been toast socially. They'd have been put to mayafa and made palis and uh, my adakal senda you. That is mead ordisdus. That makes anacronous senda.
From what little I've seen of Wernicke's Aphasia, it seems like the sufferer usually makes a meaningful interpretation of what is being asked. They respond quickly to the question and begin speaking and gesturing like the question was very reasonable. Do you find that to be the case, or do they often appear to not comprehend anything?
I have Asphasia. I was taking (2002) METFORMIN & had been on it for 6 yrs before I started having memory issues, sleeping 12-20 hours a day (couldn't keep my eyes opened), seizures, Numbness on my right cheek & lips, became language impaired (expressive-i knew what I wanted to say but could never get the words to come out of my mouth correctly), quilibrium was off, severe swelling in extremities, confused, diarrhea (even drinkibg water), slurred speech, TIAs, & I complained about my brain feeling like it was shrinking. I didn't know what was going on with me, nor did several other doctors I had. Until, I reached out to a nutritionist in another city, to find out why I was gaining so much weight. He ran a slew of tests. I was anemic, D3, & drum roll.. B1-Thiamine deficit. Now when I say deficient, I mean almost 0 amount of B1. So when I hear that Asphasia is caused by brain trauma (this includes motor vehicle accidents, medication induced, stroke, etc.) It took 4 years of not working, some days I was in a vegetative stare of mind. I could go into a lot more detail, but I won't. So FINALLY.. was diagnosed with Asphasia a month ago. It has been a frustrating journey since 2009, when I had to leave my job as a counselor. I have asked my Drs how it was that I taught myself strategies to remember words (I would say the alphabet to myself & once I landed on the letter it started with, the word would usually come to me) g their responses were basically the same-being that I was highly educated (6 college degrees) that I was still smart but needed time to come up with the words to express what I needed to. I knew the Drs weren't young to figure it out-which hind sight 20/20 that chronic diarrhea means I wasn't absorbing the B1 from food or my vitamin.i asked my primary Dr why she never tested for B1 & she said because you don't drink, but failed to remember what happens to patients with chronic diarrhea. So by the time I decided to go to a nutritionist, I was on 17 medications (lets out it this way, if you don't have B1-your brain starts to shut down & so do your organs). My family has started to understand why I'm frustrated, confused, or am at a loss for words. My husband gives me cues & I come up with the word right away. I comprehend most conversations as long as they provide me the facts. After about 3 pieces of information, I go on overload & can't remember the first 3 things that were said to me. I know my boundaries.
If that is Wernicke's then so be it. But what is confusing is I thought Wernicke`s was a receptive aphasia, so difficulty comprehending. I don't see them having difficulty understanding, just their expressing things doesn't match what they are trying to say. But it sounds fluent vs stumbling silence.. Wouldn't that still be an expressive aphasia?
So I think I have brocas. Does this sound right? When I'm stressed or brain fatigued after a couple sever brain injuries this happens. I go from please grab me the red spatula in the kitchen drawer to please spatula kitchen drawer to spatula drawer to red sp-sp-spatula to please sp-sp urgh spoon flip thingy food room. - to red spat to only sign language. I maintain pretty proficient ASL/SEE when it happens. I know I'm losing my words. I'm seeing myself deteriorate. And receptively when fatigue etc sets in I start to hear out the stressed syllables and have to play a big game of mad gab. "Aye O ish as" is what I hear. "Hey yo bitch ass" is what I interpreted the sounds to mean. "Hey do the dishes" is what was actually said to me. Is this an aphasia or simply a sever recall issue (had bad memory recall issues when the injury was new but it's been almost 15 years and has gotten much better). If this is an aphasia would speech therapy help it or is it unnecessary since I maintain ASL I just lose hearing/vocal speech.
Hello, I’m Julie Gonzalez.... I’ve been about 3 years. Most people think I’m crazy. At 1 year, I couldn’t talk zero. Still now, I’m so frustrated because like a cage, my brain is all my remember, all my life.. it’s fine, but when I talk, very frustrating. And I don’t have family, so you can think it’s hard by my self. I’m still hospitals. I want so bad, an apartment. This place, can’t stand. I can take myself, they know but we can’t an apartment, no money too. Anyways, I didn’t know what happen to me. Only barely found out, and about no cure. Too many crying so much because what happen to me. I’m only 47!
Julie don't give up. I was 38 when METFORMIN a diabetic Rx caused my memory loss & many other issues. I just got diagnosed with Asphasia & I'm almost 50. Yes it is very frustrating.. But take your time. I say the alphabet to myself & when I hit the correct letter of the word I need, I remember the word. My family gives me cues too. Keep your chin up, as I understand this frustration.. We feel trapped. For a long time I didn't want to live because I couldn't remember my own family. I thought I had ALZHEIMER'S & didn't want to live the rest of my life that way.
Swoobles oh yes since I was first time, I cannot talk at all! And no money for a tutor, so I’ve learned to 200 animals at the walls, bored lol. Then my name, birthday, ssi you know those 9 numbers.. very hard! I bet you had so hard like mine. I have like 3 easer boards with markers. I notice I’m better to writing, my talk is bad sometimes. So I use my tablet and my white boards. Did you notice also that I’m sleeping and get up, it takes slower, it’s like my brain needs to charge or something. If people to talk to me when I’m just sleeping, I point with my brain.. that I can’t talk now.
Swoobles omg, that’s so sad what you said, i thought that you can’t keep Alzheimer’s at all. But obviously that you can like you do! That’s so awesome! Never enuf, don’t take it .. you do the best you can!
Can one developer aphasia as a result of stress..I really struggle with my speech at times and other times I am ok. My writing and spelling also suffer..
I’ve had a mild traumatic brain injury and have mild aphasia but it gets worse under stress or when I am mentally fatigued. I also get migraines and my aphasia gets worse during those as well.
Hi, if someone has no issues in writing articles or sending long discussion e-mail but once he starts live conversation he can not remember what appropriate words to use to describe what he is trying to say, it is like it takes him a while to figure out the correct word and sentence. Is this a type of aphasia? And how to treat this. Thank you.
I had a stroke 1st of March and I can’t get my words out. My speech therapist canceled and never called back. I need to be practicing. I work with the public, or I did. Can u please reply?
Who Do you start a therapy with someone who has broca Aphasia? My Dad has that but is not with a Logopedy because He has an infection of the eyer nerve. So he had to stop his therapy but we would love to help him
Hi, 7 years late to the party but if anyone sees this, can someone with wernike's but still have good verbal comprehension skills and good writing skills? I have had 2 concussion, on left me with short term memory loss, for a short time. I couldn't remember if I had a concussion and/or broken my nose and kept asking my mom and the doc saying, "so, do I have a concussion then?" Again, I don't remember this. I just know that from what my mom has said. Anyway. Since then, I started to have a hard time with W, L and R sounds but it has since developed into not being able to keep my words in the right order and occasionally muttering words that make sense to me but are actually detached from one another like, "and then they... at the place... where the ice cream is" usually this happens as I give up on trying to talk. It seems to get worse with stress, anxiety and sleep deficet. Random people of the internet, what do you think? Should I go talk to my doctor?
Hi. My husband's therapists are quite baffled because his responsive language has improved so much, yet his processing is really bad. He will not be able to repeat what he has said. We are practicing to get basic sounds. He struggles to understand what we are saying so cant follow instructions very well and he cant read. Would this be Wernicke's Aphasia?
Hi, My Father had a stroke two years ago & lost part of his vision. Communication was fine for the most part but he was later diagnosed with Dementia. He just experienced another stroke last week & has now been diagnosed with Receptive Asphasia & has lost more of his vison. It's very early days but it seems he's aware of his new difficulties. Pointing to his head & saying it's wrong. We have no idea how to help him & any pointers would be a Godsend.
Hi, I am suffering from Broca's Aphasia. I got this from smoking marijuana when I was younger. But I stopped it more than 20 years ago when I was 23 years old. I am still productive but I could have been a General Manager or anything more than what I am today.now had I not have this illness. Any suggestions for effective treatment. I haven't consulted a pathologist but all my symptoms points it to Broca's Aphasia.
You know how posture makes a huge difference? People that made it to Guinness record by speaking six or seven or even more languages. I think we shall compare us to them. It checks the human potential and when it come to that level, then the person probably did something differently? Similar to mathematicians doing complex calculations in their brain. Like they never drink alcohol, some just drink milk.
I'm curious how someone with Aphasia responds to pantomime. I'm thinking of the Pink Panther, Road Runner, and Mr. Bean where the humor is almost entirely visual rather than verbal. Laughter is good medicine ~
Dysphasia is a condition that affects your ability to produce and understand spoken language. My little sister suffered from this after an accident. This made her life difficult. We consult many doctors but did not get results. After using the medicines of Planet Ayurveda, she is fine now.
The irony of this video ( that most will miss) is that the lady has a wood burner (edit: My mistake, as apparently, it's a gas burner) in the room. Smoke pollution (carbon particles that can enter the brain) via the bloodstream, increase the risk of having strokes ( i.e., prolonged exposure to air pollution has many nasty side effects). Strokes cause brain damage which can cause Wernicke's Aphasia and Broca's Aphasia. scholar.google.co.uk/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=smoke+pollution+strokes&btnG=
@@SierraSpeech Ha!, glad to hear it. Apologize for the error, its design looks just like a wood burner. Burning gas (either fossil or biogas) produces far fewer local air pollutants than burning solid fuels. However, in the context of keeping our air clean and reducing C02 emissions, using electricity for heating is the way to go. For example, heat pumps can warm up radiators whilst using comparably low levels of electricity ( electricity which can be generated using renewable energy sources).
the name is [ˈvɛɐ̯nɪkə]. it's not ['vɝnɨki], as she said it. i don't know where anyone would get the idea to pronounce a german final 'e' as [i]. that isn't even a common pronunciation among english names

As discussed, you're an attractive woman (please take this as a mere rational observation), however, there is work to be done if you want to make your content more informative and entertaining. My unsolicited opinion: 1. Make other content such as Videos, Images, and written information to help assist in explaining the concepts. 2. The camera is panned on you the entire time which is not only boring but makes you seem narcissistic 3. Break up the content into segments, use videos that display the different disorders, and maybe provide a explanation of what you will be going through at the start. Thanks for making the world a better place. SO

From what it seems like you might have a mixed form of both. it can happen with a stroke generally on the left side (especially if it was large) likely you would have Wernicke’s from how you describe it

My family has started to understand why I'm frustrated, confused, or am at a loss for words. My husband gives me cues & I come up with the word right away. I comprehend most conversations as long as they provide me the facts. After about 3 pieces of information, I go on overload & can't remember the first 3 things that were said to me. I know my boundaries.
If that is Wernicke's then so be it. But what is confusing is I thought Wernicke`s was a receptive aphasia, so difficulty comprehending. I don't see them having difficulty understanding, just their expressing things doesn't match what they are trying to say. But it sounds fluent vs stumbling silence.. Wouldn't that still be an expressive aphasia?
Hello eugene.. We know what it is..please show us how its like
I have same disorder of aphasia but without any physical problem in my brain like stroke .. what does this mean?
So I think I have brocas. Does this sound right? When I'm stressed or brain fatigued after a couple sever brain injuries this happens.
I go from please grab me the red spatula in the kitchen drawer to please spatula kitchen drawer to spatula drawer to red sp-sp-spatula to please sp-sp urgh spoon flip thingy food room. - to red spat to only sign language. I maintain pretty proficient ASL/SEE when it happens. I know I'm losing my words. I'm seeing myself deteriorate.
And receptively when fatigue etc sets in I start to hear out the stressed syllables and have to play a big game of mad gab.
"Aye O ish as" is what I hear. "Hey yo bitch ass" is what I interpreted the sounds to mean. "Hey do the dishes" is what was actually said to me.
Is this an aphasia or simply a sever recall issue (had bad memory recall issues when the injury was new but it's been almost 15 years and has gotten much better).
If this is an aphasia would speech therapy help it or is it unnecessary since I maintain ASL I just lose hearing/vocal speech.
I need help!!! My husband has a similar speech disorder. Unfortunately, he lives in a small town that has limited speech resources.
Omg my husband does too. I'd like to get him help but I don't know where to start.
Hello, there is online therapy for aphasia, I would do a search for an online speech therapist. I also provide this service. Good luck.

Hello, I’m Julie Gonzalez.... I’ve been about 3 years. Most people think I’m crazy. At 1 year, I couldn’t talk zero. Still now, I’m so frustrated because like a cage, my brain is all my remember, all my life.. it’s fine, but when I talk, very frustrating. And I don’t have family, so you can think it’s hard by my self. I’m still hospitals. I want so bad, an apartment. This place, can’t stand. I can take myself, they know but we can’t an apartment, no money too. Anyways, I didn’t know what happen to me. Only barely found out, and about no cure. Too many crying so much because what happen to me. I’m only 47!
Julie don't give up. I was 38 when METFORMIN a diabetic Rx caused my memory loss & many other issues. I just got diagnosed with Asphasia & I'm almost 50. Yes it is very frustrating.. But take your time. I say the alphabet to myself & when I hit the correct letter of the word I need, I remember the word. My family gives me cues too. Keep your chin up, as I understand this frustration.. We feel trapped. For a long time I didn't want to live because I couldn't remember my own family. I thought I had ALZHEIMER'S & didn't want to live the rest of my life that way.
Swoobles oh yes since I was first time, I cannot talk at all! And no money for a tutor, so I’ve learned to 200 animals at the walls, bored lol. Then my name, birthday, ssi you know those 9 numbers.. very hard! I bet you had so hard like mine. I have like 3 easer boards with markers. I notice I’m better to writing, my talk is bad sometimes. So I use my tablet and my white boards. Did you notice also that I’m sleeping and get up, it takes slower, it’s like my brain needs to charge or something. If people to talk to me when I’m just sleeping, I point with my brain.. that I can’t talk now.
Swoobles omg, that’s so sad what you said, i thought that you can’t keep Alzheimer’s at all. But obviously that you can like you do! That’s so awesome! Never enuf, don’t take it .. you do the best you can!
Hello, do you have a video on conduction aphasia?
Hi! I do not have a video on conduction aphasia. I sure can!
Yes! that'd be amazing, Thank you.
Can one developer aphasia as a result of stress..I really struggle with my speech at times and other times I am ok. My writing and spelling also suffer..
I’ve had a mild traumatic brain injury and have mild aphasia but it gets worse under stress or when I am mentally fatigued. I also get migraines and my aphasia gets worse during those as well.
Stress can effect that. But an actual aphasia you can only have with a degenerative disease or a sudden event like a stroke
Migraines!
Hi, if someone has no issues in writing articles or sending long discussion e-mail but once he starts live conversation he can not remember what appropriate words to use to describe what he is trying to say, it is like it takes him a while to figure out the correct word and sentence. Is this a type of aphasia? And how to treat this. Thank you.
I had a stroke 1st of March and I can’t get my words out. My speech therapist canceled and never called back. I need to be practicing. I work with the public, or I did. Can u please reply?

Hi, 7 years late to the party but if anyone sees this, can someone with wernike's but still have good verbal comprehension skills and good writing skills? I have had 2 concussion, on left me with short term memory loss, for a short time. I couldn't remember if I had a concussion and/or broken my nose and kept asking my mom and the doc saying, "so, do I have a concussion then?" Again, I don't remember this. I just know that from what my mom has said. Anyway. Since then, I started to have a hard time with W, L and R sounds but it has since developed into not being able to keep my words in the right order and occasionally muttering words that make sense to me but are actually detached from one another like, "and then they... at the place... where the ice cream is" usually this happens as I give up on trying to talk. It seems to get worse with stress, anxiety and sleep deficet. Random people of the internet, what do you think? Should I go talk to my doctor?
Hi. My husband's therapists are quite baffled because his responsive language has improved so much, yet his processing is really bad. He will not be able to repeat what he has said. We are practicing to get basic sounds. He struggles to understand what we are saying so cant follow instructions very well and he cant read. Would this be Wernicke's Aphasia?
Yes it is i have the same
Thanks a lot.
Hello, I love your videos. Can you please talk about transcortical sensory aphasia?
Could someone with aphasia learn a new language to help them?

Thank you, Eugene. Beautiful smile btw.
Hi, My Father had a stroke two years ago & lost part of his vision. Communication was fine for the most part but he was later diagnosed with Dementia. He just experienced another stroke last week & has now been diagnosed with Receptive Asphasia & has lost more of his vison. It's very early days but it seems he's aware of his new difficulties. Pointing to his head & saying it's wrong. We have no idea how to help him & any pointers would be a Godsend.
You’re amazing you know I tired from searching about language disorder and you make it so easy for understanding thank you baby ❤️❤️
Lovely compliment, icky familiarity with an assumed stranger, effectively reducing her to nothing. Uncool
Hi, I am suffering from Broca's Aphasia. I got this from smoking marijuana when I was younger. But I stopped it more than 20 years ago when I was 23 years old. I am still productive but I could have been a General Manager or anything more than what I am today.now had I not have this illness. Any suggestions for effective treatment. I haven't consulted a pathologist but all my symptoms points it to Broca's Aphasia.
I see people in the comments :|
"Thank you, I have an exam tomorrow"
While I'm trying my best to write this comment to make sense
You know how posture makes a huge difference? People that made it to Guinness record by speaking six or seven or even more languages. I think we shall compare us to them. It checks the human potential and when it come to that level, then the person probably did something differently? Similar to mathematicians doing complex calculations in their brain. Like they never drink alcohol, some just drink milk.
I'm curious how someone with Aphasia responds to pantomime. I'm thinking of the Pink Panther, Road Runner, and Mr. Bean where the humor is almost entirely visual rather than verbal. Laughter is good medicine ~
Dysphasia is a condition that affects your ability to produce and understand spoken language. My little sister suffered from this after an accident. This made her life difficult. We consult many doctors but did not get results. After using the medicines of Planet Ayurveda, she is fine now.
What is ayuverda pls?
TH-cam - “The Danny O’Keefe story”
The irony of this video ( that most will miss) is that the lady has a wood burner (edit: My mistake, as apparently, it's a gas burner) in the room. Smoke pollution (carbon particles that can enter the brain) via the bloodstream, increase the risk of having strokes ( i.e., prolonged exposure to air pollution has many nasty side effects). Strokes cause brain damage which can cause Wernicke's Aphasia and Broca's Aphasia. scholar.google.co.uk/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=smoke+pollution+strokes&btnG=
Fascinating take-away! It is a gas fireplace.
@@SierraSpeech Ha!, glad to hear it. Apologize for the error, its design looks just like a wood burner. Burning gas (either fossil or biogas) produces far fewer local air pollutants than burning solid fuels. However, in the context of keeping our air clean and reducing C02 emissions, using electricity for heating is the way to go. For example, heat pumps can warm up radiators whilst using comparably low levels of electricity ( electricity which can be generated using renewable energy sources).
We have radiant heat floors and solar panels.

TH-cam- “The Danny story”
your audio is too low, even at my max settings its hard to hear
shes cute
Pickles
Wernacke's is a word salad.
She looks a little like Dakota Johnson
you didn't even try to pronounce wernicke correctly
Its named after a German Neurologist who first described it. The W is pronounced like a V, her pronunciation is correct
the name is [ˈvɛɐ̯nɪkə]. it's not ['vɝnɨki], as she said it. i don't know where anyone would get the idea to pronounce a german final 'e' as [i]. that isn't even a common pronunciation among english names
@@herisruns You are spot on! My first language is English, therefore, I have an English accent.
people dont think in language... what a pathetic description
Using God's name in vain was very offensive.
Bro, this is serious. People are getting brain injuries and you're worried about religion? My God
@@Frost3z Not worried, just hate hearing it. It's situations in life like this that I go to Him for comfort and guidance. Slingin' His Holy name hurts my heart (kinda like someone calling your mom names and giving her a hard time). Hope you understand : )
As discussed, you're an attractive woman (please take this as a mere rational observation), however, there is work to be done if you want to make your content more informative and entertaining.
My unsolicited opinion:
1. Make other content such as Videos, Images, and written information to help assist in explaining the concepts.
2. The camera is panned on you the entire time which is not only boring but makes you seem narcissistic
3. Break up the content into segments, use videos that display the different disorders, and maybe provide a explanation of what you will be going through at the start.
Thanks for making the world a better place.
