X users weighed in:
Oh man this gave me a lump on my throat. We’re around the same age and I have the same condition but still unsure what causes it. A scan showed that my brain was shrinking 😏 and when I asked questions, no tangible answers were received (Government hospital)

Ah KayBee, l wish l could give you a hug.
I can sympathize, l developed a speech impediment through childhood trauma – when l was told my voice is too soft, people making comments like “why do you speak like that?!”. It got worse when l would be intentionally ignored.

Earlier he shed light on how his memory loss affects him. He mentioned that he once took an Uber home, and later realised that he forgot his car at the airport.
Left the airport in an Uber only to find out I actually forgot my car at the airport. My partial loss of memory has gotten to a critical stage, embarrassing.
