Anomic aphasia SFA session 1

Session 1 with anomic aphasic using SFA

[@peterrussell9473]

Interesting. I lost the word Orange for the food item but not for the colour too - just like this with my brain issue.

[@happywaseem8790]

I am not qualified to say this, but I think you maybe having mild anomic aphasia

[@Jiffybob47]

Oh wow. I can never think of examples or remember the things this therapist is asking for.

[@Atah714]

#brucewillis brought me here... Just learning about this condition. Interesting, prayers for all

[@Ajay_patel_2438]

Nice Explanation

[@SEASCAT]

Thank goodness, I do believe I found the diagnosis to explain my student. She is trying so hard to please her dad who has set unrealistic expectations for her.... And to you idiots below- this is true. My student gets so angry and impatient with herself...... and with me when I'm not patient with her. Now- to get her father to accept it, get her a therapist to deal with her true limitations and set some realistic goals for herself.

[@bluemountain555]

Is Anomic Aphasia (difficulty in finding the words to use) a subset of Broca's Aphasia?

[@AndYouWillBeWithMe]

of Wernicke's, if I'm not mistaken

[@CabbatheHot]

Broca's Aphasia deals with language production and Wernicke's with perception. So to answer your question one would have to know if finding words deals with emitting or comprehending words/meaning and thats not easy to distinguish. And I'm sure in a few years our terminology and categorization will have changed again anyways..

[@a30694]

No, anomic is a sensory aphasia or a fluent aphasia. You see she has no trouble speaking. She only has problem finding the right word for it. Broca is a motor aphasia. The answer is well formed in their brain. They have a trouble getting the words out.

[@TheGwopboyzprodigy]

Ananya Hait Some people like myself often say i can’t find the word to find a substitute word or to buy time to see if i can say it. I know exactly what i want to say when it triggers but I literally cannot put it to words. I’m able to try which seems rare but it usually ends up straining my brain and making it feel weird (So I usually stop).

[@Iminoamino]

Its neither broca nor wernickes exactly, its nominal aphasia which is quite mild here wernickes is very severe of this

[@gaming4K]

What if it happens when you are a language learner? English is my second language and sometimes i remember the name for things in english first and i have to find the word for it in my own language. 😅 First i was like how she doesn't know that's an orange but i remembered it's the same thing like for us who are learning languages. 🤔

[@craftingmac6162]

Entirely different. Words in your native tongue are wired into your brain at a very young age. It becomes second nature. It is completely expected to forget words while learning a new language, because you don't have the same learning ability you did when you were a child.

extra credit: name a word that rhymes with it!!

[@bellytripper-nh8ox]

THERE IS **NO** SUCH WORD AS **ANOMIC**

[@barberaTP]

it´s a simulation, rigth?

[@nihalmuniah]

lol no. this is true

[@deedeealltheway1]

@@nihalmuniah yes it is. You can tell by the comical way of how she writes down what was being told.

[@mtvernonmatt]

Yes. It was a simulation for a grad school class. I was there for it. They are both neurotypical

[@nicksmixmusicandmore8126]

She didn't write a word that whole time...

[@webcountess]

Exactly!

[@gonsodany]

"do you know the name of this objetct?" "no" "what does it look like?" "Hmmm I is orange" FACEPALMMM

[@shadyahcole3650]

Golden Freddy This is extremely interesting from a psycholinguistic point of view because it implies that adjectives and nouns are stored in separate places in the brain. I saw a video of an anomic patient holding a comb and he was saying, “I don't know what you call it, but you comb your hair with it.” Nouns and verbs are probably stored in different locations too.

[@cfalcon0754]

I know. It is pretty ironic.

[@youshouldseethis.6678]

This is horrible

[@loxleymoon]

If you don't think this was acted out.. lmao.. ouuf... Seems like she forgot how to write too!

[@samaelsevanhadar]

Surprise: Aphasia can also affect writing skills. This is no joke. You know that feeling when you desperately try to find the right words sometimes until it suddenly pops up? Imagine having that ALL THE TIME. As a condition. And the "word pop-up moment" never comes without help from someone else. Imagine how horrible that would feel. And that's not even the worst kind of aphasia imho.

[@Lenawire]

This is not funny at all. Anomic aphasia is a mild type of aphasia but it still affects the individual's speaking and writing. Their speech is typically fluent with no grammatic or syntactic mistakes but they have difficulty with word retrieval and item naming. However, they can find a way to work around their difficulties. Individuals with Broca's or Wernicke's aphasia are in a more difficult position. Individuals with Broca's aphasia may understand what it is being said to them but they have difficulty responding.

[@yesiownfrodo]

WAY too many words for a person who has had a stroke to listen to. You speak MUCH too fast and sentences are too long. A real person with aphasia would not be able to do this. PS, I am a stroke survivor.
