Very much so. It is a talent of mine but with my brain being the state it is, I can barely string a sentence together these days. Maintaining a train of thought beyond a couple of sentences is a tall order. Diction & syntax are knackered.

Sounds like impairment of 'word-finding' ability, something I can definitely relate to (& a common complaint amongst depressives). It's like trying to read a dictionary in the dark.
I find this translates into my speech & gives the impression I'm a little slow & hesitant, when in fact I'm struggling desperately to find the right words!
