I find that I become tongue tied too particularly towards the end of the day, but I think it's the combination of the medication plus fatigue. If I need to speak, which unfortunately is too often, I have to slow my thinking down carefully, and rehearse what I have to say prior to spitting it out. People look at me like I'm not interested or like I've become nim-witted, but this is better better than sounding like a twit.

The other thing that happens to me is I become more and more softspoken, which makes it diffult to speak in public places. I've noticed that noise always has its way of timing its self with my conversation so the other people can't hear a word I have to say. I find myself repeating my conversation sometimes several times before they understand me. This really is troublesome and frustrating particularly in a restaurant where you want to talk to someone you haven't seen in ages.
