In March 2020, she has been diagnosed with ‘foreign accent syndrome’, a rare speech disorder that is caused by brain damage.

“This whole experience has been exhausting and totally overwhelming. It’s not just my accent that has changed. I don’t speak or think in the same way as before this and I can’t construct sentences like I used to,” said Emily.

Since been diagnosed, she has been seeing a speech therapist, but there is no sign of regaining her normal accent back. Doctors even said that the accents might be with her for a long time or forever.

Emily also facing discrimination from people who think she is an immigrant and has taken some time off from work to avoid getting stress.

‘I’m only 31 years old and I am shocked at how much my life has changed in a matter of months,” Emily said. “The hardest thing for me is learning that this voice is ok. I have to learn to accept that it’s ok for me to not be able to get the words out straight away, it’ll come eventually,” added Emily.
