Welcome, @ceciford. I'm so glad that Rene directed you to this discussion group. Allow me to tag other members who live with primary progressive apraxia of speech (PPAoS), like @ledmison @merrychristmas @101margu @rlu0817 @kholden @kellyejean @elizabethlewis2852 @aoibhin @noteworthy @arbie @rickjudy2012 @justonlyjohn @monbethc and others. They may also have some info about Voice Bank programs.

Ceci, I'm sorry that you are also facing serious depression. Getting a life-changing diagnosis like PPAOS affects not only the physical, but also the mental wellbeing. It's a lot. Did you experience depression before your diangosis?

@colleenyoung gabapentin is not the first line of treating depression . Some research studies questions if it is an antidepressant . It is commonly used for seizure , restless leg syndrome etc
