The name of Aphasia has given you the desire for creative, artistic or musical expression in an original way. You enjoy new ideas and new projects, but have difficulty in following through if once you find the novelty of an activity has worn off. You strive to be different and have the self-confidence to implement your ideas because you have the perseverance necessary to see something through, despite obstacles. As your independence and freedom are very important, you will seldom tolerate limitations. With increased familiarity you are inclined to speak your mind in a forthright, sometimes argumentative manner which creates annoyance and often hard feelings. Seldom planning ahead, you undertake projects and work out the details as circumstances arise. Although you are congenial in the early stages of friendships, it is not easy for you to maintain relaxed, harmonious relationships because, through increasing familiarity, you are inclined to lack patience, to be intolerant, and to speak your mind in a frank, argumentative, and occasionally hurtful manner. You do not depend on others for encouragement, but you respond to appreciation and enjoy being the centre of attention. In an argument, you usually emerge victor, but at a cost. At times when your expressive urges seem to be bottled up, you experience stress and react to others critically instead of handling situations in a relaxed, cheerful manner.
