Weak voice/Voices Change

493 Views 6 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  Trith
Hello this my first time posting after being a lurkers for about 3yrs, I was wondering did anyone have the symptom of having a weak, quite, or very obvious change in voice. If anything I believe my voice is inhibiting me from being social and getting out to do things because of how hard it is to physically speak. Some may say it’s from having social anxiety but I honestly feel really fine being around people. My voice is the only thing that discourages me because I sound so weak and childlike. I am getting a speech therapist very soon I pray they can help, but I’m very curious if anyone else is going through this very thing.

When I started smoking a long time ago, i had that effect where I felt like my voice wasn't mine. I was just listening to it in another way and it felt just like when I listen to my voice in a recording, it sounds weird and it makes me think "do I really sound like that? This is really how people hear me?". It's like my mouth was speaking without my mind speaking at the same time, feeling a bit like my body was speaking on its own without me ordering it, kind of. It's a kind of egg and chicken problem because when I started to feel like that I felt immediately awkward, like people look at and listen to something that they think is me but that info t feel is me, it disrupts the relationship ad feels very awkward, which made me even more self aware and observing my voice even more, and I think its a very natural reaction. Not sure if it is related in any way to what you experience but it reminded me of that. I occasionally still have that sometimes dor just a few seconds and the it's gone.
