How do I improve the sound of my voice?

Question

I heard myself on tape and hate the way I sound. What type of doctor or so should I see to fix my speech problem. I sound normal to me but know I sound bad on tape or the phone to others.

Answer 1

Hey, everyones voices sounds bad to themselves when they listen to a recording. Even me when I hear a recording of my voice I think "urgh my voice sounds horrible, do I really sound like that when I speak".  

Answer 2

Its perfectly normal to sound bad on tape or phone etc. I know, your voice sounds a bit different to what you sound. That happens to me.. i sound like i have a blocked nose or something when i record my voice and when i hear myself talk, i sound fine.

Umm, ive only heard of a speech therapist that can help correct the way you talk - but usually for people who can't talk at all, etc.
