Speech difficulty concern?

Question

I'm crazy. Lmao alright for quite sometime I (and only I) believe I am having way too much trouble carrying a conversation because my face feels heavy and numb, almost as if my mouth doesn't want to function at all. Parents, friends, and 3 speech therapists say I speak perfectly, but to me personally I feel a ton of stress doing so. How or what is causing this?

Note that I am not shy or quite at all, but I'd rather not talk. It's very tiring. I rush sentences usually because it takes all the breath out of me right away. Is it maybe a respiratory condition, or is it all in my head?

Answer 1

Have you shared your concerns with your medical doctor? Are you taking any medications that have possible side effects? I'd check into that first, then look at a psychosomatic response. Do you feel like you aren't being heard? I'm just asking this stuff for you to figure it out on your own. Good luck.

Answer 2

Try talking to someone worth talking to. I get that way when I don't want to talk to the person. It's quite annoying actually. Idk might be something different for you. ^_^
