Has anyone else had issues with this?
Lately, as in the past 6-8 months or so, I've noticed something disturbing about my speech habits...I'll stutter or blur the words together in a sentance as if I'm drunk or my tongue was swollen. Even when I'm not embarressed/not in front of a group.
Example: yesterday I was talking to my sister and couldn't say "Where are the nutrition facts on the bottle?" it was more like "where r tha nusha facts on the bottle" and i couldn't say it correctly. A different time I said "nomenclature" and i could NOT say it correclty. I've found i do this with soft sounds like b's and m's more than k's or t's. It's almost like stutter meets lisp. And w's are terrible "re-wording" was like "wuh wuhring". I've never had a speech problem before. EVER. I used to read out loud ibn class forever because the teachers liked how I read.
It's happening more frequently too, but like, only once a day or something. And of course, the more I think about it, the worse it is. it's always reaaally embarrassing because it's so obvious...i'll try to say a sentence four times before re-wording it.
Could this be ....
a)some kind of 'lack-of-use' thing, because i tend to be quiet most of the time, i'm kind of "forgetting" how to talk (don't talk to fam much
..)
b)some kind of unconscious anxiety thing...maybe unconsciously it's making me nervous to be talking so i'll screw up the word?
c)Some kind of unrelated thing maybe? I woke up yesterday and saw that i had been biting the side of my tongue in my sleep- there were actually freaky molar indentations deep into my tongue? And sometimes it feels like my tongue doesn't "fit" in my mouth, almost. Could this be some weird mouth thing?
