Thanks for the response.
Its hard to say, but it sounds close to me. For me it just feels like a 'badness' or 'inertness' in my lips and perhaps tongue--but it seems seperate from anxiety. Its just, like you said, hard for me to form words or use my natural speaking voice. I can sense it even if Im not talking, but only if I think about it. If Im in a situation around people, it becomes apparent that its going to be difficult. That causes the anxiety to start. When I feel really good, though, it goes away, and sometimes if Im distracted by some project that is taking my attention away from it, it will go away temporarily.> robot,
> i think i might know what you mean although it has happened to me only a couple of times. I think mine is in relation to my anxiety. Its more my lips though, its like i cant feel them sometimes so its hard to form words correctly when this happens, and it usually leads to panic because i get the sensation that i cant control my mouth! (which sounds silly) does this sound anything like yours?
