I have a very loud voice naturally. achilles heel. i hate it. i have to constantly monitor and think about it, for ever word i say. been doing this all my life. its actually quite a drain / strain. I just want to be able to talk without having to think about it first. And whn i get excites or even a tinsy bit cross, is when i forget to control it and then the damage is done :
i'm at a party. had a glass of wine. and i start telling someone "oh when we were in ibiza, it so SOOO beautiful,and we sat there drinking wine.... la la la" and suddenly dh will whisper "darling you're shouting".
But recently even me dh regularly says 'obs you're shouting' and i don't realise that i am. and yesterday a woman at work accused me of shouting at her. even though i thought i was just talking loudly.
not good. a while ago, due to a different reason, i had my hearing tested. totally normal. actually very good acute hearing, i can hear a mobile vibrating, before it rings, when i'm in the garden and my dh's phone is upstairs in the bedroom.
but this is all abit miserable. what do i do ?
