>tfw it sounds like i'm spitting when I say "ch" "sh" "J" sounds, and I say them out of the side of my mouth.
>tfw it has affected my self esteem my whole life

>I go out of my way to try to think of words that don't have those sounds in them
>when ordering food and they ask what kind of cheese I want, I say "American or "swiss" even though I'd rather have cheddar or pepper jack, because I don't want to have to say them
Some of you probably have it worse than me. At least people can still understand me when I speak.
I tend to talk really fast and slur my words if I'm not paying attention.
I whistle slightly when I say S's and it makes me want to kill myself every day
>tfw talk fast and stutter like a meth head

I made this thread because I just listened to my voice in a recording and suddenly wanted to kill myself ;-;
You're right, I probably should write a little bit of lisp now

I've actually bought an old Symbolics Genera Lisp Machine recently and fixed it up a little. It's great.

I want to cuddle you because I used to have a lisp but grew out of it.

*cuddles with you*
How do you cure sperg voice? I want to just talk in a different accent altogether but it's almost impossible for me
>tfw when I had a really bad stutter as a kid but my parents sent me to a really good speech therapist and now the only remnant of this is my lack of a glottal stop because I slightly over enunciate words
I'm still not super great at talking but whatever. I like when people point out my lack of a glottal stop though, makes for an interesting conversation.
wtf who deleted my post
