This is really embarrassing.
I noticed that, about three years ago, my voice was SO much higher than I thought it was. I became obsessed about that, and I tried finding ways to make it deeper. Now, it's deeper all right. In fact, whenever I hear myself on recording, I sound COMPLETELY drunk! I sound so thick and nasally, and low and guttural.
So in one way, things didn't work out the way I wanted them to. In another way, I guess I have something to be thankful for, because people keep talking about how soothing my voice is.
It's been about a week since my thoughts have lessened, so that's a first step. However, I want to get rid of my OCD thoughts about this situation completely, which is why I'm a new member on this forum. For some reason, whenever I tell myself that your voice is just a superficial part of yourself, that only works so well...It doesn't work completely. Over the past 3 years, I've faced all sorts of depression and suicidal thoughts, because I thought my voice was SO ugly that nobody wanted to communicate with me, and also because of the effects that my obsession had on my life.
How can I make it stop?
