I play online games using Xbox live, you use a microphone to talk to the people your playing the game with.Problem is im so nervous talking on the mic, i get self concious and find it hard to talk.I feel like my voice will sound creaky or people wont hear or understand me .This isnt the case when im using the keyboard though to chat to people in games.
Im originally from Ireland, and when my family moved over to Canada in 1981 i kinda found it hard to fit in.So i purposely adopted a Canadian sounding accent and when i came home from school would talk with my normal Irish accent.To this day i think it has some bearing on my social phobia.
Is it normal for a person to put an accent on purpose to fit in more?
