You either die a hero or live long enough to become Mythic..
Let me be clear here, I do kinda have a speech impediment. You won't see it my typing or casual conversation(mostly), however if I have to explain something or give a speech. It's like my mind shuts off completely. I can't find the right words or how to say them, even if I know exactly what to say my mouth won't do what I want it to. It's extremely frustrating to try to teach someone something when I can't even speak.

Is there any ways to fix this that don't include drugs or therapy? Just some simple exercises or little tricks that can help with this issue? I'm honestly sick of this and want to be able to speak in a normal fashion.

It's called forcing yourself to talk.

It's not that easy.

Me talking isn't just "talk", it's trying so hard to say the right thing, and end up fucking it up anyways.

I had to do tongue exercises and shit like that when I was young to help me with pronunciation. Can't recall any of the specifics of them though.

I wouldn't say the issue is how I say it. Because overall I say things like anyone else would.

My problem is when my mind goes suddenly blank. Then I begin to stutter and my train of thought breaks. Making me have to take a step back and try to make something on the fly. Usually I apologize and say I can't speak as a joke. Even though it literally is me being unable to speak.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.
put yourself in that situation more often

That's what i've been doing, and it has made the issue more apparent and made me want to fix it so badly.

This is why I said kind of.

I have never been clinically diagnosed with one, however it's so obvious in how I talk I know it's an issue.

But if you want one, I guess you can say stuttering.

My parents put me in a speech class in elementary school to get my mumbling fixed, but it didn't really help 'cause I still tend to mumble if I don't really think about it.

"flaming nipple chops"-Your host, the man they call Ghost.

To say, 'nothing is true', is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say, 'everything is permitted', is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.
Just talk more with people you feel comfortable with

We knew the world would not be the same.
A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita.
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty
and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
"Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.."
I suppose we all thought that one way or another.
take a speech class

the reason you can't speak is because I put a curse on you after you wouldn't invite me to your halo game night

If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
Nope.

Which is probs why I fucked up a presentation today.

I won't lie.

It's been much better now.

Not entirely, more like a quarter of the way. I can keep up an explanation or conversation for much longer than I have in the past.

So gatsby get's the reward for most useful advice.

Legit just let yourself feel confident and feel confident in what you are talking about. Don't think of the people listening as people judging but rather people wanting to listen to you. Just let yourself speak have notecards ready for points but other than that just practice speaking.

Ever since I've left school I've been a bit of an inarticulate bumble, but practicing public speaking is the best way to knock that issue out of the water. It's just about making those situations seem normal to you through habit fam. See if there is a debating team you can join, or a public speaking class.
