I am 21 years boy. My speaking speed is very fast, which is bit difficult to understand for many people and I have to articulate again with little more effort. Its from childhood no one noticed nor even me, but now in college, I have to attend and participate in various public speaking activities, I always try to escape from all these but I want a solution now. I had visited ENT and Speech Therapist, endoscopy was done and vocal chord was fine. Doctors suggested me to read everyday few pages alphabet by alphabet a bit louder for two years. This may be the solution, I followed this for a couple of week but its very embarrassing for me to do in front of friends and family members. This practice I cannot continue further. I don't stammer or stutter but I speak very fast and when recorded my voice even I can't understand full sentences of mine. Please suggest any fast method to overcome this problem, I am very depressed, shocked,unwilling to live life prosperously.

You have learnt your speech over last many years. It?s a daunting task to unlearn the fast speech and re learn it the new way. Please be prepared to put in some time and lot of patience and hard work to get over it. Speech therapy is a way to reach your goals. Accompanying anxiety and impatience may be deterrents in your recovery. Consult a psychiatrist personally for a review. It would certainly help. Good luck.
