What to do with my articulation disorders?

Hi\n\nThe first thing I would recommend is you make an appointment with a qualified Speech Pathologist.   This is a person who specialises in how we make words, the specific muscles used as well as linquistic differences.\n\nThey will be able to assess your speech to determine if it is wholly connected with your movement to a new country or a loss of speaking ability.     \n\nIf it is connected to you hearing different accents causing muscle confusion then they will be able to provide techniques and advice on how to rectify and improve your speech.\n\nIf, on the other hand your ability to speak has decreased, then they possibly will be able to identify what, where, how much and possibly why.   They would then be able to advise you what you can do i.e. who else to see.\n\nPersonally, from what you have said, it sounds most likely you are suffering from confused accents syndrome.  I know when I travel I usually end up sounding more like a local and loose much of my 'own' accent.    Oh and I cannot emphasise a strong "r" in a word and pronounce some words in my own unique way and my main language is English.\n\nSo, see that speech pathologist and put your mind at rest.

I'd say don't worry about it, maybe, but you can see a speech pathologist.  They are trained to analyze your speech and they may be able to tell you exactly what about your speech people are reacting to.

Do others say or imply that you have such a condition? If so, try and see a specialist; a speech pathologist. I'm confident that with therapy you can overcome the impediment. Many famous well recognized people (public speakers) have overcome the condition.

Do something and increase your self confidence.When talking don't too fast take your time and let the words come out.Those who laugh at you aren't worthy of being called friends.I know I had this problem too,still have it but not so evident.Hope this helps.

It took my girlfriend about 3 to 4 months before she began to see any movement again on the left side of her face. It is a year later now and she has a lot more movement. Most of her problem now is from muscle mass loss due to lack of use. If your doctor offers you any kind of speech therapy you should do it.\nBest of luck to you and I hope you get better soon.

You need to go to a  doctor who deals with joint . You could have arthirist or rheumisism. Don't wait to long as it will get worse . Good Luck

Get some peanut butter and put it on the roof of your mouth. It works! One of my teacher's had a jar of it in the cupboard always handy for anyone who had hiccups.

Find something else that involves your hands or mouth. Start chewing gum 0 sugarless so you don't rot your teeth. Maybe take up some sort of simple craft that you can do whenever you feel stressed - maybe drawing.

Speech therapy really is the best way to go.  I suppose that you have already tried to do something about it on your own without success.  Speech therapists have the best tools to diagnose and help you work on your concern.\n\nThe good news is that there are a couple of different ways that the "r" sound can be pronounced in English.  If one of them doesn't work for you, you could get away with one of the others.\n\nYou should be able to find diagrams (and maybe even movies) about how this sound is pronounced by searching on "English phonetics".  Just so you know, the symbol used to represent this sound usually looks like an upside-down r.

go to a ear, nose, throat doctor, they can help.  and remember - DON'T stick anything in your ear that's smaller than your elbow unless a doctor tells you to (my mom always told me this!)
