I kinda have social anxiety and when I try to talk to people and be outgoing, when something is sorta funny I get his nervous laughter, and it is nerve racking and then when I try to talk it gets all wavery and awkward, and it just makes me wanna not even try and not talk. My voice is either monotone when I talk to others (like talking to them about homework or crap) or its all shaky and distorted when the talk gets light and funny or on interesting things. ughh how can I help this screwed up voice of mine!?

Try practicing talking in front of a mirror. Or record your voice while talking to your friends. Whatever it is on the record, is how you truly speak. If its bad, try practicing talking with your friends first. Or talk in a quiet voice. That makes the waver in your voice go away. When you are confident enough, try talking a little louder.

Well since you have social anxieties. The first thing should be, be confident in what you are saying t other ppl. And speak up in order to get that shaky and awkward sound out of your voice. Trust me I know ppl who have the same problem.

Ok, I have social anxiety disorder too. When I was young it was harder on me. My self esteem was crap, I couldn't even imgagine why anyone would want to be my friend. And I bombed in ever social interaction. But I got a job in retail, and it forces you to talk to people you don't know all day every day. I got good at it. Now I can sell anything to anyone. I won't pretend my problems just went away, but it did help me to feel more confident.

hmm that sucks. well I suppose it's important to just be concious of how you sound. I would try and figure out why you're getting nervous in the first place, and that solve that. If you can fix that then, maybe your actions would change accordingly.

This could be caused by a number of things. I need more information. Do you get sensory overload headaches? If you do I have an idea of what's wrong.

its not a vocal problem-you just need to try relaxing and getting over it-like a nervous tick in a way.
