Monotone voice in groups, normal in 1:1 situations

Me too. Guilty as charged. Maybe yet another reason why I did not care for public speaking. :oops:

My mom mocks my voice all the time, and I really hope I don't sound the way she makes me sound. She imitates me in a really whiny, nasally voice with a lot of emphasis and inflection in the wrong areas.

It may be a cliche, but throughout life I've found it to be painfully true quite often.

That "familiarity breeds contempt."

Sometimes it can pay for we on the spectrum to put some distance (if possible) with those in our closest social orbit. The same persons who pound our psyches with their criticisms so regularly that we begin to believe them.

Mom always looking at my "resting b-face" and always complaining, "What's wrong, dear?" Ugh.
