I don't know if this is an autism-related thing, or something else entirely, but I have a hard time raising my voice for anything. The only times I do are when I'm startled or upset (or if a cat starts digging their claws into my pants). Sometimes I can raise my voice if I'm listening to loud music, but not always. But in general, I feel like there's a sort of mental block keeping me from raising my voice.
I also have trouble breaking the silence, even if I'm alone. Like right now, I'm alone, but I don't think I'll be able to say anything unless someone calls me. When I was little and I had a bad dream or something, it would take quite a few tries to get an actual voice out to call my mom.
Is this something I should mention at my upcoming psych evaluation? Or maybe just my regular therapist?
