I have a speech impediment. I knew 2 other people with autism who have speech impediments. Maybe it’s just a coincidence?
I have a hard time projecting my voice. And I talk with a lisp. A lot of the time I end up sort of grunting instead of talking. I can’t help it.
I had a therapist who told me I talked funny and people at work sometimes comment rudely on it.
But still, I’m not all that self conscious about it. It’s the way I’ve always talked. So I always forget about it.
