Author: I officially have no voice.
Yesterday, when I woke up, I was a little bit hoarse. Nothing terrible, just felt like I’d maybe slept with my mouth open or was a bit sleep deprived. I felt fine otherwise, so I got out of bed, got dressed, and went to church.
The hoarseness became progressively worse throughout the day. Gambling on sleep deprivation as the cause, I purposely overslept this morning.
But when I awoke this morning, my voice was gone. Gone, as in- nothing. The loudest voice I can produce, if I really concentrate, is not quite as loud as a whisper. I still feel fine- maybe a little tired, not a big appetite, but otherwise perfectly normal.
I’m a talkative person, so to have no voice is a STRANGE sensation for me. When I open my mouth, there’s just nothing there. I have an impulse to say something and I can’t.
I’m hoping and praying that this is just a weird laryngitis virus. It surely must be, since it is hit me so quickly.
