Why does my voice sound weird now?
When you speak and hear your own voice inside your head, your head bones and tissues tend to enhance the lower-frequency vibrations. This means that your voice usually sounds fuller and deeper to you than it really is. Just because it sounds funny and different to you doesn’t mean other people hear it that way.
How do I get rid of my ugly voice?

Why is my voice so unpleasant?
As the vibrations travel through the bone of our skulls, they lower in pitch. So when we hear ourselves speak, our voices sound lower than they do on recordings, which is the way others hear our voices. So basically, our recorded voices sound alien to us. That’s why it disturbs us.

Why is my voice dumb?
When we speak, our vocal cords set off vibrations in our skulls, that in turn cause our eardrums to vibrate. As the vibrations travel through the bone of our skulls, they lower in pitch. So when we hear ourselves speak, our voices sound lower than they do on recordings, which is the way others hear our voices.
What are some voice disorders?

- Vocal cord paralysis or weakness.

Why do we hate our own voice?
The discomfort we have over hearing our voices in audio recordings is probably due to a mix of physiology and psychology. When you hear your own voice when you speak, it’s due to a blend of both external and internal conduction, and internal bone conduction appears to boost the lower frequencies.
Why does my voice sound cringe?
So when you hear your recorded voice without these frequencies, it sounds higher – and different. Basically, the reasoning is that because our recorded voice does not sound how we expect it to, we don’t like it.
Why does my voice sound deeper when I speak?
When you speak, vibrations travel to your ears not only from the air surrounding your head, but also through the bones in your head, such as your jawbone. How you perceive your own voice is a combination of these two pathways, which, thanks to the resonances in your head, is often deeper sounding than a recording of your voice.
Do you not like the sound of your own voice?

But why is voice confrontation so frequent, while barely a thought is given to the voices of others? A common explanation often found in popular media is that because we normally hear our own voice while talking, we receive both sound transferred to our ears externally by air conduction and sound transferred internally through our bones.
Are You the only person that ever heard that voice?
You are the only person that ever hears that voice.” For most of the sounds you hear — a dog bark, a baby laughing, a car beeping, a giraffe greeting another giraffe — the sound is traveling through the air.
