Hey guys,
I recently posted about my success with quitting caffeine and twitching. That is still continuing so that's good! As health anxiety tends to go though, my ALS fears have transitioned to bulbar onset. My main concern is that my speech is slurred, which it isn't (I know how bulbar ALS sounds and I sound nothing like it). Despite this, I can't stop focusing on my mouth and tongue while I speak, and it's causing me to stumble over my words more often, as I try to force myself to enunciate perfectly, to "prove" I don't have bulbar ALS. Does anyone have any experience with letting this hyper focus go? Or has anyone dealt with the same thing?
