    I wonder if your brain then starts to align how you hear your own voice and how you hear it when it’s recorded. If it starts to sound more the same for you.

    Would also be really weird if you for a long period only heard recordings of you speaking, and when you start speak again, you get equally, or probably more, freaked out by your own voice, as when your hear it recorded.

      Yeah, the reverse would be super freaky. However, arranging circumstances like that would be very hard. Like, how do you prevent yourself from hearing your own speech for an extended period of time? Either way, that would be quite an experience once you switch back to normal and you can hear yourself normally again.

        I think it would be an unusual occurrence, but not really “hard”. Imagine a YouTuber who edits their own videos. If they live alone and spend an extended period of time editing their backlog, they might not talk at all and only hear recordings.

          But that would have to go on for an extended period of time to work. You don’t forget your own voice in a week.

          People who make videos and podcasts may wear headphones, but often they leave one ear open for reference. If you cover both ears, you end up talking so loudly that you can hear yourself, which isn’t really helping with the audio quality.

          In order to fully isolate yourself from your own voice, you would have to always wear ANC headphones while talking. I guess that could be doable when making videos and podcasts. Another option is to isolate yourself from the world so you don’t even need to talk to anyone.
