Spitting saliva as you speak can be an embarrassing problem, but it is reversible. This article provides some ideas on how to reduce the possibility of this happening.
Contents
Steps
- Practice in front of a mirror. This also helps with conquering lisps, stuttering, and most other speech problems.
- Tell yourself you are going to fix the problem. Self motivation is big in this.
- Always swallow before you speak. This almost always eliminates most of the problem.
- Don't speak too fast. Speaking fast always increases the risk of spitting.
- Always be confident! Being confident and believing in yourself is the key to getting over any problem (except overconfidence).
Tips
- Don't eat foods while speaking; your body produces saliva to break your food down.
- Do not talk if someone is eating something that you want, your mouth will produce saliva.
- As stated above, always swallow before you speak.
- Practice makes perfect.
- Try not to talk while eating, this worsens the problem.
- Don't deny it if someone tells you that you have done it, as then they will avoid you because they don't want to be spat on.
Warnings
- Avoid talking a lot during the first week of trying to correct this problem.
Things You'll Need
- A mirror
- Confidence
