Voice problem ?
Hi. I am 16 years old boy and I don't have a deep male teeneger voice like most of my friends. It is some sort of deep but higher pitched voice. It is also so low and quiet but also raspy and hoarse. Then I feel like I can't even speak. But also sometimes it changes volume from high to low and suddenly breaks. It is embarrassing because when I want to speak someone they always say "What" because they didn't hear me.
This is happening to me for almost 5 years.
