weird brain activation

weird brain activation I tend to focus too hard on reading things out loud. The second I try to “dissociate” i somehow end up speaking almost perfectly fluently. This works too in normal conversation, just less effectively. I wonder, is this how fluent people naturally talk? I feel disconnected from my brain or something when I do this. It’s weird. It’s like I’m always hyper focused on what I’m going to say without really realizing it.
