Have you analyzed it? What's causing it for you? I have some thoughts on this. Like do you have better speech talking to some people, and with others you don't? Did you have a psychological trauma when you were a kid?

Try calling while lying on your back. It decreases it by so much. I guess it normalizes breathing for some reason and increases blood flow to the head. If it works for you, don't forget to say thanks ...
