I don't know what else it is but I can tell you it's definitely annoying. I joke about it because everyone thinks I'm just faking but it's just not fun.

Can you describe the not fun parts

When you try to talk seriously to someone and they act like you're playing because you don't sound like you used to. I was born and raised in the deep South (with everything that implies of Southern ladies) so I can't even be impolite with telling people to knock it off because I'm serious. Even worse than that, though, is the fact that I lost the ability to assimilate accents according to the people I talk to. I used to be able to talk to someone for 30 minutes or so and perfect their accent which was very helpful in making anyone feel more comfortable and relaxed because I sounded like them. Now I can't do that anymore.
