If you're insecure, walk weird or talk with a slight slur pic related may be why. I can tell you how fix this shit if you wanna fix this shit but you gotta ask. Also im only helping you fags out to help 4chan become a little less beta..

Basically to tell if you have the shit in the OP stop what you're doing right now, if the tip of your tongue is touching your teeth or near your teeth you have it and its fucking you up socially. Your tongue is not suppose to be touching near your teeth.

Its called fucking orthotropics and TL;DR its means your tongue is suppose to hold your back / head straight and support it so you aren't leaning like a fucking retarded dope all the time. It fucks with your walking and how you look, it even misshapes your head so you look like a dope. I assume a lot of insecure betas have this problem like me but dont realize it, like me. Sec i'll tell you how to fix it but sec i gotta fucking write it out this fucking shit. Also again just fucking ask and i'll tell you.

Basically you gotta make an long capital "N" sound, not the "nu" part the "Nghghgh" part, spelling might be loose. Where your tongue touches that's where its suppose to actually be, the midish, backish of your tongue is suppose to touch the roof of your mouth for support. Its uncomfortable as fuck because your not used to doing it the right way. Make the long "N" sound and suck your tongue in so it stays in place and is touching your roof pallet. If you can make a little "click" when letting go you did it right.

There's suppose to be no air / space between there, You're not suppose to be able to breath because your a mouth breather, your suppose to breathe through your nose while your tongue holds your fucking face and back up. You gotta leave your tongue there. Its uncomfortable but after a week you'll build a muscle and i'll get easier from there. You will look stupid and retarded going "NNNN" and making a face but you gotta fucking do it.

I spend 3 fucking days making NNNN noises and doing nothing but this exercises all day while playing video games and watching movies. I blew a nose fuse on it but after 3 days i noticed the muscle and it got easier from there. Trust me you'll notice the differences after a week since you'll be standing straight.

Thanks. I try to think things through when I can and this one just didn't hit it at all.

I'd like to see one of our doctors weigh in.

I know the teeth and jaw are malleable (hence braces), so a low force applied over a long period could indeed shape the bone structure.

The tongue is muscular so I see no reason why mechanically it couldn't help orient the head and affect posture.

The nose is designed for breathing. It has its own air filtering mechanism and even detects smells. Is it hard to believe that breathing through it reduces colds and the like?

Also, the top of the tongue is a breeding ground for bacteria. Perhaps being in contact (no air) with the top of the mouth reduces the rate of bacterial growth?

Gringing teeth is many times the result of stress relief by clenching jaw muscles. Instead, pushing with the tongue may be the more beneficial behavior. You don't clench teeth while pressing with the tongue. Also, there is no other way to rigidly set your jaw except to clench your teeth. A free hanging jaw doesn't look good and its easier to get broken if you get hit.

So none of this seems far fetched to me, it does seem to make sense.

Even though our jaws are made of bone, over time they are more like plastic:

Forward head posture, or anterior head carriage is usually caused by an extension fixation of the occiput (back of skull bone) in relation to Atlas or C1, the top of the neck vertebra. To get your eyes aligned to the horizon you therefore get a compensatory flexion in the lower neck and upper thoracics. 50% of the entire necks movement is between c0-c2, so a misalignment in this area may lead to quite far reaching consequences for your posture in the entire spine. Probably it is by far the most important reason for the X-ray finding of a straightening or reversal of cervical lordosis, which almost always is a precursor to cervical disc herniation (takes a long time to evolve, but the reason is a biomechanical pressure on a disc due to misalignment). Some chiropractic techniques do work on the palate, I don't use these techniques myself but I wouldn't rule out that it may have an effect on the upper cervical spine. Embryonically and neurologically the palate is very close to the upper cervical spine.

Personally, I find that adjusting the upper cervical spine, correct these posture problems reliably and quickly. I have used other techniques also were you can inhibit tight muscles in the upper neck reflexively by pulling the earlobe in different directions, but generally these softer techniques take longer times to give results.
