    You should be able to scream whenever you want.

            I very much do not understand the question. I think you accidentally a word. I'm guessing you mean "why can I only scream when I sneeze". But even that, I'm not sure I understand. Do you mean you can't scream when you're in the act of a sneeze? Or that you scream every time you sneeze and cannot prevent yourself from doing so? Both?

            Was this post meant for the [email protected] community?

                What do you mean you "cannot scream", exactly? In what way does the closest approximation to a "scream" you can do not qualify as a "scream"? Just pitch specifically? Can you sing higher than you can "scream"?

                Or if it's not specifically the pitch, and if it's something you'd like to change, I might suggest you look into... well... learning. Search for "fry scream" on YouTube. It'll take some practice, but it's certainly a way to scream. And as a bonus, learning to do it "right" can avoid straining or injuring your voice.

                  Anecdotally, I lost the ability to silently sneeze in my mid 30s and it seems to be similar for most people. I remember there was a study that showed this but I can't remember why it happens.

                    This is more NoStupidQuestions than AskLemmy imo...

                    To answer your question, you most likely have mental (or even possibly physical) inhibitions that stop you from screaming "on purpose". But sneezing is involuntary, so it isn't stopped by inhibitions.

                      It's because role model. Somebody did the same when you were young.

                        involuntary

                        I read or heard somewhere that deaf people don't sneeze with a voice. They just kind of cough really hard once, because they haven't heard what sneezing sounds like.

                        I uh, don't know if that's true. But it didn't sound completely implausible. 😅

                          Interesting! I seem to maybe be experiencing something similar. Gonna keep an eye out for that and try to sneeze silently.

                            Screaming when sneezing is unnecessary and obnoxious.

                              It's more satisfying though. I do it usually only when I'm away from people.
