I get vocally tired a LOT, and I've been to a doctor to see if anything's
wrong with my vocal chords. They're apparently fine but it doesn't take much
to set them off. I have a bad habit of oversinging and with shoddy
placement, so it's really a problem of technique in my case. It is hard to
admit to this because singers usually see a weakness in their voice as an
irrevocable mistake on their part, when it can usually be fixed and
prevented. Also, H2O is a singer's best friend for life!:)
