I lately sound like I only have one braincell when I talk in English

When I talk in English I feel more comfortable and confident. When I talk in Greek I feel awkward. And lastly when I talk in French I feel dumb. 
Spanish was the first language I learned but I mostly like to speak English now. Since I usually speak English and don’t speak Spanish as much, I feel like I can’t express myself as well in Spanish. When I’m around family that only speaks Spanish, I find that sometimes I just can’t express myself well or get a point across and my personality changes a little if that makes sense.
I think the same thing happens with my on except the opposite, she’s more comfortable speaking Spanish.
I have an English accent! But not the stereotypical posh accent, just… an English accent?
Japanese was my first language but I sort of put it aside for English as I lived in an English speaking country, so when I speak Japanese, I still sound like a cute kid
No but I know a friend who was born deaf and we both took America signs language together during high school.
my class had to be deaf from the whole day.
If your high still have America sign language or other version of it. It important to learn.
I would say that I sound friendlier, warmer and more positive when speaking in English compared to when I speak in Swedish (goes for writing as well). I think that this has partly to do with the value behind the words and the words I frequently use. A lot of words have a bit more meaning in Swedish than in English to me for some reason.
“I love you” is something I never say in Swedish but tend to use in English.
Words like “awesome” and “amazing” are also more sparingly used in Swedish.

Bump!
Did the way you speak change over time?
nope.
I’m writing a Irish character for a Rp. Might have told you this already.
I’m used to being polite in English, but my dad is trying to teach me and my sister Igbo and the language is a lot more demanding than I’m used to lmao. Even when I went to Nigeria, people were a lot more… straightforward… in speaking, like, if there was something they didn’t like about you, they would say it outright.
