learning to use tone correctly and actively thinking about it (as opposed to passively using it like others do) can definitely be tiring since it's basically an exercise to your mind. the only way to get to the "passive use" state is to do it until it doesn't get tiring anymore.
however, the stressed->blunt part does sounds like a normal response, since that tone seems to convey your emotions at that time. if you're feeling stressed alot for this to be common, i would also try to manage stress better, like cutting up tasks into easily manageable parts (but don't cut them too small, as that can make them unmanageable and hard to keep track of!) and giving yourself time to destress by doing things you like to do (video games, shows, videos, music, ... hobbies in general, ...), but also don't overdo it and leave you actual responsibilities behind
