I dont like cutting people off.

Does that mean you lot can’t hear them?

Or is it a matter of not having the timing to hit them, o maybe that other people (verbally)wrestle the turn from you?

The most awkward is when they don’t so when you finish your sentence, no one heard, but you also didn’t hear them and everyone is now doing that “concentrated on listening looking confused” face, but focusing on the other person. That’s when you know you fucked up.

find a neurolospicy friend group. Immediately. Go to where you think you’ll will want to hang out, find a neurolospicy group, and force you way in. best thing I’ve ever done in my life.

It should be noted, this trick doesn’t work if the group is all extroverted ADHD-havers.

However, being on the receiving end of this -a ton- as well as the defeating glory that is starting to say something only to be interrupted and have your conversation partners just entirely stop listening to you, never to resume… being a recipient of that all too often has taught me to always pivot back to or focus on whomever was trying to say something, to let them get their damned thought out, not just trailing it off into the void.

Me: You’re not, you must have adhd.

This post was triggering, then made me happy that I don’t have to deal with that bullshit anymore. At least with the people I care about.

And when you catch up with reality the subject changed again and you are lost.
