I often have to stop mid sentence, tell people I’m already at the end of my paragraph, and have to back up several missed points.

    That’s actually a really apt analogy, it’s like running at a cheetah’s pace everywhere except sometimes you trip over your own feet. I can’t count the number of times as a kid I would start daydreaming or get impatient when people are talking to me because I already figured out what their point was 20 seconds ago

      The hard part was learn (and I’m still learning) to not interrupt them (because it’s rude). But yeah, feels like I’m speedrunning conversations sometimes.

        I have the ‘oh fuck I better say this before I forget, or entirely distracted by their other points’ interruption thing.
