I had created an account on this site not long ago, hoping to write something to put my thoughts out there, but I have felt stuck not knowing what to write or how. And the moment I do write something down, I start deleting it and thinking, what's the point in saying that? Someone will just disagree with it anyway. I am stuck in never ending thinking and end up unable to express myself, or not taking any action. Alas I finally had an epiphany to try to write whatever comes out from the top of my head to try and get over this hurdle, and even make this problem the topic.
I had always thought I was better at written communication because it gave me the time to think about what I wanted to say. When speaking with people I usually end up not saying anything at all as it takes too long for me to think about the right thing to say, or to come up with anything to say at all. But I've realised the problem is actually even worse with writing as I'm trying to come up with the perfect thing to say, but my ideas are never good enough to be written down.
This is probably one of the reasons I feel lonely, even when around other people. Either I don't feel comfortable speaking my mind to people because I don't feel there's someone that can be trusted. Or it's all my own problem not being able to formulate words and sentences that can convey something meaningful, making it feel like no one understands me.
Do other people have a similar problem? Or do people find it easy for words to flow from their brain to their fingertips or talking to people?
