Are you connversationally stilted?

Post Reply New Topic

Am on a discord text/voice chat . Tried joining in the voice chat . I'm very much realising the other people are much more natural and spontaneous than me . It's like I make stand alone comments whereas there's a conversational flow between the others.

You are willing to voice chat? You are a few steps ahead of me then. No chats, definitely no skype or facetime for me. I erase those apps from my electronics.

Well I set up the discord for members of a psychosis come schizophrenia forum I belong to. I felt a bit churlish not trying at least to join in with the voice chat. Previous to that only ever voice chatted with my dad and step mum and another person a couple of times from a now defunct forum. It's not something I find easy and hasn't got better over time.

I...erm...well...that is...kind of...[distracting thought about something said five minutes ago]...umm...what's the word?...hmmm...[ooh, what's that strange noise]...it's like...as if...[quick, think! what are we talking about again]...er...I...um...[racks brain for generic acceptable response]...what it is...erm...I think...um... Yes!

I’ve been known to get that way......
