I have a friend like that - she's gotten a bit better over the years I've known her to the point now that I can make an extended statement without being interrupted, but honestly this woman doesn't know how to shut up. She's also alcoholic as am I. I love her to bits, but she's a real motormouth. I think it's anxiety too.

I have the opposite problem. I have a real problem with talking - too shy. I'm ok around people I know really well, but in a party or with people I don't know well, I really have to force myself to talk.
