I have this problem and I was wondering if anyone else goes thru this or if anyone knows of a way for me to change.
When ever I have a problem with someone or I'm trying to talk about my feelings or people around me I can't do it. Usually it's something emotional and I'll end up crying so I tend to shut down and end up not getting my point across. But it comes so easy for me to write them a text or a letter and let it all out to them like that. I would do this my whole life but it's starting to become a problem with my loved ones . They always get frustrated and tell me if you can tell me all of this thru a message or letter why didn't you tell me all of this when I was there in front of you. But I can't do it because I tend to be so emotional and cry or get mad and then they interrupt me so what I have to say doesn't come out how I wanted. They dont understand that this is my way of getting everything across without being interrupted. But I get that since its a text or letter they don't get the tone I'm telling them this and sometimes things get misinterpret. I want to change this , I want to be able to look at someone in the face and tell them everything I feel without thinking that me crying is gonna mess everything up and make me look weak. I want to be able to express myself like a normal person but I don't know how or where to start. I don't even know if there's such a thing as having a problem like this .
