I think, at least for myself, and I don't think I'm unique, that behavior occurs on a continuum. Often, when I am very stressed out, I talk more than normal and afterwards I wonder if what I was saying made sense. I try to be in total control of everything I do, and the more stressed I get the harder it is to do. I rarely just let myself, be myself. I'm a control freak, but the only person I'm trying to control is myself, and I'm not always cooperative. Does that make any sense at all?
