Lets say I share that I had a hard weekend because I went to a wedding and couldnt drink alcohol. I might say I was depressed or angry or whatever. Someone who crosstalks-lets call him Joe might raise his hand and say" My name is Joe and Im an alcoholic and sarahsweets you shouldnt have been at that wedding" or " You shouldn't/wouldn't/couldn't be depressed or angry" Its basically like "telling" others what to do, interupting people that are sharing to give your opinion and in my area that also goes for the AA people also in drug recovery that take time to rail against big pharma and how doctors are crooks, etc.
