It’s not that I’m very talkative or express myself very fast in my language but in English it was so unbearable.
Some people have such a good skill at improvising and making themselves to be understood. I’m not.
I’m even faster writing.

Thanks god, she’s sweet and very understanding but I’m perfectionist and I always end up giving up all I can’t do at my best. It happened all my day long that’s why I was diagnosed with avoidant personality disorder traits.

I’m angry at myself.

I think you’re being way too hard on yourself… learning a new language is no small feat, and your English is impressive! Better than that of some native English speakers, sorry to say. I think the fact that you give your all each time is really something. Keep going and don’t give up. You definitely rock!
