It's so frustrating when I can't express myself even though I'm fully verbal and Level 1

It's almost like a physical struggle to get the words out, and even more so as I'm fighting my tears over how frustrating it is. I hate it so much.

Do people try to talk for you a lot?

Or vice versa where you talk to people and they would talk to your "representative" instead.

For example:

I say something to Person A,

Then Person A, instead of asking me directly, would ask Person B instead, "What did she say?"

So Person B acts like a middle man.

Or the reverse, where Person B would talk for you when you can't communicate properly what you want but Person B kind of understands, so they're trying to "translate" for you. Kind of like when kids are still learning how to talk so only the parent kind of understands their words, and they would translate that for strangers.

Does the same still happen to you even after you've grown?

Does anyone else have a hard time being "present" when talking to people?

Not so much like zoning out, more like being in a daze. Like when someone asks me a question. I can answer but I'm not fully "there", if that makes sense. Like I'm buffering, but I understand what they're saying, but like I never fully absorb what's happening. Does that make sense?

Is this common? Is this my depression? Or could it be something else?

I can only sit comfortably when I'm balancing the chair on its hind legs

I get tired so much faster when I'm sitting normally.

How do I stop this? Or what alternatives are there?

2 eligible students lmao. Wtf?

My universities went from prestigious to unknown with zero students left so I went to check. I guess everyone graduated?

Elementary and high school also dropped to a few tens and hundreds of eligible students left.

Should I expect mass deaths soon?

Do you think sponsors get a shout out when they stream the games?

Or do you think it's more of an anonymous donation? What about when it's the district people that send the gift?

Do you think ads are still a thing?

Why did Katniss's mom have to move to the seam instead of her dad moving to town?

Are "mixed income" or "mixed livelihood" households prohibited or is it just tradition to move in with the husband?

How do I fix customers leaving without ordering anything in my restaurant?

They get seated and just leave. Or sometimes they order, get their food served, then leave without eating or paying.

After learning about "Parcel Day" in Catching Fire, I can kind of understand now why volunteering was a thing in career districts.

Since basically the whole district benefits from a tribute from their district winning the games.

Whenever I think about how technology actually works, it still feels like magic.

Like the phone I'm typing this on. All the tiny components that make up this piece of tech somehow just work physically. As someone who didn't study computer or electronics engineering or whatever, it feels nothing short of magical. Even if I understood it all, I'd probably still be amazed.
