I realized I may not have explained what I'm going on abt when I say tangential/circumstantial speech/thought, so here's the tea on that from what seems like one of the only truly credible sources on the internet for info on severe mental illness!:
What is the difference between tangential and circumstantial thought?
A circumstantial thought process describes someone whose thoughts are connected but go off-topic before returning to the original subject. On the other hand, a tangential thought process is a series of connected thoughts that go off-topic but do not return to the original topic.

as it so happens, I have come out with some circumstantial speech below cut if you want an example
It came to my attention today that I've been spelling tangential (and other variants on the root word tangent) wrong*, (no i in tangent) which then led me to the realization that I've probably not explained it, plus I often forget the distinction myself so gonna bookmark this lol
*I know ik, there are def worse things in this world than a spelling/grammar error and while I do not begrudge or look down on anyone for struggle with spelling etc, ...
- (let's not encourage classism, ableism, even xenophobia, etc) - and try not to correct people just trying to exist/communicate thoughts, unless specifically asked/the situation expressly calls for it i.e. point out double standards if someone is mocking/bullying/harassing someone for making mistakes while making their own errors in doing so - you get the gist) -
... English/language is both a special interest + strength of mine - so naturally I often beat myself up when I realize I made a mistake for any other person to see, and feel overwhelmingly compelled to fix it even if the moment to do so has well-passed (maybe part of potential unDXed OCD idk?)
