I am so goddamn sick and tired of being interrupted and spoken over, only to finally get a chance to speak and have folks bitch and complain about my 'tone' and tell me I'm being condescending of speaking to them like they're stupid.
I'm not, actually, I don't fucking think you're stupid. In fact I'm very fucking aware you are smart. I am trying to get the actual words out of my fucking head and in an order that makes sense before I am fucking interrupted again.
If you want my fucking opinion, stop talking until I have said it. I am smart but I also have trouble formulating a cogent discussion. I trip over my words and I have often had 4 and 5 different things going on at once so it gets jumbled which means I have to pause and rephrase and make sure I've covered things correctly.
But instead of being able to fucking finish a sentence you fucking interrupt again. So by the time I get a chance to say anything, I sound like I'm ready for murder. How the fuck do you think it feels when I have to fight for my fucking life in every conversation in order to have any opinion.
I don't know if this is an ADHD thing or an autism thing or if it's just that I'm surrounded by assholes who feel it necessary to not listen when I'm speaking. But truly it's a really shitty feeling to know that in order to even be heard I have to trample through a conversation in order to even 2 words out before I'm interrupted.
