I really struggle to respond and I know it affects people around me but I don’t know how to find a way around it, I can see the messages and calls come through but I get really overwhelmed and I just don’t want to answer. Being on the phone and responding really does make me want to cry I feel like I just want to be left alone a lot of the time so I won’t respond for ages and I wonder if anyone else struggles with this and has any advice on how they cope with it.
Finding what I believe to be the right words is my main struggle. I'm more prone now to take a while before responding to an email or a message because I want to be able to process it. It's difficult when it's in person and I need to respond instantly.
