Does anyone else struggle to concentrate in a conversation?

I feel like I can't concentrate on what someone is saying to me about anything unless I'm really interested, I was on the phone with someone talking about issues and what problems and questions I had, and I could not concentrate for the life of me and I only bearly only heard a bit of what they were saying, so it's pretty one sided 

I don't know if the person I was talking to had the same problem but I feel rude to ask them to repeat it as they were talking for ages

  • I find when talking to people my brain pretty much stops and won't function. I don't know how to react to what's being said and have nothing to say back. I try so hard to do well in a conversation but I can't keep it going.

    All this causes a lot of stress and anxiety. I can't cope with it and quickly get worked up.
