<p>sometimes when i feel really emotional and things get heated between other people and I, I have a hard time trying to articulate in words what im feeling or what the problem is to the person whom i am talking to. i can actually feel my brain literally overheat cause my brain is searching for the right words to say but no words come out cause my brain can’t figure out what to say fast enough. in other words my brain shuts down just like how a computer shuts down when it overheats and as a result does not function. </p>
<p>Pick your battles. It sounds as if you get emotional/heated often with people (enough to notice patterns about it, anyways…), which isn’t a good thing to begin with.</p>
<p>^ that wasn’t the point. the point is that my brain doesn’t work well for me. i want it to think in words but it fails me. my brain crashes from trying to make it work too hard.</p>
<p>i want my brain to back me up during arguments but it fails me.</p>
<p>naw, the same problem happens to me. when i get so heated at people my face gets red, and my voice starts to shake pretty badly-like i cant find what to say, but what i do happen to say is really cracky//shaken off. it’s pretty funny it’s only happened twice in like the past few years but i know what you are talking about. so no, you aren’t dumb for this. you’re only dumb for spelling ■■■■■■■■, “retarted”</p>
<p>^ LOL! That describes me now that I think about it. Once someone told me that I sound “normal” when I yell.
You should try to defuse the argument. Try to calm down so the other person who is yelling just looks irrational and stupid, not matter how right they are. The cool, collected person wins every argument for not letting their emotions overtake logic.</p>
<p>I’m sorry but I read this thread and LOLed.</p>
<p>I think you need to just chill and focus more on getting the right words out without the emotion. You don’t need to be loud, angry, or aggressive to win an argument, especially when you are dealing with a person who acts that way. It’s always better to just calmly rip your opponent apart because when they freak out and you look unphased by their anger they lose it.</p>
<p>If it was enough of an issue that you felt you needed to ask about it, you should maybe talk to a psychiatrist or therapist about it in detail. Chances are they’ll reassure you it’s nothing to worry about, but at least they’ll probably have some productive advice. Don’t get information off of an online forum about problems like this, because no one will take you seriously.</p>
<p>im sorry but i don’t believe in “therapists” or “psychiatrists” cause they tell you what you want to hear and what you already know. take this piece of advice: theres a sucker born every minute and only a sheep sucker would go to that kind stuff. you opened up a can of worms but this thread isn’t really about that. sorry if im coming off as an a hole cause im not trying to be but i have my own opinions.</p>
<p>Sometimes, mental health professionals will also tell you things that you don’t want to hear. The fact that you don’t want to hear them, however, does not mean that they are true and that you are unwilling to accept the truth, it could also mean that the mental health professional failed to properly read the patient. It happens all the time, it’s just that the more neurotic types like you and I wouldn’t let a mental health professional get away with ******* advice.</p>
it’s only happened twice in like the past few years but i know what you are talking about. so no, you aren’t dumb for this. you’re only dumb for spelling ■■■■■■■■, “retarted”</p>
