Anyone have the sort of mindset where you’ll be talking about something and at the same time, a part of you is thinking about how your future self will judge you for how you delivered it in the moment (hexbear.net)

It’s 3 AM and this makes perfect sense, but it might not after I sleep. Idk I feel really strongly about this part right now, probably need to bring it up in therapy but very curious if it’s at all relatable

I don't have the mental resources for that sort of second-track thought stuff. Maybe, maybe towards the end of a detailed technical explanation, I'll think "that was way too fast, apologize for the speed, ask for questions and give them a decent window to respond." But no, squeezing words out of my thought-mash is generally too much of a task to allow for a getting-nervous task to run at the same time.
