See, I'm the kinda guy that'll just say, "slow down, hoss, take a breath. It's all good. We got time."

And I'll mean it, otherwise I'd be telling them to stfu and leave me alone.

Damn, nearly the same, only difference is that I realize I talked a lot before they pointed out

The third step is where you're failing. They said you talk a lot, not that you need to stop talking. Whenever someone says this, just take a breath, say something like "sorry, I'm really excited about this topic", and then leave them a chamce to respond. Silence is ok, you don't need to fill the void.

Anxiety and self consciousness say it's time to isolate myself and I can't disobey

My mom does this every time I call her. She just keeps on talking. There is a difference between talking and having a conversation.

I'm the opposite. It's been so long since I had a conversation, i barely know how anymore.
