I wish I could just say what I’m thinking

I wish I could just say what I’m thinking This is mostly just me venting but I’m constantly frustrated. When I’m talking to someone, I know exactly what I want to say, word for word, but I can’t even begin a sentence. I’m pissed, annoyed, and depressed all at once. It seems like my brain has become faster than my tongue/vocal cords. I’m so thankful most people tend to be accepting/understand, but I can’t help but think how much easier things would be if I could just say the things I want to say without adjustment. Instead, I have to think of alternate ways to express what I’m thinking which often results in inaccuracy and a misrepresentation in what I’m truly thinking/trying to say. It’s so frustrating!
