Happens to me all the time

Does anybody ever feel like posting but then type up a bunch of stuff and then realize that it's a bunch of bullshit and then not post?
I don't feel like I can contribute to most of the conversations I participate in--even real life. Like I have nothing worth while to say. But then even if do have something to say, then it comes out all wrong and I haven't been able to communicate effectively.

Yep. Then sometimes I'll just stop posting for the remaining time.
Social situations / class discussions. What's in my head is not what I want to say. Sometimes it's just the social anxiety, other times there's just something else. I've been trying to figure out what the fuck it is, but it sucks to have this incredibly strong opinion or discovery in a text and it comes out as a broad blanket statement.

I've got that problem. It stems from the fact that I couldn't ever really explain what I was feeling about situations to my parents without remaing closed up. I gotta watch what I say very carefully to them or they take it the wrong way. It's getting to the point now, however, where I'm going to say what I want and it doesn't matter so much how people react.

Yeah, me too. But some days I feel like all the progress I've made in social situations is moot. It all comes crashing to the ground and I feel like I have to start all the way back from square one.
I've heard somewhere that the best gauge of a kid's future success isn't his intelligence but his ability to communicate.
Those natural talkers don't realize how lucky they have it sometimes.

I mainly lurk around the pub. It seems like when I do post, I'm the last one on the thread to post. Sometimes I wonder if I'm a conversation stopper.

This is my situation too. Often I'll post something and then the thread just dies. It's like I've got bad breath or something.

I always wonder why I'm a thread killer. Prevents me from posting sometimes.
I guess the ones of us who worry need to stop being self-critical. Posts are just hypertext.
