Struggling to Stay Focused During Conversations

I feel like when I talk to people I lose interest fast, it could be something I’m into but all of a sudden I’m focused on some lamp behind them or whatever. It’s hard to keep eye contact and I find myself not hearing them sometimes, they could be right in front of me and I’ll just see their mouth move. I also have a really low social battery, which doesn’t help with making friends too well.

I think it’s our anxiety saying okay this isn’t important right now, let’s think of ways to get out of here. What’s our escape plan? Or what should I say when they stop talking. I have to say something interesting too? Basically your brain is running different proceses and thinking of different things instead of fully listening. No? 😆 Could also be ADD/ADHD 🤷🏻‍♂️
