"Overtalking: A Potential Indicator of Mental Health Issues"

Overtalking can be a symptom of various mental health conditions such as ADHD, autism, generalized anxiety disorder, and bipolar disorder. People with ADHD may speak impulsively, while those with autism may struggle with social cues and transitions. Generalized anxiety disorder can lead to excessive worry and a need for constant feedback, while bipolar disorder can cause pressured speech during manic or hypomanic episodes. It is important to consider other symptoms and seek a professional diagnosis for these conditions. Managing overtalking can involve strategies such as using a notepad, speaking in succinct sentences, and being mindful of cues from listeners.
