Am I alone in this? I've realised during the last year that messaging and communicating online is a big source of anxiety for me. I figured it's probably because you can ruminate on what you say more. In person, you don't have too long to think about what you say and what you say is not written down forever for you to keep reading back and mulling over. I get concerned that other people will overanalyse what I say and if I say something slightly offensive or weird that it's more obvious. When speaking in person you don't always catch exactly what people say and it's easier to get away with messing up your words.

Anyone have any tips for overcoming this?
