hello, this is my first time really going on here to post or ask for any advice or anything like that but im trying to get a better understanding of myself. 

does anyone else struggle with talking about themselves too much in social situations or tend to “hijack the conversation”? i don’t intentionally try to, nor do i even notice that it’s happening when i do it, but my roommate recently pointed out that i tend to shift any conversation and make it about me or my experiences in life. i always thought it was my way of connecting or relating to others but i don’t know how to catch myself or stop. i feel like all my life i was never listened to &amp; now it appears im the one doing the interrupting.
