I have literally taken notes on my phone in real-time to resolve some of this. Both to track whatever firehose is aimed at my ear-holes, and to recall points I wanted to make 10 minutes ago, because I couldn't get a word in edgewise.
When asked what I was doing, I simply reply "I have to take notes - there's too much information here." It goes over surprisingly well.
Yeah I get walked over in conversations specifically because I 100% stop talking when someone else is, even when they're the ones interrupting... Until I hit a breaking point and snap on them or walk away and then somehow I'M the bad one. I don't do this with my son, I just disassociate, and I know that's not good for him either, I just don't know what to do when it comes to conversations with him. Although usually it's him just talking at me.
You may have better friends than me. I've had people say that it's "disrespectful" because I must be focusing more on what they said vs what they're now saying or something stupid IDK.
