Nah how about y'all just explain yourselves when asked it's very easy. /s

On a serious note, I have ADHD so if you ask me "what's wrong" I could go on for hours, giving you a list of symptoms, root cause analysis, contributing historical factors, short term suggestions, future suggestions to avoid the state and bias analysis of my own analysis for hours and hours entirely off the cuff.

It's so hard with people who can't, my brain often defaults to the assumption that they are just NPCs who simply lack the level of constant self-evaluation and internal monologue (which constitutes the abstraction of soul to me) and I have to fight it. At any given time I know exactly how I feel, it's very natural to me to assume others must do as well, or their feelings just aren't as deep.
