I have a task I've been putting off for two weeks because my last attempt to resolve it resulted in a dead end requiring a phone call.
I'm concerned this task may never be completed now.
Why, though? Serious question, why is it so hard to have a conversation with a person? I am introverted, I don't socialize much, I wouldn't be able to walk up a pretty girl and ask her out, but making a phone call? I don't see the problem.
Please don't get me wrong but it's very hard not to see this as a "get over yourself" problem. I pushed myself "over myself" many times when needed, "call that girly that you like, just effin do it!"
A face to face would be fine, I just find that the shitty quality of a phone call and the fact I can't see their face or body language completely destroys my ability to both understand and be understood.l and especially my ability to judge their emotional state. Unless I have both written down what I need to communicate and write down everything they communicate I will remember nothing that happened. These aren't problems I have in a voip call at all, I spend all day in teams calls.
I still make them from time to time, but I will jump at any option to not have a phone call even at extreme inconvenience.
Introverted is one thing, but when you have the right mix of anxiety and ADHD it can sometimes feel impossible. But that can also be a motivator to get it done if your brain is in a conducive mindset at the time.
