I'm very bad at talking and in conversations I'll say things that make absolutely no sense because I'm afraid the person will stop talking to me if I don't talk. So either way I usually end up looking stupid and I get depressed.
I've always been alone my entire life and didn't make an effort to talk to people until I was around 16(I'm almost 18.), so it's like everyone else has a lifetime of experience and I've only started learning how to talk.
Sometimes I wonder why I even bother I'm probably just mentally retarded or something.
You just need more experience in conversation to make up for the time you lost. Think of it as a social experiment and that your're using these people for your own benefit. That way you will be more confident and less depressed if a particular discourse goes poorly.
