prompt 15: my preferred methods of communication, in order; LJ, face to face, texting, email, IM, fb

Livejournal: this is my favorite method of communication. It makes me feel no pressure; other people can respond to someone's post and so when I fail to respond it doesn't get taken as a personal slight, so I can have access without the potential for guilt. I can respond whenever I like without worrying that it is the wrong time of day or that it

It seems like a common theme here is pressure to communicate, with strong preference given to communication avenues that don't necessarily require an immediate response. This is also a really helpful guide to communicating with you, and I think there's significant overlap in our styles.

If I could burn my phone, I would. Email is also a big problem for me because of the obligation to respond, respond quickly, and respond completely. I've fired a couple of dozen clients because they were too demanding via phone/email, and these sorts of demands have a palpable effect on my mental health.

Ah, I love having seen this!! It seems like texting is the default communication for EVERYONE in my world, and while it works because my cell signal is low, there is definitely a lot lacking.

I also use a ton of parenthesis in my updates, teehee ^_^ I don't really identify as ADD, but whenever I get on here it's like there's so much I need to fill in all at once that it gets really disorganized really fast and I have to throw little notes in within notes. heh :)
