Does anyone else struggle with overexplaining? People really don't seem to like it, it makes them upset with me, but I don't know how else to make sure I am interpreted correctly in a situation. Been wildly misinterpreted my whole life. Is there something I can do which isn't not explaining but isn't over-explaining?

I also do this.

In my opinion, there's no in between. If the people you're with are too impatient to listen to your entire explanations then consider replacing them with more patient people.
