I don’t know how to talk to him

Does anyone have any advise on how I can like be able to mention something that is bothering me to my partner? I know he’s someone I’m supposed to be able to talk to and he is but with certain things I just can’t and I’m not sure why. I’ve always had trouble like speaking up when something bothers me or hurts me or causes anxiety and stuff like that which I guess is because of anxiety but does anyone have any idea on how I can like stop that? 😂

There’s something that’s been really upsetting me about my relationship with my partner and I know that I need to talk to him about it because it’s really fucking me up but I just can’t every time I go to bring it up I feel like I’m going to be sick or the words literally just won’t leave my mouth.

I don’t know how to fix this and ig get over whatever the issue is with talking about it like I know that I need to but I just can’t figure out how to do that

I struggle to communicate certain things to my husband because I am always afraid it’s going to come out wrong...so then I take forever during the conversation to say what I’m thinking since I’m processing what I want to say and it frustrates him or he starts talking thinking I’m done, and I get frustrated because him interrupting my thoughts gets me off track. What I’ve started doing is writing down what I want to talk to him about. It gives me the chance to make sure I am explaining my thoughts correctly so as not to unintentionally start a fight, and also allows me to communicate everything I’m thinking without having to stop and possibly get interrupted. Then I either read what I wrote down to him or just give him the paper to read himself. Maybe you could try writing it down like that so you can get your wording the way you want it?

Text. Ik texting isn’t the best option, but bringing it up over text will make it easier for when you talk in person, that away you’re not too worried about it. Although anxiety sucks bad! Texting may seem like a bad idea, but i have super bad anxiety and i would always text or talk on the phone and then when we hung out in person, talking about it was a little easier, although i would feel super sick or super upset or emotional. It sucks but it may help
