Had to make a phone call at work today and my words came out as mumble jumble. All I had to say was, “The machine was broken.” I find that my communication is terrible in the morning. I tend to think of what I was supposed to say after the fact.
I’m going to have to give up caffeine and somehow sleep earlier. It will improve my mental health too.
Better sleep is a good start, but rest assured occasionally fumbling a sentence or two happens to everyone. You can always say something like, let me start again, and laugh it off with the person you’re talking to. No one will care, it’s a normal part of conversations.
I remember many a time doing early shifts in a call centre, and just word salad-ing at a customer at 7am 😂 I just made the excuse that I haven’t had my coffee yet, or only had one coffee - usually made them laugh, and less likely to think I was having a stroke lol.

Don’t overthink it, it happens to all of us :)
