It might have to do with the fact that I have a slight speech problem. I often find it difficult to articulate and while in a conversation I may start thinking about this problem and it often blocks me from saying what I'd want to say.

Although I'm not sure I would identify this as a speech problem in the traditional sense, I have a similar problem. I find I like to actually see what I'm going to say in my head as text. I'm very self-conscious about proper speech but what comes out of my mouth is often disjointed and incomprehensible. Part of this can be attributed to the fact that I start thinking about something and absent-mindedly assume that the other person has a window into my thought process. It's frustrating but I'd like to think that practice can somewhat correct this problem.
