I've put my foot in my mouth before in text conversations. One time in particular I can recall is because I was having a live conversation - it was a group chat where several people were present/typing/reading/engaging. There wasn't that pause between me typing and hitting send because my brain was treating it more like a face to face conversation, I guess.

But also part of what reduced that "wait, you should probably think about what you're typing/saying before you hit send" response in my brain may have been my state of mind. When I think back on it I do recall that I wasn't in the best place mental health wise. That can't excuse it, though; at the end of the day I was being an ass who lacked consideration for others. Anyway, I do think there's a possibly my less-than-great mental health may have had something to do with how I handled that situation.

Funnily enough, the context is kind of similar to this greentext. I ended up saying something insensitive towards a friend's (terminal) family member. It wasn't quite as bad at this greentext, lol, but still.
