Is it normal that I freak out when 2 people try to talk?

When 2 people start talking to me at the same time, I can't pick one to listen to like most people do. I just hear them both and can't understand anything either of them is saying and I get kinda freaked out and feel really overwhelmed. I usually just yell "stop i can only listen to one of you!" I think it kinda catches people off guard that I get so touchy over it

It's extremely difficult to listen to 2 people at once, completely normal.

Ive noticed women often all talk at the same time and it works, perhaps that's why the say the same thing reworded 5 or 6 times. I have the same trouble as you and also I have trouble blocking out the tv when poeple are talking. yeah that's how I spell it now.

It's a matter of culture and sophistication, I guess.

I have a very low opinion of people who can't listen and start to prattle when someone else is talking.

Me too, I can't hear both at once. It's total gibberish if I try.
