one of my italian my mother tongue teachers used to tell me she loved my essays and such and always gave me the highest grades but would always add youre like a river in flood i hope thats how you say it you just need to contain that grew up to win literary contests and such but was always told something along those lines i would read other peoples essays and be amazed by how short and concise their paragraphs were i have been diagnosed a few months ago age 20 and it all makes so much more sense to me now
