You’re right. There’s nothing wrong with you. We’re all different. We can’t be good at everything. And we can’t be good at all the same things as others either.

You’ve got plenty of beautiful gifts and can express yourself extremely well.

I used to have a terrible time speaking up. Worrying about taking too long. Freezing up etc. What helped was adopting the mantra that they can wait till I’m ready to speak. I’d tell myself that when feeling anxious and doing the deer in the headlights thing. Made a big difference.
