Confused Intolerance to Conversations

Does anyone else experience difficulty having long conversations (20min+)? I find that if they are emotionally related or having to do with important or stressful topics, I will become overstimulated rather easily. It really bothers me because these are usually therapists or family members that I am talking with and they are supposed to help.

I am tempted to stop engaging in conversations altogether but this just doesn't come natural to me. I've always been a conversationalist and prided myself on my ability to use the English language. I guess that's another skill that I have lost.

Anyone else struggle with this or have any advice? These conversations generally involve me explaining my situation for continuous amounts of time before getting a response. Perhaps it's the process of searching for the information in my brain and then processing it verbally which causes problems.
