Is it normal not to know how to self-control?

My ex got upset with me for speaking without thinking again and told me to practice self control, I don’t know how to even begin doing that. I have adhd, unmedicated, and I know self control is a big issue, but I should be able to know how to do it right?

    Try meditation/mindfulness stuff. Which I'm shit at but even trying helps. Work on that.

    Ugh I sound so hippie... *retch*

    Like another user suggested, just think about what you want to say. How would that person or the people you're talking to react if you say that? If you don't think it will turn out well, don't say it.

    It's always a good idea to engage your brain before opening your mouth. Think how you would react if you got your kind of answer to a question asked.

    Alternatively if you say nothing, you can't get in any trouble.
