I say things I don't mean because I'm afraid of what will someone think if I say something weird, so I just go woth something easy and mostly false.

It's basically ,a wrong choice of words, a habit can replace a habit, repeat and practice the process of thinking for few seconds first, and then saying anything, think about respectful and kind words,

I do this when I'm really fed up with someone or when my feelings are so bottled up that I just explode

Based on my personal experience I don’t always mean things I say. I have anger issues and because of my rude and bluntness I often drive people away. But what they don’t realize it is if I say things I don’t mean and fight with you that’s just my way of in a way of showing concern. Sometimes our anger gets the best of us and I believe that for me personally if I am angry and say something harsh you should look at the character I show every other day rather and know I have good intentions instead of basing judgement on what I say. I never mean it.

It's most likely because you may have trouble portraying your real feelings because you're scared to, or you're worried about being judged so you say things that you think other people want to hear.

It is very hard to control at times some emotions or thoughts you have, but have not been in a situation to express. At the time when you get into an argument with someone, along with the things you kept inside a lot of negative words can come out which often are not what you actually think. It happens to all of us. Be careful however, because sometimes you do mean them but you don't want to admit it.

If you feel stressed, angry, or you just don't know what to say you will always say some random things that you didn't mean to say and that is normal. It happens to everyone

People say things they don't mean for a lot of different reasons, I think you might want to look at the emotions behind why you say the things you don't mean. Is it out of anger? Or sadness? Or so you don't get in trouble?

Maybe because we get frustrated by not knowing ourselves how to cope with a situation we are not used to. Therefore we are likely to snap sometimes but we dont mean to.

probably you say things when you are emotional and words come out wrongly.you could mean it at that time because you are feeling certain things but after realise you didn't mean it that way.good action, would be avoiding saying or responding to certain conversations when you are not in a good mood in that you won't regret bad words

This usually happens when you're at the peak of your emotions. At that point, your thoughts become muddled up and you will be unable to process them easily.

Sometimes our emotions get the best of us and we end up acting and behaving in ways that we never would have imagined. It happens to the best of us, don't worry.

Sometimes we temper our words and say what we think others might want to hear instead of truly saying what we feel. We do ourselves a disservice when we don't speak our truths.

Sometimes our emotions make us saying things we don't mean in the moment. Taking a moment to breathe and reflect on how you would feel hearing that comment can help when unsure of what you are saying is good to say.

When faced with a hard situation where a decision has to be made, normally people tend to say or do the first thing that comes to their mind. Most of the times, it's not even what people mean, but they said or did that in a spontanuous way. In my opinion, before you say anything, you should take a step back, take a deep breath and think about the whole situation and about your possible responses. Have always in mind that your words and actions can effect other people.

We all need to communicate openly and more honestly. Saying things we don't actually mean is a great way to do that. It shows that we're not hiding anything from them and care enough to not make them feel good just temporarily.

Sometimes we don't think about what we are going to say, and that's just humane and part of us. You can always apologize after saying things you didn't mean to.

When we get angry or panicked, we say things that we think will end the discussion quickly; but those things can be hurtful. We just have to be more conscious of what comes out of our mouths; in other words: think before you speak.
