Sounds very similar to my, "I have something relevant and important to say and you're moving past the past where it's relevant!" And it's always with someone who acts like I'm always interrupting when actually they are constantly interrupting.

Two words: Group. Therapy.

I'm immensely grateful for the help and support it's provided but holy hell this happens a dozen times a session.

That doesn't sound like something I can convince my co-workers to do, and it probably won't change them any.

Oh, I'm not saying take them to group therapy. It's just that it happens a lot in that setting.
