I learned the new phrase "dwell on"
I came across the phrase "dwell on", so I'd like to use it.
To avoid confusion, let me quickly explain about my son.
My son has autism.
He is not good at communicating with people and also has a low IQ.
Last year, we went to KFC to order some chicken for Christmas.
In front of the counter, he couldn't communicate with the shop clerk at the time.
I ended up helping him telling the right word with a small voice and he managed to order.
When we back to the car, he blamed himself.
He said something like "Ahh, I failed again. why can't I speak well"
I said "It's okay, no worries"
Something like this happens quite often.
He often dwell on his mistake too much.
Does my use sounds okay?
Dwell on というフレーズに出会ったので使ってみたいです。
混乱を避けるため、まず息子のことについて説明します。
私の息子は自閉症という障害があります。
人とコミュニケーションするのが苦手で、知的レベルも低いです。
去年のクリスマスに、ケンタッキー・フライド・チキンに行ってチキンを予約しました。
その時彼は、お店の人とうまくコミュニケーションができませんでした。
結局私が小さな声で彼に言葉を伝えて、息子はなんとか注文することができました。
その後車の中で彼は、自分を責めました。
「あー、またうまく言えなかった。なんで俺はうまく話せないんだろう。」
私は「大丈夫、気にしないで」と言いました。
こういうことがよくあります。
彼は、自分の失敗をいつもくよくよ気にします。
この使い方は正しいですか？

Sounds good! That's how you'd use it. Just needed to conjugate it according to the third person singular pronoun.

"Dwell on mistakes" is a very common expression, so yeah!
"Dwell on the past" is another common expression.
The nuance is usually negative, but you could say, "Dwell on it for a bit," which would mean something like "take your time to think about it for a little."
Also, without a negative nuance, "dwell on" can mean "linger." Like, "She let her eyes dwell on him," but this sounds a little literary.

He often dwells on his mistakes too much.
Just "mistake" is okay if you mean the most recent mistake he's made; but if he thinks about (dwells on) a lot of his mistakes at once, then I think it's better to use the s.
