is it normal


Question Posted Thursday November 3 2005, 8:43 pm

ok well I have been talking to myslef since I was about 6 or 7 and I seriously feel like I'm talking to someone else. I ask myself questions and then give myself an answer all out loud. When I think these I can't come to a solution, but when I talk to myself out loud I feel like another person is talking to me. I find myself looking in magazines and saying out loud and pointing as if I'm giving another person a visual "I'm her."(on that I also find myself choosing who I am in a movie show anything even books... what could that mean) And then I sit in my room and I act out diffent things talking to myself and then talking as if I'm another person and I can get so into it that I get angry or upset I can even cry example: (I have done this) i say "I love you so much" then "I don't know if this will last so let's not kid ourselves and continue with this" then my throat starts to close up and I get so into i say more and more and start feeling the emotions one would feel if this were actaully happening and then I just keep on talking to myself. Is this normal? If not what is it? I'm 13

It sounds to me like you could possibly have mutiple perosnalities, schizophrenia in other terms, this is nothing to be ashamed of so don't listen to what some people have written to you on here. If this continues to bother you, i'd suggest maybe making an appointment to see a psychologist. They are really helpful, and respectful of you. Most of them are specially trained in that department alone. There are many terms out there for multiple personalities some may sound ugly, but don't be ashamed. This could also be something that could deminish after you have gotten through with puberty when your hormones, and brain chemicals seem to balance out more. The best thing to do is take it a day at a time, cheer up also, I wish you the best of luck.

It's pretty much normal. I do that a lot too. People like us make awesome actresses because we can call up emotions so quickly. If you are worried, talk to your 'rents in maybe going to see a counselor.

♥ It isn't normal to talk to yourself like that, but that is who you are and you shouldn't be ashamed. You should maybe talk to somebody about it and ask them if they do the same. DOn't worry to much about it unless you start to become paranoid or don't like talking to real people then see a mental doctor.

♥ Write notes to yourself at night and then in the morning get them out and read them. It is a proven fact that if you do this you will have a better social life. ANd it will eliminate craziness. Talk to people more often so that you can keep a social life.

♥ Just remember be you and love who you are. Don't be ashamed.

there's nothing wrong with you. it's part of your personality. what makes you who you are. don't listen to the crap other idiots who think they know anything on this site have to say and certainly don't take their s*** (such as the last response, i suggest you resond with a good f*** you, as i know i will). people on here are inconsiderate and are harming people with their lack of knowledge and they're collectively playing a role in making everyone else dumber. i'm sorry i'm taking this frustration out in my answer to you, but i had to it somewhere. you don't need to see a doctor, and most of all you don't need any medication or way of fixing it because it is not a 'problem or some sort of 'disease'. it is simply a part of you and is really more common than you think. everyone talks to themself in some way, such as when they think to themselves or something of that nature, you just tend to express it out loud. don't take it seriously and don't think for a second somethign is wrong with you. there is NOTHING wrong with you.

hope i helped,

Seeing yourself in a movie/book or anything like that is not something to be worried about, we all do it at one point or another in our life. As for talking out loud and it helping you find answer instead of thinking it through...I would say it's not too different. The reason I say that is because you realize more of things, for some, when you are vocal about them. I am not a type of person that can just call out emotions as you described in your example, so I can't say too much on that part. I do say that you can use that as a talent if you thinking of trying to go into acting. Not sure if I was very helpful but I have been known to find myself in movies/books that I'm using as entertainment quite often so that I know is okay.

It sounds like it could be pschizophrenia maybe? Do you see these people when you talk to them? That is typically what that is. You should look into more. Including your parents on this could benefit you as well. They will not be mad at you. They will be happy you came to them with this and then you can be taken to your family doctor and be evaluated.
