Talking to myself
For as long as I could remember, I've talked to myself (out loud). This may sound strange, but sometimes when I'm alone, I start having random conversations or debates. At times, I'll just start stating my thoughts out loud. I never, ever do these things around other people. In fact, no body would ever guess that I actually do talk to myself. I stop myself sometimes and wonder why I have such a habit.
I know that I'm a stable person, but I feel so
alone sometimes that I just start talking when no body is around. The thing is, that in the back of my mind, i understand what I am doing. I can bring myself to stop; it's not as though I have no control over this.
I feel like this is abnormal...but I really don't know. Is there anyone who has a similar habit? Or, is this even normal? Please only comment if you know about this. thanks

I talk to myself all the time. Even in public. I tend to talk to myself when I'm trying to concentrate... Because talking to myself allows me to better articulate thoughts that I have not said aloud before.
No one I've met thinks this habit is abnormal. Most of the time, when someone asks, "Hey... Who are you talking to?" And I reply, "Oh... I was just talking to myself." That's when they usually confess, "Yeah... I do that too. All the time."
I don't think you have to worry about talking to yourself. If you're going to worry... Worry about the voices you keep hearing. Just kidding. ;)

I think that this is one of those things that almost everybody does, but nobody admits to. There's nothing wrong with vocalizing your thoughts in order to fill silence, as long as you're alone (if you do it in crowded rooms, people will be annoyed and have reason to doubt your sanity).
I have heard that this habit can be one of the signs of Attention Deficit Disorder, but if you don't have any other symptoms, it's probably just something you do - and as long as it's not causing problems in your life, it's harmless. So go ahead and talk to yourself. At least you'll know your audience is listening.

I acutally kind of get where your coming from.Im a sane personI think everyone pretty much talks to themselves they just dont admit it.I talk to myself sometimes like if i cant find something,or im upset about something or with someone ill say "why did she do that to me?" if one of my friends got me upset.I do it especially if i said something really stupid then ill say to myself "omg why did i say that?!that was soo stupid!" but i never talk to myself in public because that would just be crazy,i just do it when im alone,but i dont do it that much.So i can relate to you.Its kind of my habit too.I think its normal i mean hey you need to get your thoughts and problems together right? lol if you need anymore advice just leave one in my inbox ;]

i do exactly the same thing, and if you asked other people who weren't embarassed to admit it USUALLY they also do the same thing. it is normal, you're just thinking out loud. some people need noise and can't concentrate in a quiet environment, when other people are just bored and feel like talking. when i'm home alone i hate silence, so you can always catch me singing or talking out loud.
