How many people talk to themselves?

[Bluetwo]

I do it all the time. I'm a great comedian!
Great motivational speaker!
Get me motivated for the day!
Hooray!
And if I have say something bad about someone after work....tell it to the bathroom mirror.

Sometimes I feel like Judy Tenuta...

Keeps me out of trouble when I vent my feelings down the toilet.

I suppose everybody talks to themselves in their mind but not many talk out loud to themselves.

That's funny, I know what you mean. I have a co worker with one of those. She usually comes to work before me, but sometimes she is late and I see her walking down the hall talking to herself. Of course, she's just on the phone.

I only talk to myself when I'm alone.

LOL at Bluetooth users reference.  I'm always confused as to whether those people are talking to themselves or on a phone.

[Bluetwo]

Yeah...I get in those dark moods too.

Do you quote Shakespeare too?
It appears old Will had a good grasp of madness and its peppered throughout his tradegies. Do you think Will was bipolar or a good plagiarist?

I have to be really bent out of shape to be in the most foulist moods.
This what I did in my bathroom when my children crossed me.

We can talk to ourselves in the public now. Look at those Bluetooth users! They carry on a conversation right in the street and giving the street people competition.

Now, I talk to myself in the car especially with the ASININNE  things I hear on the radio with local news. We have many revenue problems with City of Chicago. If the city government can't fix the problem they raise our taxes to create more problems they can't fix.

I get into a argument with the asininne counsel members who are interviewed by our local radio host. They have so many big plans for our city to become more financially irresponsible. Our mayor is hot for the Olympics which will cause our taxes to go up but he is denial that this will happen.

You don't need to be off the crazy train to see the insanity of our politicans.
I'm sick of them!


And mean awhile other drivers think I'm on my speaker phone talking to my children or husband. I get a nod of approval.
Other drivers can be very polite and give you the right of way.



Have a wonderful and safe 4th!

I talk to myself alot too. Especially when I'm in one of my "b!tch mode" moods, which is quite often. LOL. I will go on and on about how everyone else is so effed up and crazy, all while I'm acting that way. LMAO! I did it all the time when I was younger. I remember riding my bike and talking to myself in the 2nd person. Then I remember thinking, "am I the only one who does this?"

[paranoid_cataclysm]

I used to do it when I was younger where I'd look to the side like I was actually looking at someone and talk like someone was there listening I think partly because I had no one my age to talk to.

[Delusion]

I have always done it a lot and im glad to hear others do it to motivate themselves as well as i think thats my primary reason even if im not always aware im talking to myself things like 'get a grip' or 'your such a ******* mess' i generally blurt out a lot when im stressed or drunk.

[LetaB]

My mother did it - she's a nervous nelly too - but just making mental notes. I think my problem with it is much darker - I have such severe negative emotions that I just blurt things out like "Just kill me" and "I want to die". This is not good with two teen age boys in the house and I usually do it when I think I'm alone but it's another thing I loath about myself.

[jimgreg]

i live alone. so yes  im in there also....alot of people do this  my dad dioes it..and useto doi it alot when he was younger..

[Bluetwo]

It all started as a kid.
I think my mother is bp and I had to keep my opinions to myself.
There were NO problems in our household.
She's a Nervous Nelly.
So our home life had to be perfect.
Too much perfection can cause side effects.


I know talking to myself is a compulsion.
I knew it wasn't normal to communicate aloud to yourself but I needed to vent.
And who is the best person around to listen...yourself...and maybe Jesus.
I needed ME space.

[hell1971]

Im another one, I know when im getting sick if I start becoming aware of it constantly other times i seem to accept it as a natural friend in my head and I dont really notice it but if i start to become aware then im usually hypomanic or depressed.

[Xila31]

Yeah. Talking to myself gets rid of anxiety. But now I'm starting to think its a compulsion. I don't know, good or bad? Good because I can vent. Bad because I can lose track of time and wander around muttering to myself.

[Venora Moonwind]

Count me in . I especially do it when I am tired and need to keep my focus
