Do You Talk To Yourself?

[JaniceSW]

I have noticed that when there is something on my mind, I actually start a conversation sometimes where I try to work the issue out.  The other day I was outside doing some work and realized when my neighbor came out that I had been talking aloud about a problem.  You know, a little here, a little there.  It was a bit embarrassing, and then I thought, "Who really cares?"
And yes, I have answered myself.  Not crazy yet though, at least I don't think so.  Hum-m-m-m, I may have to have a small conversation aloud about that!!!!!

I don't talk to myself, but my husband talks to himself all the time. He works out his problems verbally aloud just like you do. It never bothers him though, when I come near him and notice him talking to himself.

I do this a lot of times. Sometimes my wife asks me" who are you talking to?". I am not sure if it is normal or not.

I talk to myself and have been for years. More when I'm stressed.

Yes I do, I talk the pros and cons in my head and it really works, I do yell to drivers and talk to myself when I am really upset

Well yeah.  Sometimes I need expert advice and I have found this is the only way to get it.  : )

I talk to my self all the time.  I am the only one to give me an honest opinion.

Now THAT'S a good answer. I totally agree with this point of view. 

I think it is totally normal to talk to oneself and even to answer back, especially if you're
not around other people much. 

Besides, what exactly is normal?

Sometimes i do but not on purpose and usually not out loud, but i definitively do when i am trying to prepare for an upcoming test it just helps me.

[lostmaeblleshire]

I do this sometimes when there's no one around, or I'll talk to my cats, haha.

[jkhanson]

Sure I do....sometimes it is out loud when I am alone; but mostly, I talk to myself silently.
