Yeah, in order to write anything properly or understand something new I'll pace around the house. It helps me digest the information, I remember conversations better than facts, even imaginary ones.

I tend to have comvesation with my self when I am alone, in my room or on the bus. I tend to talk about the thing im currently obsessed with and have in depth conversations with my self. I don't think it would be considered a conversation more telling my self things. I find talking to my self is a helpful method of thinking.

i do. about an array of very intresting topics, i hate getting caught talking to myself though once i was having this conversation on this trail by a school and i was all deep in it. yelling, arms moving violently as i talked to myself when low and behold i started to look around and some dude was just sitting under a tree watching me the whole time! oh man i wanted to die, it was so embarressing! :lol:

you think that would stop me from talking to myself, but it didnt :jester:

I talk to myself all the time... I'd always imagine myself doing an imaginary blog on a good day talking about my life story and the best of it, normally in the bathroom or alone in a room :lol:

On a bad day, I sometimes have an argument with myself about what happened during any argument that I've had... Mimmicing the person who I've had an argument and strangely debate and pretend to protest... Wow i'm strange :lol:

I've also pretended that I'm a comedian and somehow cracking myself up talking to myself... The only thing to do is watch imaginary comedy staring superboyian :mrgreen:

The funny thing is that sometimes, I get caught talking to myself :lol: and I do it alot when I'm daydreaming, lol

That's what I can share for now. :lol:

Not only do I do that, but I have imaginary conversations involving real people - sort of a role playing thing. It doesn't achieve much though.

a few minutes ago i thought of an ODD response to someone who is talking to themself, so i swithched this computer back on and i would like to write what i would like to say to someone i do not think much of.....

"you must be a charitable person to talk to yourself, because if i were you, i would not find myself worthy of addressing."

sorry.
now i am switching the computer off and going to bed.

If someone walked up to me and said that, I would happily kick their @$$.

I think it is ok to talk to yourself. If you are talking and someone is listening, either an other person or yourself, it is good.
If however, you are talking to yourself and not listening -- then perhaps it is a problem.

That's one benefit of having pets. You can talk to yourself but seem "normal". Just add the name of your pet to the end of your sentences every now and then.

I sometimes talk to myself when alone at home, often in a variety of British accents that I picked up travelling and watching BBC documentaries. A bit odd I know.

I voice out thoughts in my head if that counts.

Plus I often think "I should have said this instead of that" and the words I "should have said" often come out hours later without warning.

The most embarrassing thing though is that I laugh at seemingly random times. Just today I was sitting in my office with a couple of my coworkers. There was a lull in their conversation and my mind wandered to something funny that someone had said weeks ago. I laughed right there on the spot and then had to awkwardly explain why i was laughing. :oops:

I do both of these... but I really hate the laughing thing! Cause sometimes everyone is quiet and I just go off on this explosive laughter and sometimes scare people... and THEN have to explain what planet my brain was visiting at that particular moment.

That happens to me, I never smile or laugh when people think I should but when something morbid is on (funerals, bad news) I always think of something amusing and laugh or smirk. Or I don't think of anything and I still smile at the wrong time.

Everyone does that. Even God talks to himself. When God said "Let there be light" who was he talking to? He hadn't created the world yet.

i was tired of listening to my eternal prattle.

i was so offended by that sentiment that i never spoke to myself again,
