Is that really THAT weird? I was just wondering if anyone else does it. Not always, but sometimes when I have a thought and I'm alone or not occupied, I feel a compulsive need to explain every aspect of it in my own head, like I'm talking to someone else. Other times, I will think back on what someone said and in my head have a conversation with them, and pick different things to say than I really did at the time to see different outcomes. I used to do it out loud when I was younger, but then again everyone thought I was mental when I was little. An example of my train of thought in one of these times would be this.. 'Man, school sucks. Yeah I know eh. It's old and boring the minute you get into it. That doesn't make sense but it does because it's metaphorical, which means that it doesn't make sense in a literal way but differently. I'm not sure how differently. There's a word but I don't know it. Don't you hate when you don't know a word? Yeah I do. Like that time I was with Jen and she said something and I said something back but forgot to put in half the words. Haaha that's fucked up.' However, that paragraph WAS kind of forced, but I think you get the idea.
I don't think there's anything wrong with you, my thought process is weird like that, and sometimes I ask myself questions, but I don't think it's that weird at all, no.
i talk to everything - myself, others, animals, plants, inanimate objects, etc. everything has consciousness, for it is all an extension of the universal mind - some of the conversations we have with ourselves are simply us conversing with our Higher Self, or Higher Mind .....ultimately, we do have all the answers if we know how to access them - talking to ourselves can sometimes allow those insights to trickle in
Maybe your mistaking your own thought process for conversations with yourself. It seems like your just thinking it out like a conversation. It might actually be better to think your way as long as the opposite side helps you along. Now that I just did a tiny thought dialogue in my head, you aint crazy, thats just natural.
I also talk to everything. Literally anything. You'd be weird if you didn't talk to yourself sometimes. It'd mean you're not comfortable with being alone
Talking with your-self, is actually impossible. You only imagine that you are talking with your-self and I can prove it with logic. Assuming that what you ARE, is something that you are not seperate from. Ie. Chocolate bars ARE cocoa mass, cocoa butter and sugar and not JUST cocoa and JUST sugar. And assuming that if you ARE what you ARE, and that is Who you are, at any given time(we change) then you cannot talk to yourself, because you are not Seperate from yourself, beause remember who and what you ARE, is what you cannot be seperate from. Why does this prove that you cannot talk with yourself and that you just are imagining this? It gets tricky, a metaphor will best describe this. Hypothetically speaking, if I swong my fist towards my face, am I the person beating or being beaten? Why do I ask this question? Well, when you talk to someone, you exchange something with them, just like when you FIGHT someone, you exchange blows of fists and kicks. When you talk to someone you exchange thoughts, through sensory impressions such as sounds(verbal words) and diagrams(written words). So what does this all mean? In order to an exchange to occur and a conversation to begin, there first has to be a sender and receiver. Presently, you are the reciever and I am the sender. IF we were both recieving we would not be able to converse. Now think about this, if what and WHO you ARE, is not seperated into a 'sender and a reciever', because you are only ONE individual, not two, then how is it that you converse, when to converse there has to exist a sender and a reciever? In fact, you can prove that you are ONE individual, ASK yourself a question - and recieve it...hahah. In order to send you have to have someone who receives and in order to reciever you have to have someone who sends....so who's doing the sending and whos doing the recieving, YOU or YOURSELF.... The answer is through imagination. Because through imagination anything is possible and self-verifiable.
I've also have been doing it since child and still doing, but only inside my head. It sounds like you have Asperger syndrome, you should check other characteristics of it so maybe you really have it. I myself have Asperger syndrome and ADD. I always have felt that I'm different than "normal" people, they have other interest than I do and act different. But Asperger syndrome can be strength if "used" correctly. ADD tho' is in no way strength, it only hinders me and my life, I can't get anythinf done, dont have motivation or conceration to do anything. Only things that makes me normal are stimulants, like amphetamine and methylphenidate, altho I don't use any medications right now, I should to if I want to fit to this unnormal and sick society.
In my humble opinion it's totally normal. no it isn't The problem might arise if you catch yourself getting into a heated argument with yourself. oh, aren't we smart now I don't see any reason to be concerned because lots of people do it. oh yeah??? name one! Shush, you! don't shush me bitch or i'll kidnap your subconscious and make you say things that'll get your ass committed! Anyway, nothing to worry about except those nice men in white coats
Whenever somebody says something like "Yeah, you'd have to be crazy NOT to talk to yourself sometimes" I think to myself, "Oh shit". Besides, I hate myself. I don't talk to people I hate
So long as you know there's no one actually there, so long as you haven't deluded yourself into thinking it's a real conversation, then you're not crazy. It's just a thought process. It might look crazy, and people might think you're crazy if they caught you doing it. But as long as you're aware what's really going on, then you haven't lost it. :hat:
I do it also, but I recognized it arises only from my bad feelings. It´s something like mental need to have out my worries or qualms.
if anyone talks to themselfs... THEIR NUTS! BIG DEAL! we're all nuts to some degree. talking to yourself is very, very, very, small time being nuts though; so don't sweat it.
I talk to myself but I don't do it in my head. I do it out loud. My thought patterns are different though. I don't say to myself something like, "school sucked. Yeah I know". Instead, I'll act like I'm talking to someone but without feedback from them. For example, lets say I get a good job offer. I'll be by myself but so eager to tell someone. Its like I need to tell someone immediately but can't. So I'll tell myself something I already know. I'll be like, "Guess what! I got a job offer for blalbalblbalblabla. I'm so excited". The other day i got caught. My boyfriend thought it was really weird. I don't think it was weird at all. I've had much weirder conversations. This was nothing. But he heard me talking in our room. I had music going so I didn't hear him come home from work. He thought I was talking to someone as he heard me clear in the other room. I was doing my hair and getting ready for work but at the time, I was talking to myself about work. I was saying something along the lines of this. "Work was pretty good yesterday. Lets see.... how much did I make? I had 4 customers in an hour. 1 customer spent $35. The next was only $10. The next was $20 and the last one was $35. I made hundred dollars in an hour. Yesterday was pretty successful". I'm a webcam model btw. Anyway, he heard me say that. i was talking to myself but then I walk out of the room and was started when I saw him in the living room. I didn't hear him come home. What was funny is that I was completely naked. I was walking into the other room to get an outfit to wear for work. He saw me naked and heard me talking so he went into our room real quick then asked who was here. At first he thought someone was in the house and i was all naked. Afraid I might be getting naughty while he was at work. Then he thought I was strange for talking to myself. I don't even think what i was saying was that crazy.
I HAVE to talk to myself or else I feel like I am going crazy. Literally. Almost all the time when I am alone. =/ Is this weird? I find when I stop talking to myself for a long time I trip out a little and feel like I am not myself. I've been talking to myself ever since I was little =) I don't know why. I don't have any siblings.
