I do lol, I don't know if it's creepy but I do especially when I'm bored and especially when I'm on the toilet. It is something that I do all the time, it became a habit, am i getting insane? I just can't seem to help it, when I start to sit on the bowl it's so uncomfortable for me to just sit there and poop opps sorry! I always talk to myself. Do you guys do that too?

Hi myempress! Yeah. I talk to myself especially when I'm alone. I treat myself as my company. lol. Get that right? I talk to myself when making decisions, when I'm stressed out, when sorting some hard problems, etc. Most of the time, I talk to myself in my mind. When I'm alone or what, I speak out loud like some other person.When I talk to myself I speak in 3rd person -- as if I'm somebody -- I usually even say my name.
I do had thought I'm insane. But I'm enlightened when I learned from something/someone/myself that It is a sort of therapy. It turns out that you have some company out there, which is good especially at hard times and when alone.
I'm considering it as a good habit. That is okay. Happy MyLotting and have a good day!

I can't go through an hour or day without talking to myself like I'm two people having a conversation. I've been doing that since I was really little and I'm now 25 soon to be 26. I think it's completely normal, personally when I'm alone. I do think it's too quiet if I just think in my head. Everyone talk to their selves, even if they do it only once in a day.

Yes, I always talk with myself. I even face the mirror when talking to myself. I also use that to improve my charisma skill. lol. haha!
It's okay for me to talk in my head. Most of the time, I do that. Well, I'm some silent type person.
Have a good day!

Hello myempress.
Yeah I do talk a lot to myself whenever possible. This is my way of thinking I guess. Sometimes I have to talk orally to myself so that I could understand myself much better but of course when I'm just alone because others might really think that I'm insane. I believe most people do that too. It's just funny that we do the same inside the toilet.

I know, it's really funny. I do same thing that I have to make sure that there's no other people around me or else they would think that I am going nuts lol. I do that to relieve stress, to release emotions and create ideas. It could be genius to do that lol.

I usually talk to myself silently most of the time especially when I walk alone from office to my home. I take time to think of what I could have done for a particular situation, think of different possibilities and just tell myself over and over again positive thoughts and good decisions I've made. There are a few times where I also get to talk to myself in front of the mirror, saying how happy I am or how stupid I felt about a certain situation I might have encountered. I think there's nothing wrong with talking to yourself as long as you do it in a non-crazy way.

Sometimes it seems to be the only way of keeping sane. I suppose you heard about the person defending himself for talking himself, saying "I like to be able to talk with one intelligent person once in a while". I think most people talk to themselves at some point.

Yes i do to. Starting to even think that is actually a good thing. Reasoning being that it keeps you more sane than sitting in silence, fortunately there is usualy something else to do to take your mind off things.
I even rant if I watch something that annoys me. Craziness or genius, or both????

That could be both lol. Sitting in silence will drive me insane, I'd rather talk to myself I may find something useful from it.
