    Do you? I notice a lot of people actually do. My mom and dad both talk to themselves casually.

    I have never talked to myself really. I don't think verbalizing "I'm gay" in the visor of a car counts. Or anything like that.

    I'm all about thinking. I can think full conversations. When it comes to verbalizing words, that's the hard part. That's why I say the typing version of me is more real.

    I find it really interesting when people do though.

    Yes, especially when making decisions or in an important situation. It makes me feel less alone. :slight_smile:

    I do, sometimes I need an expert opinion!

    Lol kidding, but I do talk to myself a lot. I'll talk to myself when making big decisions, when I'm about to do something I know I shouldn't (like buy unhealthy dinners when I've got food at home or watch a movie instead of doing laundry), or when I'm just puttering around my apartment cause I live alone and it's kinda lonely and quiet sometimes.

    Actually it's interesting, because in Canada I found there was this stigma of "if you talk to yourself you're crazy" but in Japan, everyone talks to themselves all the time. It's not weird here at all.

    Yes I do, but only when I feel like I'm acting/ thinking stupid. I need to verbalise to myself that I am being stupid and don't act/think like that.

    Sometimes, mostly just when I'm playing videogames. I tend to make offhand comments on what's happening, bitch out cheap ass motherfuckers when they kill me with some bullshit and the works

    Yup! Sometimes. Interestingly, if I'm alone and in a good mood I tend to talk to myself a lot... not like a conversation but just vocalizing what I am/will be doing. "Hmmm I think I'll do this now..."

    I actually have conversations with myself about how I have conversations with myself as if I'm talking to someone about me having conversations with myself.
    It becomes an infinite loop before long where I continue bringing myself back to reality and then slowly start to have a conversation with myself and then notice that and have a conversation with myself about how I have conversations with myself.

    Just one of my perks lol

    Rarely conversations. I sometimes ask myself questions aloud, though. I try to avoid doing it when others are around, because I don't want them to assume I'm speaking to them.

    I talk to myself, when I need to remember things or when I have to focus on different tasks.

    Sometimes. Nothing in-depth or anything. Usually something like 'What have I come in here for?' when I'm looking for something and I forget what it is.

    I definitely talk to myself, when I make decisions, occasionally I'll roleplay entire speeches to myself, in gaming I often talk to myself, if you met me in real life, you would think I am my own best friend.

    All the time. The sad part is that I carry out the other side of the conversation in my mind. It's my way of problem solving kinda like:

    Mouth: ok what do I need to do first?
    Brain: that over there
    Mouth: ok, but what's the first step?
    Brain: I think you should put this together first.
    *silence*
    Mouth: that's not gonna work because I'll mess this up
    Brain : Hmmm try this.
    Mouth: *with each movement* okay this here, that there, this goes like...S$%T
