Do you talk to yourself? I do, and the mrs has caught me quite a few times and just laughs. I find it soothing, relaxing and it helps me correlate plans and ideas. I know i'm not crazy, well maybe a bit :p

So ocuk'ers, have you ever had that embarrassing moment where you've been asked "who are you talking to" and you mutter "nobody" :o I just laugh it off and say"i'm talking to myself"
 
I sometimes go through scenarios out loud, almost like a personal role play for a situation I might be involved in at work later that day or something.

Normally it's in the shower (my thinking time!), wife has caught me a few times and commented along the lines of "wtf", but they've not locked me up yet.
 
I certainly do.

OH is used to it now though, but still finds it amusing at times.

I tend to do this when:

  • I'm gaming.
    When I enter a room and cannot remember why "what the hell was I looking for?" sort of thing.
    If I am trying to figure something out/planning.

Already know I am a bit crazy so meh !
 
Yes, all the time.

I also chat to the cats. I live on my own, so at weekends if i'm not doing anything, I can often go 24 hours or more without physically using my voice as I don't see anyone to talk to.
 
Yup but normally only when nobody is around, say if I'm in my car. More often when I am sad or annoyed than happy.
 
Maybe ill talk to an object, or voice my frustration at it, but i don't often talk to my actual self out loud. In my head, probably, depending on which voice is in charge that day.
 
Ive noticed I do this more and more lately. Its like my internal monologue has fought its way out! I also have full blown conversations with the cats but they never give me good advice! My bf has always thought I'm crazy so he doesn't mind.

Me too. I also talk to the cats which really annoys my wife.
 
Yes, sometimes, it helps me focus and collect my thoughts otherwise i'm all over the place.

It freaks the OH out sometimes :D
 
When you say talk to the cats, do you mean properly talk to them about things or talking like you do to an animal?
If that makes sense...
 
I sometimes verbalise my thoughts when I'm doing something but I don't have full blown conversations with myself.
