I feel like I'm thinking out loud half the time. If I'm on public transport I'm sure the drunk guys can hear me thinking.Well maybe not all of them but with all the people in the world I'm sure at least some of them can hear ppl's thoughts.Every now and then I think "STOP LISTENING" and I lined my hats with aluminum to stop them but I don't think it's working.Can any of you hear other people's thoughts or am I just paranoid?
Do you think it's normal?

You are not paranoid. I can hear you thinking right now, and it's very distracting. You need to use a thicker brand of foil!
Well I can hear people thoughts too, its really annoying.. its like I have nothing to do except listening to mad people with stupid ideas..
GOD WHY YOU'RE DOING THIS ME?!
but it really depends on what I drink.. try vodka!
Quit thinking about sex.
I know what u mean i usually thin that ppl r staring at me so i always think "Stop reading my mind" then they usually turn the other way its weird either.
Feeling transparent is a symptom of a psychological condition called codependence. Having suffered from this for years, I know how self-conscious a person can feel, as if other people can see through me, even know in general about all my weaknesses, though, not specifically one's thoughts. Clearly, if one's thoughts are revealed on one's face, another person who might be observing you, could have an idea what you might be thinking. To believe, however, that other people can actually listen to one's thoughts is extreme, and could be signs of having some degree of paranoia. I personally would consult a psychiatrist if I had a continuing belief that other people could hear my thoughts. Good luck in finding an answer to this, so as to relieve your discomfort in going out among people. My sister, who suffers from paranoid personality disorder, believes she can read what people are thinking. Be well.
I have the EXACT same problem! its real though, because ive heard it before, and my friend has said to me things id been thinking about, and i got embarrassed. it kind of pisses me off though when people do it. im not sure how to stop it from happening though, i wish i could help
There is a large amount of nonverbal communication that goes on between humans. LARGE. How much of this is through facial expressions, body language, tone of voice, and telepathy, we can't say 100%. Regardless, you would do well to accept this truth and move on with your life rather than resist constantly and uselessly.

People always know what other people are thinking on some level.
I think other people can hear my thoughts too...but then again i swear i can hear other peoples thoughts. like i know what people are going to say right before they say them, but only with certain people. me and my boyfriend used to talk with out talking. I swear. we never told anyone. i could ask him what i was thinking and he was always dead on. vice/versa.
No, you're not normal. Go see a psychiatrist. And don't forget other things that can make you normal : rehab, gf/bf, friends, y'know, that kind of stuff.
I have the same problem. I seriously used to think I was crazy and the only one who thought about things like that. Thank God I'm not. =)
well I'm not going to lie, I have thought the same thing on the bus a couple of times, I thought "I wonder if someone on here can reads minds"..but I think you're a little too paranoid.
It happens to me quite a bit, and people I know can do it now as well. I am a bit obsessive compulsive so sometimes things repeat in my mind, which prob makes it easier, lol, but its very real.
I get paranoid about this at times too, but it doesn't affect my life to that extent :/ Foil in your hats??
