I make up characters in my head... and errr....??

This has been going on since I can remember (literally... since I was like 6). What I do is just make up a random person. Maybe a celeberty, a random person on the street, anyone pretty much. Then for the next couple weeks thats what I'm thinking about half the time. "Oh, yeah, she went to college, but only for a little bit..." Just random sh*t. I don't know WHY I do this. It's weird. Help.

    I actually make up stories about fake people and develop alternate universes for those stories. Perfectly normal for me.

  • I do that too. It helps me when I don't have the energy to deal with real people but I want interaction...I just make up characters.

    I make up stories in my head about different characters all the time. That's why I'm never bored. It's healthy to have an active imagination.

    I do the same thing. It actually helps me sleep because then my mind isn't focused on all the crap that goes on in my life. I think it's fun and as long as it doesn't interfere with your normal life, then go right ahead. Maybe you can right some of it down and make complete stories out of your characters

    I do this too, but in my head I have them do totally funny/ goofy things like climbing light posts and beating each other up. And doing three stooges stuff and cartoony things

    Do not worry at all, you are NOT alone on this subject. I do this too... way more than I like to admit.

    It has been happening to me for as long as I can remember. Random characters will just pop into my mind and then from there I will develop an entire cast of people- complete with their appearance, personality, eye color, and even what car they own. Then they will be circling around my brain pretty much all the time until I think of some other characters that are more 'interesting' to me at that point.

    I guess its kind of my way of 'escaping' reality and going someplace where the world is exactly how I want it to be.

    It is a rather strange thing to do, I admit, but on the bright side- at least it helps settle boredom.

    Hey, you should write. That's a thought.
    I do things like this, but not at all to this extent.

    I do this all the time and have even started to write stories about my characters. I actually had a few of my friends believing one of my character was a real person.

    ^I do the exact same thing. I can't sleep unless I make a story in my head about a fake person.
