Is it normal that i like talking to myself a lot?

People say I'm pretty funny, and I laugh a lot. But being 'still in' puts me where I cannot thoroughly express my every emotion. So I talk to myself. I enjoy talking to myself more than talking to anybody, cos I actually do not and cannot judge myself or do those negative facial expressions. When with people or just my friend...I would think of something and say it, what they would usually say in response to that is "umh, yeah...that's kinda stupid...what you just said". So I choose to rather keep my thoughts to myself cos saying them around people and them thinking everything I say is stupid is kinda discouraging. And no, I'm not dim-witted...I'm actually quick-witted. The way I think and particulary the thoughts themselves, are just not understood by most people...and that's disappointing.

    Yeah, it's normal. I talk to myself sometimes too. But if you're actually having a conversation with yourself or making jokes and then replying to yourself "Good one! Let me tell you a joke" then that is a little odd. I knew a guy with schizophrenia and a split personality when I was in hospital and I always used to hear him have a conversation with himself when he was walking back and forth through the corridor. I wouldn't say that was normal because it was a bit to the extreme but he couldn't help it but just talking to yourself every now and then like "Haha, that was good" or "Work you piece of crap!" not the best example but you get my point, it's normal.

    It's ok to talk to yourself.. I think it's when you answer yourself you need to speak with someone about this.
