I talk to myself when I'm by myself. Is it normal? Do any of you do it as well?

    Normal. I'm a pretty quiet and shy person so once in a while I will talk to myself so I don't forget how to talk.

    When I'm having a serious meltdown or really need to think something important through sometimes I'll start thinking outloud yea. Have a mini conversation with myself or make a statement. I don't think its that weird. Plus I haven't be able to really talk to too many people today so it was sort of a release.

    Does that sound like you?

    I usually talk as if I'm talking to someone, but no one's really there. I just come up with this scenario in my head where I'm surrounded with a bunch of cool people who always laugh at my jokes. That may be bringing it too far but that's just how my brain functions when I'm alone, which is most of the time.

    I talk to myself quite a bit. I think it is good for me.

    I have better conversations with myself than with anyone else :)

    I actually do this, and the stranger thing is, even though no one else can hear me I am very embarrassed by it. But I think it's a normal thing that anyone does like writing, or singing or dancing. But I've wondered this same thing. BTW This is a great question for this forum.

    I do this from time to time and usually talk about family members or friends who have done something wrong as if voicing it to no one is going to fix things. For me, its got nothing to do with being sad but is similar to those diaries people write that always get read by people who don't need to read it. At least this way, people who aren't around can't hear me and it makes me feel better or confirm whatever I needed to get out at the moment.

    Yep it's normal. Helps to clear your head, organize your thoughts, and remember things easier.

    Sometimes when I'm alone, I do as well. Sometimes helps me with things to say them out loud. Or if i'm camping solo, helps ease tension. So normal.

    I talk to myself at times, but not because I'm lonely or sad, mostly when I do it's either I'm thinking out loud (I have a minor problem of doing this a lot) or talking to my cat (if you call talking to your cat, talking to yourself) and not in a weird way either, a good example is like when I'll ask her why she tipped over her sandbox and such things like that. I won't lie though I'm usually a quiet guy and usually only talk when being talked to or starting a conversation myself (which I don't do too often on account that I usually keep myself very busy and active).
