Is it normal to fantasize out loud when alone?

I have a habit of, when alone, fantasizing a lot. I even end up talking a bit when doing so. Think of it kinda like a one person mental role play. I obviously know the "people" I'm talking to aren't real, just characters and it's just something I do to pass the time and sometimes work through things that are bothering me. But I can't help but wonder if this is something others do too and just don't admit or if my health induced isolation (my health leaves me bed bound a lot and makes it hard to get out so most my life is spent alone due to it) is starting to really effect my mental stability and this internal role play thing I'm doing is a sign of that mental degradation. So is this kinda normal or is it a sign I'm starting to go crazy from years of increasing isolation?

      I went trough some pretty horrid abuse as a kid so my back, hips, knees and most my other joints are badly damaged. As if that isn't bad enough I also have really bad fibromyalgia and crohn's disease that's always acting up. Due to the head injuries I sustained as a kid I'm half blind and have really bad vertigo every time I stand up. And those are just the more major issues, I have a lot of different health issues and injuries and it all adds up. Really wish health problems would check to see who else is at the party before inviting themselves in -_-

    You said it's to pass the time. Therefore I think it's normal. But if you're still concerned, you should talk to a psychologist or something.

    I do it at times myself, but if it really worries you, talk with a professional.
