Do you ever talk to yourself? Who doesn't? i talked to myself and i am not embarrassed about it. For me I always talk to myself when I am gathering my thoughts, thinking too much or even when i am worrying... When I am awake at night and can not sleep... I normally talk to myself write my thoughts down... And even when i am making a decision, i tend to talk to myself convincing myself that it is right or wrong, good or bad... It's not bad to talk to yourself and gather your thoughts and write it now in your journal or diary... it will released all your worries and stressed away... How about you do you ever talk to yourself? Why?

Yes, I do talk to myself. It's just something that I do. Sometimes, it helps me to focus. Sometimes, I just need it to get some stress out, or something. It's just something that I do.

I don't, but my mother did. Her explanation was that she had to talk to a sensible person at least once a day. :-)

I had an embarrassing experience about self-talk that just happened some months ago. Once when I was involved in the design of an electrical system and I had very intense analysis of the plan, I blurted out and talked myself out loudly. I didn't realize that some people were hearing me. They may be thinking I am going crazy. But I could not help myself to talk out loud. My brain was so full of data and information, I had to speak them out to clear everything. But when I was made aware of the situation, I controlled myself and never did it again.

I talk to myself to get my thoughts together and think out loud. I find it easier that way.
