Do you talk to yourself?

Do you talk to yourself?

How do you find it?

Would you try it?

(I've been talking to myself for as long as I can remember, I find it a good way to vocalize problems and look at them from different angles while they're "out there" instead of internalizing things. The brain is incredibly adept at puzzle-solving, but sometimes it's better to remove the problem from the internal, I've found).

I talk to myself quite often and the co-workers don't appreciate it all that much.

I find it relaxing and helpful when I am stuck with a problem that needs to be said and answered.

[Gambit]

I do in some ways maby not exactly the same - I find that when I play some games I do two things at the same time, I will take Froza2 as an example I would be doing a race and while I am busy driving be thinking of the days events and mulling over some issues, but I assume most are like that right? ... right?

I think Miktar is getting at the actual vocal talking to yourself where when you do it you get the weird looks from everybody and they think you are mad.

[dammit]

Its impossible not to talk to yourself. Very few people in the world are capable of actually stopping their own thought flow through deep meditation techniques. Even then, those people are communication peace and tranquility to themselves.

Anyway, all the thoughts you have are energy which translates into creating your reality. So while you might think you can hide your thoughts from others, what you think is what you create in your life...without you ever opening your mouth.

Oh well, in that case, then no. I find i'm more creative when the thoughts are in my head rather than out loud as I'm more critical of them once they're in the world

[brazed]

Constantly.

[Squid]

Yeah, I tend to wander atound in circles muttering to myself when trying to find a solution to a problem.

[Nimue]

I tend to ask myself questions, aloud. Co-workers usually don't know if they should answer or not (hehe, they are so funny)

[wisp]

all the time , start to worry when i start to argue with myself though
feel like Gollum sometimes:)

[Squirly]

I talk to myself. If I need to have an intelligent conversation.

Problem is when your lips start moving though... :|

[Cyberninja]

Yep. Especially when I'm solving a problem or making a decision about something. Get more than a few looks.

[sektor]

Most people do.

Change the topic to: Do you talk to yourself in the mirror?
My boss does this before going into a meeting... very funny sometimes.

[kHayne]

Indeed I do. Mostly when stressed and/or trying to self-motivate.

[Chippit]

I talk to myself almost constantly. It's usually what I do when I'm trying to work around a problem or anticipate a future conversation.
But that's not to say I don't talk to myself idly either.

[GeometriX]

I absolutely talk to myself. I find driving time is usually the best opportunity for an in-depth conversation, but I'll often just idly mumble to myself during all sorts of occasions.

[edg3]

I talk to myself... Alot... Esspecially when Im bored, I'll talk to myself like I would in any casual conversation. But as little aloud as possible.

[echo]

Alot. Most of the time its future conversations, but usually is I discuss my pva with myself.

[Gldm]

Yes, and I'm smart enough that I can usually get classified as "eccentric" rather than "crazy". Though my goal is to eventually be rich enough to move up to "iconoclastic."

[Plan 9]

I talk to myself when I try finding solutions or when I measure two ideas of mine up against each other to differentiate.
