How embarrassing ?

I talk to myself all the time..no one else understands me.

I talk to myself all the time. If someone happens to overhear me, I'm not in the least bit bothered.

If you wear a mask you can even talk to yourself in shops.

I do discuss some TV shows with myself but that is the only time.

I always talk to myself ... I never shut up. Quite good company for myself, really haha. Occaisionally people do notice, but I have stopped caring. Goodness knows what I'll be like when I actually hit my older years!!!

One of my exes phoned me, but didn't hang up properly.
I heard him talking in a Bruce Lee type voice, running into his living room and saying "Aaahaa!" then doing his Bruce type kicks and karate chops on on an imaginary person.

I find the good thing about talking to oneself is that you always win in an argument

That's me eccentric so I have been told but I don't give a monkeys uncle. My attitude is take me as you find me or not at all I talk sense even to myself ?

I always talk to myself the worrying part is I answer too ?

Poppyjo - you are not alone .
I talk to myself a lot .
I'm also conscious of turning into the crazy old lady, who talks to everyone at the busstop , on the bus and in shops.
When I lived in a flat and was cleaning the kitchen I did a very enthusiastic dance with a broom to Tamla Motown in full view of the astonished new neighbours ,who were having a party !

I do talk to myself but I really need to find someone sensible to talk to.

I have my best conversations with myself?

I often talk to myself. The time to worry is when you start arguing with yourself.

This might make you feel a bit better!
I wasn’t talking to myself, but to our dog - the usual (for me) extreme baby talk, ‘Mummy love oo!’ etc. Out loud!

I was in a very well wooded part of the nearby park, and (as I thought) completely alone. That is, until I heard the sound of extreme mirth - there were two young blokes up a big tree, absolutely wetting themselves laughing!

Talking to yourself is fine, tad worried about the ??

Animals are the very best listeners Daisymae. You can tell them everything and they’ll never repeat it or argue with you.?

I was once sat in my car in a traffic jam on the way to work (a long time before mobile phones ? ) and decided to practice my discussion points for the conference I was going to, as I was a bit nervous. Ten minutes later in full flow I glanced at the car alongside me and the four young men in it were killing themselves laughing, each imitating my head and hand movements and mouthing a lot of nothings, heads pressed up against the windows in my direction.

My 37 year old son talks to himself, especially when he's in the shower, so it's not an old age thing.

I talk to Wiggy out loud all the time. Or if she's in a bad mood, to myself instead.

Poppyjo's cat was imaginary though!

I talk to myself all the time and always agree with myself!

This is hilarious. I’ve laughed out loud several times - youths in trees, imaginary cats, practising for a conference in the car. I’m feeling reassured that I’m completely normal. Perhaps we should be worried about those who don’t talk to themselves?

I often talk to myself when I am marshalling my thoughts to explain something on the phone or in writing. I dont give a dogs damn if people think I am that crazy deaf old bat at number X who talks to herself.

I have told quite a few people I have invisible aliens living in my house!

It means that people are less likely to bother me, wanting favours etc. Im not in the least deaf and only wear glasses for close work. However being selectively deaf, short sighted and eccentric can have many advantages.

I’ve always talked to myself. The strange thing is...since my husband has semi retired, he’s often appeared in the room I’m in....chatting away to myself, because I’ve forgotten he’s at home!

He wants to know who I’m talking to. It’s strange, because when I actually am talking to him....he ignores me.
