This I often do.. it may be simply due to being socially isolated and unable to communicate things that are on my mind

Shouted a couple of things about how much I love where I live while driving home tonight, improvised a lyric about my dire academic state while playing guitar the other night which set me straight, but mostly I just curse to myself about how slow this computer is.

I don't "talk to myself".
I soliloquy.

I'm classy like that.

I do that ALL the time. I have to be careful to not be overheard so that people don't think I'm hallucinating or something. I'm actually trying to curb this habit.

So your thoughts are never word-based?!?!?

How would you describe your thoughts?


Mainly just echolalia (mostly from fiction) in my head and images (moving and still).

I tend to carry on whole conversations with myself, when alone.

I talk to myself all the time however mostly when I'm alone, I think its something that just about anybody and everybody dose as a method of thought, I mean after all we talk to ourself's in our heads to.
