does talking to yourself make you crazy?
A word for talking to yourself is, ‘thinking’. No, thinking does not make you insane, it actually improves your life.
not if you’re having intelligent conversations with yourself

i actually talk to myself and argue with myself too
I talk to myself alot, when I get upset, angry or stressed, I think it is a normal habit to have, although sometimes a little awkward when there are people around and you didn’t realize lol.
As for the voices I would recommend getting that checked out, there should only be one voice and that is yourown.
lol i actually have two in my head and they argue all the time-kinda like the devil and angel on the shoulder scenario. one is the voice of reason, the other the voice of insanity
im gonna change my avatar be bak soon
wat do you think? pretty wierd huh?
Haven’t you ever seen those cartoons where there is a devil on one shoulder and an angel no the other? Medicine is seriously getting incredibly retarted anymore. The drug companies will make a pill for anything they can convince people isn’t normal.
sometimes i yell at myself and have a laugh or 2
i talk to myself, but its usually not very in depth.
I talk out loud to myself quite regularly. Sometimes it helps me to put things in perspective. Or admit to things. Or accept things I don’t want to have to accept.
im leaving now so uh bye bye!
I agree with LazyDaze… most of us talk to ourselves… but those other voices are not good, especially if they are telling you to do things!!
i talk outloud to myself sometimes lol- it helps me remember things
no way! i deff talk to myself all the time! Theres nothing wrong with it. It helps me to get organized and get my mind straight. No worries.
I used to talk to myself a lot, but lately I haven’t been doing that because two nights ago there was a voice inside of me, I’m gonna call it my intuition and told me to be silent and breath deeply. As I did that, I started to notice that things began to be more clear to me and I was just continuing to be silent for the rest of the night and not only that I also noticed that I enjoyed the music that I was listening to even more than I used to before because I was actually listening to the song and not talking to myself and saying how good the song was. Everyone is different, so I don’t think that just because you talk to yourself you’re crazy, everyone does it from time to time I believe. I have a coworker who changes her voice when she talks to herself, it’s quite amazing I might add, lol. When I’m quiet and doing any task it’s easier for me to focus and if something bothers me, I just take some deep breaths and the anger passes away so in conclusion, it’s normal to talk to yourself, if you enjoy it do it.
I have major issue I have conversations in my mind. But does that make me crazy……..Thank you coley23 you have just proven my insanity:(
i reckon talking to yourself is the result of not having someone to open to, i do it often
alright so i think im going crazy…i talk to myself silently and its driving me crazy because i cant stop…..i even talk to photos..and then after im done talking to them the image is still in my mind and its as if they are still listening to me..im such a nut…and i know….it….majjjjooor nut
I talk to myself and i know i am crazy that is the only way to survive
I have this problem, I talk to my self loudly for hours daily. My mother and sister caught me many times. Im addicted to it because i think a lot and dont have the courage to express this to people. I think is problem related to ADHD.
I caught my brother today talking to him self in the bathroom. He didnt feel sorry for what he is doing and told its his right to talk to him like I do. He went to the kitchen to continue talking and when i told him to stop he told its not of your business.
It is their and your business to ask “Is everything alright?” because that is just caring.
But when they say back …”I was just talking to myself” that should be accepted.
I do it more often then ever (53 now), but I still have sense, and don’t outburst in public.
I definitely believe it is more when you need a stress release when you have some pent up stuff, like a “venting”
Dont think it is abnormal at all.
Almost like a slight autistic thing, but those less intelligence peple may say you your crazy, but what do they know, they are not you… and you function in normal life, right?
I think it may be like a high intelligence, in some form.
how about if you know that no one is there but you pretend that you are talking to them. i do. but i am still conpletely aware that they arent really talking to me…
