Thread: Do you talk to yourself so the things you are doing look more meaningful?

I do talk to myself but mostly to cut out the noise around me. Sort of so I can hear myself think.

Under my breath sure, but no one would hear.

Actually, I am pretty surprised Vieope started a thread like this..

When I dont go to school for a day or make some other sort of decision that isnt favorable, I talk to myself after I MAKE that decision. Its almost like beating myself up a bit in exchange for making such a decision.

"Why didnt I go? Well, I couldnt do a good job anyway today."

Kinda sucks. Makes me not run with any decision I make.

I don't talk to myself out loud, almost everything is internal dialog. Only thing I say out loud is when I'm busy doing something then get interrupted when I return to what I was working on I'll say "Alright, where was I?" out loud. Oh and if I'm busy and keep getting phone calls I'll say "fucking come on give me a break this is ridiculous!!!"

If I did talk out loud people would think I was schizo because I'll have 2 or 3 different conversations in my head when I'm multi-tasking.

when Tyler was a baby he would roll his eyes dramatically. i finally realized he was copying something i do when i'm on the phone and frustratedly dealing with some moron.

I mutter, "fucking idiot", all the time in the gym! Not to myself, of course. I'm too awesome. I do this to other people, because they are douchebags.

I talk to myself constantly but in my head. Sometimes if its something anxious then it'll seap out and I might say something. It's a shame though, I think I say some of the most clever and creative things in my head

lately Tanya has had a problem of talking to herself that we've been trying to figure out. It just kinda popped up out of nowhere. It's really strange when you hear someone in a room by herself just start spitting out a one way conversation

i do it when i'm really anxious about something. sort of like rehearsing what i should say to the party i'm upset with. maybe it's just anxiety.

I'm pretty vocal with inner thoughts, often to the point I can get funny looks for almost nonsensical sentences that I spout at times. Other times, just plain offensive.

The worst times are when I've had a drink or two, and find something really funny about someone, like a cracking insult, and said it, instead of thinking it. I've almost been hit a few times from that, and threatened loads/ Its even worse when I can't stop laughing afterwards.

^ lol @ goob.

I get similar things, sometimes ill be pissed that i crack great jokes about stuff to myself when nobody else is there...its annoying because the joke is wasted, and i feel like an idiot.

I pretty much commentate my life though. I can't help it, i've always been like that.

inner thoughts, hell yeah - but I try not to let them get out, at least not so that others can hear
