    People are ashamed and embarrased when they are caught talking to themselves because many people will think they are crazy frieks.

    Icingdeath were you joking about the whole "sign of genious" thing?

    [​IMG] I often talk to myself. Whenever i see one of 2 mirrors (either the one in my room, or the one in the bathroom) i almost always talk to myself. It started when i was doing my teeth and i would talk into the mirror about whatever was on my mind. I reason like this, since it is impossible to ever see yourself (mirrors and photos may all lie, no real way of seeing your face) then when talking into the mirror you can talk back because the person in the mirror is not you. Kinda hard to explain i know, lol.

    I also talk to myself in maths lessons, when doing calculations, it helps me work faster by keeping the numbers 'around' me (this is on non-calculator questions) and keeps me focussed. Hmm i sit on my own in maths, perhaps this could be a reason.

    It is also possible for me to have arguments with myself, and lose. Finally i often work through speech sections of something i'm trying to write by playing all the roles talking into a mirror, though i'm not actually talking to myself.

    [​IMG] I can hold a fluent conversation with myself for up to several hours, I always answer to my self and questions and everything, I confused one person once because they joined into my conversation and wondered why I kept saying things so often.

    I don't often realise I'm talking to myself and often only notice when people say something to me.

    some people have even noticed that when I'm talking to myself each part of me in the conversation seems to have a defined way of talking, accents, stutters, how they say things, what they say.

    It's weird I often think I'm talking to someone else.

    ... I've said too much worrying stuff here...

    [​IMG] ATTENTION PLEASE: All of you unfortunate souls who do not talk to yourself, do you think that perhaps you would if you found yourself alone by yourself more often? I don't talk to myself around other people(unless I am trying to be funny).

    Talking to yourself is a sign of impending mental collapse.

    I bet almost nobody here knows where that's from :)

    Well, when I was in summer camp some millenia ago, some girls thought me crazy for talking to myself. Funny people.

    I laugh AT myself too. Yep, you should see it. I have about 222 different voices in my head. The worst is the one, who fancies Orlando Bloom.

    Ouch.

    God. Help.

    There's nothing wrong with fancying Orlando Bloom! He is a good-looking male and you atre a hormonal female! accept it and move on! :p

    You should see me when I spazz out and start laughing at odd things. I am scary :D
