As I grow older I find that I talk to myself more and more - is this something that you do too?
This is a true story, and sometimes when I tell it I get scared.
I was talking to myself one day (I live alone so there's nobody to talk to), and I told myself that I needed to remember to get something out of my car before I went to bed.
And then I responded to myself: “We both know that I'm not going to remember…”
We both? I have no idea what I meant or why I said that. But it might explain that weird conversation I had with the guy in the produce section at the grocery store.
That's funny!
Not minimizing the post, or thoughts behind it...but...I think it would have been really funny if nobody had replied <snicker>
Lmao!
I talk AT myself a lot. Usually saying a variation of "what the fuck David" ?
Ive said that!
It's rare but it happens. I usually repeat a joke to myself and sometimes laugh or just mention something I've forgotten and get happy that I remembered. Other times it's just me thinking out loud and critiquing or judging my thoughts.
How can you talk to yourself unless you have multiple personalities?
I think its starts as thinking out loud
On advice of my counsel, I'm going to plea the fifth.
Thinking aloud is one way to give one idea greater importance in my racing mind, otherwise shit just gets lost in the clutter.
Like many, I at times maintain a running dialogue in my noodle. It is not my preferred state, but in my current situation, I am needing to monitor my behavior quite stringently; thus, the back and forth, as it were. I prefer my normal state of flow and a quiet mind, which I have become more adept at maintaining. But right now I'm in semi-crisis mode, due to my tenuous circumstances, so the old think tank is working overtime.
