No it's when you have a conversation with someone who isn't there that there's something wrong with you.

I always talk to myself. I spend most of my days with a 15 month old and a dog...so I'm the only person who can answer myself in conversation lol. I do it all the time, even in pulblic when I'm out shopping...I'll talk to myself about grocery lists, and such. So if talking to yourself makes you a lunatic, then I'm a total nutcase :D.

I don't think you are a lunatic. Sometimes our brain has so much in it that we have to just vent. I find that when I am alone I usually sing to myself. However if it makes you feel so strange buy a fish, dog, cat or some type of animal. That why when you are home you won't be "technically" talking to yourself. =)

No, you are not nuts. I used to do it long ago, just remarks about what I was doing or planning to do, expressing my thoughts out loud. Now, I just talk to my pets or make an occasional comment on what is going on at a given moment. There is a problem with those people who talk to an imaginary character, schizophrenics do that, they hear voices, have hallucinations.

No you are not a lunatic! I talk outloud all the time when I'm alone. I don't have actual conversations or anything (I think that would be kind of strange!) but I speak outloud. I think it's very common.

I talk to myself when walking down the street at times.
I will mouth the words to Frank Zappas "dancing fool"
I don't know much about dancing,
thats why I got this song,
one of my legs is shorter than the other, and both of my feets to long.
But I'm right out there with em,
I got no natural rhythm.
And I go dancing every night.
Hoping one day I might get it right.
I'm a dancing fool!
People are less apt to **** with you on the street in they think you are crazy.

You're only a lunatic if you start disagreeing with yourself.

I talk to myself all the time. As a matter of fact I broke the radio in my car almost two years ago...driving is my time to talk and sing to myself now...less bad news...more "me" time.

I do sometimes. If anybody gives you a problem about it just tell them that that is the only way that you can carry on an intelligent conversation
