I keep to myself at home mostly and since I'm a writer the best place for me to relax is inside my head. I am in no way crazy (I hope). I create scenes like in a movie and it goes along the way I want. The characters talk and interact. I do this everytime before I fall asleep because it's the only way I can fall asleep, is by talking to my mind about anything, going to an imaginary world inside my head and be in a movie. Does anyone else do this besides me? I've even named the person inside my head Ringo. Sometimes I find my world better than watching TV. It's like I just lie there and a movie just plays out of my control. How normal is this?

I'm so glad you asked this question! I've always done this and I was always too afraid to mention it to anyone. Mine is like a whole different life but it's me. The life continues every night like I'm actually living it. I've had the same "movie" going and progressing for a few months now. When one life gets boring, I create a whole new scenario in my head of an ideal life and fantasize about that life until it gets boring(They usually last months at a time). I use this to fall asleep also. It's the only way I've found calm my mind enough to sleep. Thanks for easing my worries and I hope my and the other's answers help ease your worries. :^)

You have a vivid and creative imagination, the kind that writers, movie makers, artists, screen writers, and play writes have. Start writing the scenes in your head. Make stories and keep on making more. Someday you'll begin to sell them, And then you'll be having fun and making money too.

This seems pretty normal if not a little bit above and beyond. Sometimes I see things I wanna do the next day in movie form. I do have a quote that you may find intresting though.
Its okay to talk to yourself (you know everyone does)
Its even okay to argue with yourself.
But, if you lose the argument....
start to worry.

Don't worry everyone does it. Its your imagination and cognitive mind at work. Some people can see huge images and make movies while others see simple one on one things. Don't freak your as weird as everyone on the planet earth. :)

i am right there with ya. and honestly i think its perfectly ok. sometimes we need to escape and at least we aren't out there causing problems and getting into trouble. just remember it is all in your mind and don't let it control you.
