Is it bad to say your thoughts out load?

Answer 1

Only if your thoughts are bad. (And, the phrase is "out loud"; unless, of course, you meant you wanted to off load what was floating around inside.)

Answer 2

Thinking out loud, may give the impression that you are a little less than brilliant. Although most people do think out loud some time, it carries with it a sense of lack of self confidence. It is as though you had this thought and you would like to hear how it sounds before taking action. I do it a lot during my day at work, by try not to when other people are present.

Answer 3

If they are targeted to hurt someone I would say "yes". I have a daughter that talks to herself all of the time. I don't think that there is any harm in it, it's rather entertaining.
