My mom does and I've always wondered why? I asked her and she just laughs, and says "she always done it" I hear her saying things like " Alicia you KNOW you can do this" Sometimes it makes me smile. :)

When I see people talking to themselves most of the time I only here mumbling. I'm just a people-watcher. :)

Yea, I'm a bartender and have been doing it for years...I have a lot going on at once and saying it aloud helps me to remember. So it's become a habit, I don't really care what anyone thinks. I don't have actual conversations with myself, I'm really just thinking out loud, I guess.

Yeah, I talk to myself a lot. Mainly because I'm at home by myself most of the day and I have nothing important to do.

I've always talked out loud when I've done something stupid or am mad at myself. Like, "Nancy, you're an idiot." of 'Nancy, why did you do that?"
I've noticed that I am not alone in doing that. However, most people are unaware that they are talking out loud until it is brought to their attention.

The older I get, the more I talk out loud to myself.

i do all the time and dont even realize it. my teachers used to have to talk with my parents because i would do it in class. my mom always catches me doing it and makes fun of me and so does my girlfreind (both playfully of course). heck, i even talk in my sleep. ive been told by the whole household...

It's weird to admit it, but yeah. Sometimes it just helps to organize your thoughts. I do it a lot while studying and also while planning my day.

I think the general rule of thumb is don't answer yourself when you are talking to yourself. lol Y not?

haha, i find myself doing that alot... i think it kinda just helps me grab my mind and concentrate on what i am doing, or maybe i just have a bad case of add, so i have to yell at myself, haha. i do that tho.
