Is it normal to talk to yourself?

Of course it is, I do it all the time. So it must be! Yesterday, I saw a woman telling her dog as she tied him outside Tesco's that she was going to get him his favourite dog biscuits, that's absolutely normal too. It's no different to talking to the dog or children, at least you listen to yourself!

Yes it is,I like a chat with myself, working things through out loud,just me, myself and I

I hope it is...my partner isn't here all of the time and I sometimes say to him 'was I talking to myself just now'.

oh yes, I do it all the time, at least if I ask a question, I get the answer I want

I ve always talked to myself and living on my own I can do it out loud with no one wondering if I m going mad
I do wonder if my adjoining neighbour thinks I have loads of company 🤣

I talk to DH’s photo all the time - run things past him; joys and worries, should I shouldn’t I? Thinking out loud. I also talk to myself along the lines of “you know that b****y door is locked - you checked it”.

If it isn’t normal I’m in serious trouble!

Yes, I do it too. Only time it’s a bit embarrassing is when you are in public and realise you have just said something you were thinking out loud. Mind you with people talking on phones with no visible wires etc. I doubt anyone realises.

As are most of us Teabagwoman

Another one here I always have. I also talk to myself in the supermarket.

It's normal. I've always talked to myself a lot. My husband is quite used to it.

Do you mean actually talking to yourself out loud? I don't think I've ever done that.

Oh thank goodness for that!
I thought it was just me.

I have my very best conversations with myself😀

It's very normal!

I have a framed photo of my last cat who passed over the Rainbow Bridge some time ago, in the living room. I absolutely worshipped her, and she knew it, so I talk to her every day and every night, tell her what day/date it is, when I'm leaving, roughly what time I'll be back, ''the latest gossip'' as I did when she was alive.

I talk to myself all the time, tell myself off when I did something wrong, congratulate myself on doing something right, natter away, I do!

Oh I do this quite happily, my old mum did too. And if is weird then it seems from replies on here that there are a lot of weirdos around 🤣

I takk to the cat; I talk to myself; I talk to the household appliances ("oh, come on, washing machine. I thought you'd be finished by now"). I talk to the plants in the garden. Why not? The cat is the only one who doesn't listen 😃.

Or course I do. But if I'm out people are always talking to themselves as in hands free phones with ear buds. So just add 'oh really that's good or something. But at home I talk to myself or ask the cat what she thinks

I wouldn't speak to anyone if I didn't speak to myself, the vacuum, my shrimps, the mop, and anything, really.
It somehow doesn't seem to matter so much these days, if I'm out in public and need a good talking to.
It ensures I get two seats to my one bum on the bus, too.

I do it all the time and I don't live alone. I find I'm a very good listener!

DH does it all time, and I often answer. Which gives him a bit of a jolt as he doesn’t realise he has spoken out loud.

I do it a lot. Interesting to hear what I say sometimes. I read somewhere it's a good thing to do for your mental health/self awareness.

Even when we're in the same room I often ask if I'm talking to myself, my husband listens to stuff on his phone via his Bluetooth hearing aids so I'm not aware he can't hear me 🙄
