I talk to myself out loud sometimes when no ones around.

Are you sure about that? I hope it’s not the case

I talk to myself, because people are always trying to make me insane, with their illogical stupidity, that seems to make a lot of sense to dumb, immature, superficial a-holes. And sometimes I talk to voices, who make outrageous and ludicrous suggestions, because they’re usually unbelievably stupid too.

I talk to myself and my thoughts and voices where ever I am. I mostly tell them to shut up but my therapist wants me to replace that with something else. Maybe something positive.

I don’t talk to myself out loud anymore. At onset I was constantly talking to another person who wasn’t there. It’s a big improvement.

I talk back to my voices sometimes I will ask them to clarify the warnings and I do this out loud. My brother will ask me if everything is ok with you.

I used to talk back to the voices I use to hear. They would often distract me at work when I used to work. The meds took care of those voices. It just might help him if you ask him who he’s talking to.

To myself, and trying to ignore all the others

I do the same thing.
I only talk to myself. I practice something called ‘narrative driving’. I identify and verbally call out what I’m seeing…
- Vehicle coming up behind.
- Vehicle about to pass on left.
- Vehicle passing.
- Good pass, 4 seconds gap.
- Intersection 15 seconds ahead, movement.
- Intersection 10 seconds ahead, one vehicle stopping, one hazard
- Intersection 5 seconds ahead, both drivers stopping and looking at me.
It’s something they train school bus drivers to do. It unfortunately makes the public think we’re crazy when we’re alone in a bus and mumbling to ourselves.
In terms of psychosis and voices, no. Playing with voices just makes one sicker. Don’t do it.

I saw a programme about police officers trained for high speed chases. They did that too
I talk negative things about myself. Or about the people that have hurt me in the past. But not non stop. I stopped talking out loud with the delusions two years ago.
I have my old imaginary friends in the recesses of my mind. I used to talk to them all the time. Now I have small conversations where it’s all in my mind and I’m not speaking out loud to them. APs haven’t made it go away
I to hear voices of people I know but don’t want to converse with them. Maybe if they were dead. I can always call or talk to them when I see them. I really feel like hanging it up, I feel so depressed right now.
Hang in there! Things really can get better if you just keep going. Do you have a friend or therapist?
Schizophrenia is the conjunction of the words Skhizen and Phrene. These mean split mind. Another word by Julian Jaynes is Bicameral Mind which means two chambers.
I’ve called it extremente which means extra or beyond mind. I’ve also called it “rifted” which means a break in the plain of, and what the sz is communicating with is with a “rifter.” That’s what I’ve called it for awhile now in my research not of brain but of mind, information, and paradigm.
Brain is like any other organ. They make and/or functions something or somehow that is characteristic of the organ. So bones produce blood cells. Muscles produce movement. Tendons connect them to bones. Livers produce bile. You can go on and on and on.
Brain’s process and render information, and so to understand what that means, you need to understand more about what is the phenomenon of “information.” You are your mind, and your mind is information, therefore you are information. Even the feelings and the willingness or restraint are informationous signals.
In order to “mind meld” with pretend invisible creatures or real things like mountains, the sun, the sky, or the whole universe like it was socialitic which it is not, but in order to pretend how to do that you have to pretend to see and sense messages, information, signals, patterns in you and around you. This causes the split of the mind.
The brain doesn’t know it’s splitting. It’s learning like it does when it learns how the world works, how the culture works in society, how the family works, how friends work, and how language works. It is learning how to be in a social event with itself though.
A lot of people don’t want to get this. If you do however, then you are far, far ahead of most people. A brain makes information, and when it really does converse with a real person who is really conversing back, it has to make both information that means the self and information that means the other person. The only information that is communicated between the two people is light and sound which are inductive sensory data inputs. But the person can assume that the deductive information in the mind is an inductive, sensory data input from the person or invisible being or what not. It is pretending to see signals in patterns, meaning in words, tone, and behavior, and it’s pretending that the thoughts and feelings are somehow mind melded information from someone or something else.
The real big and ancient problem that these organs keep having is when they say, “They/It knew what I was thinking! So it has to be real.” That is the killer data right there. Remember, always remember, that information can be false as well as it can be true. Also information can make you sick, destroy, and all else as well as make you happy, content, and rise or in between.
The information that occurs when the brain feels safe about assuming that there is some mind melding information is that it produces deductive information that first is believed to be from the mind of another person or thing. It’s not inductive information, but that brain has conditioned itself probably with support of religious or culthish people and/or fiction story tales…conditioned itself to assume that one’s deductive information and deductive faculties are inductive sensory data input. They want to believe this for several years before the mind really splits.
I can ask anyone, if your deductive faculties and deductive information is coming from other people, but it’s really your deductive thoughts and feelings from yourself, and that deductive information says or does something just like what you are thinking, are you somehow magic? Do you mind meld with people or things?
And the answer is no, no, no, no way, no he’ll no, ‘n f’ way. 
I’ll put that question in another way. If your brain tells you what you are thinking, then are you magic, telepathic, supernatural, rich, and famous now?
Do you see the problem? Our brains are trained to assume that what we are thinking is coming from someone or something else? That’s simply a confusion about the source of deductive information in our minds and what is the difference between deductive information vs. inductive information. One comes from within, and one comes from exterior of the brain.
When I say that your roomy is “rifting,” I mean that he is conversing with his deductive mind information as if it were someone or something else that is socialitic in nature.
I’ll end this with a thought to think about which all sz’s should consider?
The brain can make one personality comprised of graphical information we call our mind, so what’s to say that it can’t make more than one?
And if it can make more than one, what does that say about the last 40,000 years of talking humans that have been believing they were mind melded with universal beings that read their minds, watch their actions, punish, track, and do it for infinity? What’s even more what’s that say about the poor homeless man or woman on the street in filthy rags randering on and on to the cars, sky, buildings, ground, etc?
I’ve no idea what you’re rambling on about mate. You tend to do that a lot with lots of technical jargon. Perhaps it’s like a delusion to you?
Welp…I can bring horse the water, I jest caneth bringin’ the horse through the water,…matey. LOL
What’s even more is that what I’m knowing and using to help my own mind is working, and it’s getting “powerful” to say otherwise. People like yourself are not used to the words I use to explain it, but I spent the last year and a half working on the whole discipline of this stuff like a real researcher. I want to relay it to people, but it’s words that are the problem. People that actually could use the information can’t understand the words, and I haven’t described this enough to enough people yet in my lifetime to the point that I have lots of handy words, metaphors, and stories for examples which anyone can understand.
It’s like right now I’m trying to find an imagery and terminology ratio gear conversion ability like a transmission on a car. I have the engine so to speak. You all are at the wheels so to speak. I just have to convert the power to place it at the world, and turn.
Aaaaaaand I doubt you read that either. C’ est la vie.
