Talking out loud here too, as if I feel the need to defend myself. Maybe because of being alone for me. not sure.

I talk to myself sometimes when my dad and stepmom are at work. I also sing songs that I make up but I can’t rhyme a lot of words so it’s mostly the same lyrics over and over again.

My dad once told me about a news story that said that talking to yourself is a healthy thing to do.

I live I a retirement park. One time on a flyer it said that it’s okay to talk to yourself when no one’s around. I wouldn’t worry about it @ifeelblessed.

I’m in my own world. Constantly thinking. Never present. People have told me that I disappear from time to time. I’m scared that I look and act like a nut job.

I don’t think that talking to oneself is a symptoms of schizophrenia. a lot of people have the habit of talking to themselves.

I have been talking to myself much less lately. The inside stuff should be sacred. There isn’t anyone else to talk with.

It depends, psychotic people talk to themselves from outside perspective. But we do believe someone is responding.

Why you thought they were lying??

I used to have fantastical conversation with myself all day long before abilify

Then once abilify I never talked to Jon 1 v 1 again

I definitely believe it
