Good evening Lovelies!
There’s something I have to share with you, hoping (as usual) that some of you will comfort me by admitting you do it too.
I think blogging is driving me crazy. Ok. I give it to you, stating the obvious so far.
But what’s worrying me a bit, although I have been doing it for a while now, is that since stories are brewing in my head most of the time, I often catch myself making my characters have conversations. Out loud.
It usually happens at the bathroom for some reason. Especially in front of the mirror. At first I was just thinking about the things they told each other, but now, I really get into it and totally act out her part. To the point that if we argue, or have a very intense conversation, I manage to make myself cry. If someone surprised me, I’d look like a schizophreniac.
I also started doing it when walking outside. I never was intense enough to cry or anything like that while strolling on the sidewalk, but I do catch myself talking out loud, in English. Not whole dialogues, sometimes it’s just a sentence or two… But still…
This is ridiculous.
I think I need a shrink. Maybe one of my imaginary friends could help? I’ll have to check that, next time I stop by the bathroom.
Please, please tell me I am not alone… lol.
I’m about halfway with you. I have very intense conversations with others in my head, but it’s not usually for story purposes.

I talk to myself all the time and I answer myself back too. My son thinks I’m crazy. 😁

Nope. I plot out loud so the time. I usually do it in the car with the music playing.

I intentionally speak out loud with myself often since for the longest time I did not speak much at all, even being silent for days at a time, and it was bad for me. A man named Rudy Hunter who does some sort of healing tapes at his site (some free, by the way) said that sometimes your ears need to hear your own voice, and I think it is really true. I also do tarot readings for myself out loud at home as if I were with a client, since it helps me improve and also since it can give me insights that I might not get to if I just glanced at cards and thought ‘yeah yeah I know what that means’ and zoomed past. So I don’t think you’re crazy just because of talking–I think not talking enough and not being heard enough can make you crazy!

Really good point, Donnalee 🙂 I too believe that we need to aknowledge our own voice! In a reasonable way, though… I know a couple of people who seem to like listening to themselves a little too much 😛 hehehehe
