I talk to myself way too much.

I've had this issue for a while where I'm always talking to myself, pretending I'm having a conversation with somebody. These conversations are usually arguments, but sometimes they can consist of me giving my opinion on something, like I'm being interviewed. I do it way too much, though. This can't be healthy. I don't know what it is that makes me do this but I'm afraid it could hurt my ability to go out and interact with ACTUAL people. I don't want my social life to include constant fantasies and scenarios being played out in my head. Please help...

    Listen, I don't think you're crazy at all. You use this habit as a kind of psychological stress buster. You should look into something known as, "maladaptive daydreaming".

    this happens to me all the time when I'm high. You feel like the life you've been living is a lie because you talk to yourself too much. Like in yur mind something good happend to you, but in real life yur still in a shitty situation.You don't feel shitty though, yur feeling the result of what yur thinking about, then you think oh shit I just made up a fantasy scenario. No biggie dude. just means you need to go out nd interact.
