Is it normal redo a conversation in ur head after u had it

93% Normal
10 Comments

I have noticed that after I talk to someone I sometimes go over the converstaion in my head and tell myself things like of u should have said this instead of that to get my point accross better or to sound smarter. I tend to do this more with people I don't know so well. Also I sometimes feel like a retard and be like ah y did u sayy that haha. Does anyone else do this?

Is It Normal?

    You're sort of rehearsing for the theater of life. I do it too, especially at work.

    Yes, but the right level of confidence might help you get it all out of your head the first time.

    I think it is more normal for introverts or those with social agony. Just make sure you don't accidentally start doing it out loud like I do sometimes!

    It's always better wen u go over it after the fact and revised wat u didn't want to say. Next time anticipate wat they r going to say so u r better prepared
