I don't know if it's how you've written the question or if you are saying the voice inside is seperate to you and is antagonising you.
Having a constant internal dialogue is normal (it's actually very hard, if not impossible, to turn off), occassionally mumbling something to yourself is normal, something like a writer thinking out aloud as they work on a book is normal. There are distraction, relaxation and meditation techiniques that can help control inner dialogue but if you are busy you shouldn't be a that aware of it going on.
Talking to yourself a lot and being unable to stop yourself doing it isn't normal, it could be a sign of extreme stress or the result of drugs or alcohol but if you also have other symptoms like sleep and memory problems, are isolating yourself, aren't eating or keeping up personal hygiene and your perception has changed (you think that people who have never really done anything to you are suddenly out to get you) then you need to see a Doctor ASAP.
Is it normal that I can't stop talking with myself?
