Is it normal that i talk to characters in my head?

Hey, this is a bit weird, lol. It doesn't hurt me or anybody else, though, so I guess it's normal to be.

Thing is, I have this weird habit of using characters from shows to keep me occupied. It all started when I was having a really hard test and I was just... really frustrated, I guess. I couldn't talk to anybody so I used Ritsu from K-ON! and stupidly had a discussion with her in my head. Strange, I know. I also recently finished Avatar and for some reason I can't get over the fact that they aren't continuing it, so I talk to Aang in my head. It seems as if he's really saying it. I'm not some lonely hobo, I have friends, it's just that fictional characters are pretty cool. :P Thanks.

    never again.

    Sounds perfectly normal at this point, in that you understand that the characters are fictional and have a normal social life, etc..

    Haha, I always do that! It's no issue, your situation seems more normal than mine.

    Just save yourself while you can, and keep in mind that JUST because you're feeling sad or angry, there's no reason to escape to the imaginary world inside your head.

    I do that all the time and it's ruining me.
