Now it even gets more crazy when I think about it. When I'm getting ready for work in the morning I'm talking to myself in my head about things I have to do today. Making mental lists for the day. When I'm sitting coding (or building something in my shop, or working on my car) I usually talk out loud to myself. Although usually what is said out loud is along the lines of "What the hell?" or "You where just true to seconds ago, what freaking set you to false!?"

Cool, good point, I hear people talking out loud to themselves too.. But maybe they think they are mentally talking to themselves, but in actuality they are really talking out loud? How about if we all do that, but are just not aware of it???? I'm in DEEP trouble if that's the case Nick

How is it that we can "hear" ourselves think? When we talk to ourselves, we are not making any actual "noise" Our ears, which obviously facilitate our sense of hearing, are not involved in this process at all. So when talking to one's self, how do we actually hear our own voice? Nick
Have you been hearing voices in your mind? :~ -- I am on fire. Do you need a light?

When you start sending yourself memos and calling meetings with yourself, I'd talk to a shrink. Besides, which one of you is responsible for the coffee and donuts?

As long as those voices aren't commanding you to do something, then I guess you'll be fine.. :-D -- I am on fire. Do you need a light?

Seriously, does anyone catch themselves having a self conversation...let's say while you are going to the bathroom at work...and during the middle of that converstation you realize you are talking to yourself, but you can't remember if you said anything out loud...and you worry about it, b/c if you did actually "voice" that conversation, the guy in the stall next to you might be offended? :confused: Nick

Generally, I leave it at stray comments here or there, and usually when I'm alone. Even then, I'll try pass it off like I'm talking to my cat.
