Nah, I talk the most when I am alone.
Have YOU ever done this?

Do people really not talk to themselfs? They shluld! It’s not “crazy” if you knoe there isn’t another person there. But it’s ok to think out loud. It’s even good because sometimes you can hear how you sund and change. I like it and this it’s a type of self therapy

Yup, I’ve always externalized my thoughts when alone. Got teased for it occasionally when I was caught, but always seemed weird to me that people don’t. One of the many reasons I’m probably on the spectrum, but it’s not causing any harm.

What do you guys talk about?
robocall@lemmy.world 1 day ago
mostly about how much I hate myself and I’m worthless, but in a casual, non mean way.
MDCCCLV@lemmy.ca 1 day ago
Cinematography and geopolitical effects of mountainous terrain rainfall on world building stories. Also making ways of tricking people into reading the book about potatoes.

You don’t talk to yourself?
absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 1 day ago
Of course I do, sometimes I need expert advice!

I have a remote work job. Sometimes,I don’t talk to another human for many days. It doesn’t bother me too much:
I talk to my dogs. Honestly, my dogs have probably kept me alive and well as much as I keep them alive and well.

Aside from work, most of the talking I do at home is joking around with my cat. He has no idea what the fuck is going on but I crack myself up and he meows his little heart out like he’s watching John Mulaney

Apparently, you don’t own a cat.

I have gone days without talking to other people but I don’t think I’ve ever gone a waking hour without talking.

AA5B@lemmy.world 2 days ago
4, because I work partly remote so there have been occasions where I have no reason to leave the house or see another person for four days. I’m introverted so it’s kind of nice, but it’s probably not healthy

Step one, get a girlfriend
ignotum@lemmy.world 2 days ago
That’s too many steps, I’ll just stick to talking with the voices in my head
LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 2 days ago

Got too many vocal cats I talk back to. Don’t think I can go an hour unless I’m sleeping.
LiveLM@lemmy.zip 2 days ago
They don’t even need to be vocal, sometimes they’re just sitting there and I go “¿Qué Pasa?”
I don’t even speak English man
YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 2 days ago
I like speaking farci or erdu to mine(not a brag, I’m not fluent in either)
Aqarius@lemmy.world 2 days ago
Also, you apparently have a sore throat. Who knew?
sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 days ago
I solve this problem by occasionally yelling at bafflingly stupid current events.
Gotta keep up that ability to insult on the fly.
… Less insanely, I also sing, and… have neighbors I talk to.
LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 2 days ago
If I didn’t talk to myself out loud or use voice-to-text on my phone to leave internet comments, I’d be on day 5 of vocal silence right now.
Dasha_Gold@lemmynsfw.com 2 days ago
No because I have a job and leave my house.

not alone but forgetting how to talk. quit answering phone
toynbee@lemmy.world 2 days ago
When I moved to my current house, my wife and kid were at our previous house for a while. I deliberately chose this house for its isolation, so for a while the only people I really spoke to were local cashiers every few days. (Side note: my kid was three at the time and had left a toy triceratops on the back of one of the commodes the day we signed for the house. I never thought a toilet would make me miss someone so much.)
Anyway, I work remotely and had a daily virtual meeting. Most days, that meeting was the first and last time I spoke. I also had some kind of long lived sinus infection going on, so not only did I speak pretty rarely, until I opened my mouth I wasn’t even sure if I’d have a voice that day.
Lemminary@lemmy.world 2 days ago
That would never be me. I’m constantly talking to myself. People think I’m crazy, but I think I’m just bursting with ideas!

Yeah I talk to myself and my cat way too much, I actually talk more when I’m alone than I do when someone else is around.

I get lots of questioning looks in the grocery stores cause I didn’t make a list and have to tell myself, audible, that I didn’t need the cookies.
SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 2 days ago
It would be me, except I swear a lot under my breath when I encounter problems with software or things.

Fredselfish@lemmy.world 2 days ago
Dude you’re not alone, talk to myself all the time. When I am caught I just tell people I was needing an expert opinion. Its gets a good laugh and people don’t think I’m crazy. Agatha Christina would play out the dialog in her novels to herself outloud. Most people with an active imagination does this.

Now @BetaBlake@lemmy.world is silent because of your “you are not alone”
