>>34374909
No, that's really not normal.

>>34374909
i just think in pictures

>>34374909
Yeah. I do. It's not universal. I don't have a clue how other people do it, honestly.

>>34374909
Yes
I didn't know people didn't talk to themselves in their heads

If you are referring to subvocalization, nearly all humans do it, typically subconsciously.

Introverts typically think before they speak, so if you fall into that category then it's p normal.

Me? I literally talk to myself. Out loud. Full on role-playing self conversation.

Yep, usually

it's really interesting, I read a few years back on wiki a sort of listing up of the different ways of thinking, like word-formers vs visualizers and stuff, which I believe were the most common types along with some synasthesia middle weird thingy type 1-2 percenters. don't remember what article that was

>he talks to himself like a virgin

>>34374909
I prefer to talk to myself out loud, but when other people are around I keep my mouth closed and just shape the words with my tongue/throat as I think. I find it difficult to think the words without making speaking movements.

Sometimes but a lot of the times I just reference the concepts in my head without saying all the words. It's kind of lazy and it makes it hard for me to explain my thoughts to people after a while.

>>34374909
Yeah. Sometimes I'll even say them out loud. Full-on convo or just a rant of something I just read to myself.

>Like you talk to yourself in your head?
Of course. I also create imaginary characters and talk to them. Same goes with talking to girls in my mind as well.

That's what folks do, as far as I know. I try to think in the first-person ("I"), not the second-person ("you"), since I am thinking things about or towards myself, not communicating with someone else. Most people probably don't care whether their thinking is grammatically-correct, but I care about such things for some reason.

Ricky Gervais had a conversation about this on his radio/podcast thing that freaked me out. He and Steve were laughing at Karl because Karl said he thought in words and sentences. Ricky and Steve told him he was an idiot because "normal" people thought in concepts and ideas, not words. I got nervous wondering if I was an idiot for thinking like Karl, but reading through this thread it seems like it's pretty common. Among robots, anyway.

Talk to myself in my head? Not really.
Talk to myself out loud? All the time.

wait what you mean everyone isn't constantly having a conversation with themselves in their head? I used to talk to myself out loud like in a whisper, my mom does it at night sometimes and she has schizophrenia so I kinda forced myself to stop doing it.

>>34374909

I do. But it's on overdrive. I have to be really invested in what I'm doing or my thoughts go crazy.

When I'm alone I can't help but constantly talk to myself.
