How often do you talk to yourself A couple of hours ago, I was on my way to get some stuff from the grocery stuff when I was almost knocked down by a young man coming from the opposite direction. To say this guy was lost in his thoughts was an understatement, he was literally unaware of his environment. Initially I thought he was on call, but there was no earpiece over his ears niether was he holding a phone. The young man was just having a serious conversation with himself that he wasn't looking at where he was going to.
If not that he had a nice suit, a nice haircut with two new pairs of shoes to match, one would definitely think he had just gone mad. Ofcourse,we all have sometimes engage in a little conversation with ourselves from time to time especially when we are alone. Psychology have proved that talking to one's self is a healthy human behavior. It helps in improving one's concentration and analysis. But talking aloud to yourself on the road could often be interpreted as early signs of instability or disorder.
Talking to oneself in private ain't bad at all, especially when we are dealing with serious issues and there's no one around to talk about it too. Personally, I sometimes do talk to myself when I am standing in front of a mirror. Based on the mood, I could scold me, motivate me or even compliment me.... You know when you speak positive things to yourself, you might also positive things. I often do verbalize my thoughts in order to strengthen my memory, especially when I am preparing for an exam or test, that way I'm not easily distracted as I would always be at alert. It's actually not uncommon for students to vocalize all what they have crammed from textbooks during examination periods.
Some individuals might just find comfort in voicing out their thoughts when alone as it helps them clear their minds. They believe talking to themselves might help them fine up with a quick solution about a lingering problem. Other times, it could be as a result of accumulated stress, or overwhelming emotional weights. In this case, speaking out aloud could help loosen the the burdening of the heart. In some cases, it could even worsen the situation and make the individual more miserable, especially when there's happens to be no possible solution in sight to the challenges that one is going through. **†******************************* Thanks for reading 😁💝

I usually talk my self if I get bored or I felt unmotivated😁
Lol. It happens to.mw when am angry
We are all prone to this act of talking to oneself. I often do that especially now that I'm living alone, I talk and laugh🤣. That guy, maybe they just served him breakfast 🙄
I suspect Sapa
It's always nice to speak to oneself but I prefer when there is no distractions else the situation of that young man bumping into you would always repeat itself. We need to be safe while engaging ourselves... Imagine if that was a car that bumped into him while a driver behind the wheel was also "speaking" to himself or herself...
🤣🤣🤣🤣. Him eyes for clear. He'd continue speaking to himself after waking up on an hospital bed, only this time there would be tears in his eyes as he speaks. ... That other one sef would talk to himself welwell behind bars
🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣😂 on the hospital and behind bars 😂😂🤣🤣😂
I do that a lot but in private of course and mostly a mental conversation lol!
Lol. I do it mostly when in rage 🤣
That guy own don pass be careful. It's okay to talk to yourself but doing it while walking and lost deep in your thoughts could be a sign of early madness
Lol. Maybe he could be preparing for an exam, but schools are on strike, that means your assumptions might be correct
Either he is really frustrated and depressed or not fit in mental department. So maintain distance. Normal people would prefer to talk with themselves in a secluded place where none can watch or hear them.
That's true.. or maybe he might just be overwhelmed by stress.
Self-talk often helps in a big way.
Lol, it sure does
