Does anyone you know do this?

Question

My dad talks to himself esp. when he is really frustrated. I don't mean he talks to himself and he thinks people are responding. He's not crazy or anything. I just think its really weird. I know he's only doing it to work out his issues but it creeps me out sometimes. Does anyone else do that or know anyone that does? Again he does not talk to himself in the since that people are talking back to him. He talks to himself to work things out in his head.

Answer 1

yeah i do that sometimes when i cnt make my mind up about something

Answer 2

Lots of people think out loud!

Answer 3

I do it very occasionally, but more often I talk to inanimate objects... like if something's not working, I'll quietly talk to it. And yes, my talking to myself is almost always when I'm trying to work something out and it helps if I hear it.

Answer 4

It's normal. I think everyone does it. Sometimes my mind just goes blank and I have to think out loud to be able to think at all! If that makes any sense xD

Answer 5

John McClane would do that in all of the Die Hard movies. my mom and my grandma also do it too. i think it's pretty normal.

Answer 6

my dad is the same way! i think he does it to work things out in his head! it's funny though, because i don't answer when he is actually talking to me because i think he is talking to himself!!!

Answer 7

yeah! my dad does that too, i'm serious! and sometimes he does it in like public places and I start talking to him to get him to stop cause it's sort of embarrassing. I mean he just like mouths the words he doesn't actually make noise or anything and he is not insane or anything he just gets angry easy i guess! so your not the only one! haha

Answer 8

Have you ever been confuses about a decision and thought the people around would not offer a significant answer
