Constantly talking to myself in my head

[hell1971]

I feel like I am going a little crazy and I can no longer remember what it was like to feel normal, does everyone talk to them selves in there head or is this the depression , I cant remember if I used to do it or not but I cant seem to switch it off its 24/7 so much so that when someone asks me something it takes me a while to focus on what they have said because my mind is already focused on what I am saying to myself? does this make sense. because of this the house seems really noisey I find it impossible and I just want to explode if the kids are talking and the tv is on and my thoughts are going I cant stand it. any comments

This is exactly what I feel. I always assume my parents can hear me and I ask them, I think they are lying about not hearing me. Not addressing it is one of the 'ways to deal with' schizophrenia. I haven't been diagnosed with it, I have been with severe depression.Although I am alone so much you might as well give it that definition of a schizo. I don't have anyone to talk to and on the occasion I do, I cant keep up with the convo because of the anxiety I get from a person being around me. Its weird, I think of things to say and then won't even say them sometimes from the fear. I cant even walk through a neighborhood without hearing people. Hopeful for better meds and therapy

People with Downs Syndrome talks to themselves, as its a way of sorting things that maybe causing some stress. Normal people do this in silence and afraid to talk out in fear others think you are going crazy. You are not going crazy....just need so time-out  or discuss stuff with friends. Learning to meditate works wonders.

I am wondering what they put you on for your thoughts that wont go away, I have that issue and none of the meds they put me on work for this. It is almost ocd in my inability to shake harmful and depressive thoughts

I know this is a bit of a delayed response but I have almost the exact same thing and I'm pretty sure it's due to smoking weed. I smoked way too much when I was only 16-17 and only decided to quit when I noticed I was have entire thought conversations with myself. It felt like I was talking to another part of my brain (this sounds completely crazy I'm sure) and since quitting this has basically stopped. I think this was mainly due to my anti-social tendencies, so instead of talking to a friend or some other resource I talked to myself. I still have self-talk from time to time but most of my day is spent distracting myself; the only time I am alone with my thoughts is when I lay down to go to bed. I find that at that time my mind is racing so fast its nearly impossible to sleep. I run through random scenarios and think about hypothetical conversations and events. I hope this shed some light on any issues and I would greatly appreciate hearing if you or anyone else has felt something similar.

I have the same exact symptoms as you and I've been looking for help for a long time but I don't know where to find it and I'm only 16 the one thing that got me the most is that you said you feel like you find yourself rehearsing conversations in your head I do that to and a lot of times I say what I would say out loud. I don't know what to do I was diagnosed with depression and ptsd a year ago tried a couple of antidepressants but none worked and I stopped seeing my psychiatrist ad I started feeling this way about 4 months ago but I also always think that there is something wrong with me when there's not I literally feel like I'm making myself go insane

let me just get this off my chest *sigh*.



i thought i got killed by my roomate when i did weed for the second time in my life. heres wat happened!

smoked the weed and i jacked off to his GF immeatlly right when i started to pic her naked it sounded like i heard a shotgun being loaded. i brushed it off and finished my load. right after i did the energy in the house seemed angry and hostile. i got parnoid thought he was going to shoot me anyways in my head i guess i imangened myself getting shot in the leg stomach and back area i felt like i was laying there bleeding to death and i felt like the roomate wanted to come back in the room and finish the job by cutting my throat, so i was ready to die i told myself right when i told myself that my throat was cut and blackness and fear of heaven or hell entered my mind i felt as if my soul was trapped in a tiny black room. at that  moment i realized i was not compleatly dead but being judged by god thats wat i thought in my mind. so i started confessing stuff to god  so i could try and get into heaven and in doing that i cant really describe what i saw but am going to try. imaginge ur in space now take away the stars and the planets and now imgaine that its really bright like pure white if u get what am saying. anyways i started telling god bout stuff and i wasnt being sincere with what i was saying, i would be like i hope what am saying gets me into heaven and i smiled. right when that happened i imagined myself back in the tiny black room knowing what i just did i immeatly started to try and convince god i was a good soul. so it felt weird knowing that i was dieing and that i was not going to heaven laying there on the floor only moments till am gone 4 ever i cather all my strenth rise 2 my feet and confesse all my sins OUT LOUD screaming them standing up fists balled eyes closed standing there begging god to give me a second chance. i dont really rember what happen after that but i do rember opening my eyes and standing there in my room no shot not bleeding and hearing a voice say u asked for a sign (i have always asked god to prove 2 me he was real) so i hope into bed thinking that i just died and got gave me a second chance at life.

so the point of this story is:

i thought ppl could read my thoughts cuz i thought the roomate  killed me  cuz he read my mind and knew i was thinking of his girl.



so i go to work the next day thinking everybody must be able to hear my thoughts and they must already know that i died last night and came back by god. the first week was ******* aswome i was talking to ppl more than i did i was the cool guy of the work place. whenever i waited on a girl at work it was like i would connect with just them and it felt like me and her where the only two in the room flirting with them making them do stuff they wernt suppose to do at a restraunt and in front of their boyfreinds and husbands. theses girls i was hitting on were attracted to me like flies i would wait on one then another one would be right behind her biting her lip and smiling at me. i dindt know how to shut it off. and i would treat the men like ******* **** thinking "if u intrupt me while i talk to ur gilr _______ gonna happen. this went on for a week thinking this anyways my batterys about to die on my computer and i dont feel like looking for the battery. if you want the rest of my story and belive me am not even half way done yet! tell me what you think about this
