i talk to myself even when i'm not high or drunk... i have bad memory... it helps (somehow not sure how) if i hear the words i'm thinking...

as an example.. if i were to keep a thought in my head completely and not hear it, it could be gone in less than a minute and even tho i'd know i was thinking something, it's still gone and i can't remember it no matter what

with the same thing, if i was to say it out loud.... it'll last alot longer... or even more so i may forget it, but i can remember the tones in the voice of when it was said (is that weird? that i can rememer wording just by the tones a voice used...) and eventually more often then not, it leads to me remembering the exact wording used..

so yeah i talk to myself alot, but it's more to help my memory then anything else.. or to understand problems (another werid thing, i can read a math problem a hundred times in my head and none of it will click [i have a horrible dislexia that way] but if i read it outloud to myself, sometimes it'll finally make sense..
