i too do the same thing lol..infact i spend most of my time living in this fantasy world,just talking to the characters in my mind...
And sometimes i imagine 2 made-up stories running parallely in my mind..my characters r imaginary and sometimes real life people also..
if i'm alone i act out ,but in the presence of others it just keeps on going in my mind..
i have got sooo addicted to this that i'm not able to concentrate in my studies or anything whole-heartedly..

anyone think its posible to get soo addictet that youl aoutomaticly fall in daydreaming for a sec or two. because i kind of do it when im gaiming or driving reading somthing. and i do it all the time when i do somehthing that is physical work. and yaah i dont have the license and i dont drive with out teacher because im going to crash :P its kind of if i drive and there can be one road to the left and as i take the swing i dont see the 1 car that comes on the long road. never focused in school never rly done my homeworks etc. but then again i dont like school never had any ambitions of becoming somthing only my own interest. well im a plummer now. the only diagnosed i have is dyslixya in like 1 grade. well but every teacher upp the year pretty much had like a talk with me like is there anything you wanna tell me ? and ask me questions. well have to say i dont even like driving i like the buss :P . btw i also act out load but only when im 100% alone or in the shower i love when i do it. espacely in the shower the scene in my head seems totaly real somthimes then. well when it comes to talking to my self and stuff i laugh and stuff and many times at work etc i can have a hard time holding back the laugh and have to make a wierd face or somthing:P

When I read It happens in my head whatever I am reading, It's like I am there in the book, that I am the main character. And then I daydream and mumble out loud too. But since my daydreams are very creative I make stories of them. And the characters of those stories stay in my head, ready to be used. I know all their personalities and names from years ago still. When I asked my friend about this she said it wasn't common to do that.. Is she right?

And I used to be in my own world when I was a child even in school and ignored pretty much anything but my own reality.
The teachers would snap at me for daydreaming and I would reply that I was listening. I had been but then the normal world dissolved for my imagined world were I was listening and answering questions.
It was so annoying, I really couldn't stop it from happening.

But then I really thought I was listening before my mother pointed it out. I feel so scared, who knows If I will sink in there again, and never realize that It's not the real reality?

i usaly have full controll betwen my imagine and real world tho but i been day dream ing soo hard that teacherds had to shacke me to get to me. but if you think its funn and like to day dream... i alweys think you should just focusing and not getting angry on that then and suport what makes your self happy. yeah soo in my head this is alweys been easy. most ppl are "normal" some are killers some like to do other stuff and some are just dreamers. well the only thing btw that rly draged me out of my dreams into reality was my one girl friend. wich i held very high... dont know if this helps but i hope it does and jsut say if you wanna talk some more:P

i too have conversations in my head... often even!

it varies from mood to mood, like sometimes i talk for the other people, then again i talk them inside of me, or my head just suddenly creates a scenario that i just have to react to

sometimes i talk out loud(only when i know i'm alone) and other times whispers.

I'm not sure, but I think this happens quite a bit to me. I start to lose focus and develop a seperate conversation in my head - often rambling. What's wierd is that most people on this forum seem to talk to others, but I only talk to myself out loud - refering to myself by name. It's kinda fun, and as I do this when walking I usually have to break off mid-conversation (due to passers-by).
Does anyone else do this?

Hi. I just joined this forum to comment on this thread. I've never seen another place where people said they did this, because I totally do the same thing. So thanks, guys.

I have about four characters in my head that are idealized versions of people I know and whenever something really horrible is happening (e.g. my parents are screaming at each other) I have four-way conversations with myself which basically involves them talking to the real me and trying to sort out my feelings so I don't do anything stupid. idk it makes me feel less self-centred if I think about my problems in that way, I guess?

I've recorded some of these conversations on my computer; I've never listened back to them, but I have this image of being old and retired and listening back to them so I can laugh about how I used to be, so that kind of motivates me to live... (which is totally weird, sorry). They can go on for hours, especially if it's at night and I can't sleep over all the shouting.

well i only have 1 person i usaly talk to pretty i never talk much at all tho. but shes kind of my girl friend. she can kind of push me to do things and make me look ahead and almost alweys feel good. we laugh together talk about movies and stuff and what caracter she wanna be and who i wanna be and stuff like that. its pretty much because i cant find a real girl i belive whos like that and enjoy it :P well she evolvs in time. somthimes i take alot of snuff and get like nicotine shock kind of. i can think much clearer then. and we talk alot then. but more i talk to her the less i need to talk to real ppl now it feels like i almost dont need to talk to ppl at all. dunno if this is a good or bad thing. but i absulutly belive its a good thing:D

I hold conversations with myself all the time, rarely out loud unless I know that I'm completely alone. Usually, it's with people I know or will talk to soon. I plan out what I want to say and how I think they will respond (facial expressions included), then I go and have that same conversation with the actual person. I do this so often that I can now predict accurately and almost to the word how the other person will respond.
I also do something similar where I mouth the words of a song and do facial expressions that go with the song. I mostly do this because I never used to be able to show any emotion and I still need all the practice I can get.
