I talk to myself every day. I am a bit crazy, but that is not the reason I talk to myself. I do it because sometimes it is easier to get a full grasp of a situation when you lay it out. Our minds are cluttered with many different things all trying to gain attention, vocalizing a particular problem can help us to focus our attention and find a solution easier. FYI - When I was younger, I would often find places where I could be alone just to talk to myself. I was afraid people wouldn't understand. Now I know better, and it is the first thing I suggest people do when their trying to work through problems. Great advice and well put forth.
