Because it is a habit we have created since we were kids. And just like stopping any habit, it takes vigilance and time. I usually ask myself questions outside of the "imaginary conversation". Is this helpful right now? Is this truthfully preparing for conversations with this person? Don't I have better use of "this time" rather than writing scripts that are obviously not entertaining to anyone but myself? Is this being passive-aggressive against myself? Wouldn't it be better to go cook, study, read, do a project?

People also have imaginary convos with others in the their minds bc they have no one to talk to. No one to express themselves to. That person might have some friends they are comfortable with but that number is very low. They might not see their friends often so they have convos in their mind. This way they are not completely "alone". They express themselves to themselves. (speaking on this from personal experience)

I’ve been thinking through conversations for so long that it’s sometimes literally hard for me to just think for myself by myself. I might ask myself a question like ”what should I do?" and I run into a mental block, just silence. Like it’s so weird to just think for myself and not through a conversation with an imagined third person. Then I will have a conversation with that imaginary third person (a therapist, psychiatrist, all-knowing thing, it doesn’t really matter) about this and how annoying it is. I don’t have anyone I am able to open up to about these things, except my psychiatrist whom I get to rarely see, so I just open up to myself and it drives me crazy. It takes so much mental energy and time, just opening up to myself and ruminating on the same things everyday, and don’t get me started on the imaginary arguments, dissecting of past events and practicing for future convos. Daydreaming and imaginary conversations can be fun sometimes, but I just wish I can get to have these conversations in real life and live out my dreams and be healthy, not just imagine it and how it would feel like.. i want to live man

sometimes I wonder if its all a symptom of the modern age with phones and stuff. Honestly, I find it easier to just blame the times I'm living in and let myself adapt to a lifestyle thats still fulfilling but without really having my own tribe. It could also be the town you live in , for example in from England and where I live is very cliquey. I of course still grieve the life I dreamt for it is so heartbreaking especially watching old movies like the breakfast club etc. But there are worse lives to be living , we aren't SO screwed and we have a big chance to have that life someday.. Also, it does absolutely suck being in a huge friend group where resentment and jealousy can easily creep in. To cope for now, I journal more, run , create art , join clubs, I got a cat, I read , go window shopping just to interact with people and be amongst others, listen to podcasts and my favourite , go to gigs by myself and end up meeting pretty cool people. I know it can sound repetitious and sort of like a distraction game but to me its more of being a kid and playing everyday. And I know im always present doing these things whether I have company or not. I do have some hope in my future that i'lll be with a group of people who I can be completely myself around and vice versa. . There is no shame in going a little insane for this desire and it absolutely makes so much sense why its becoming some kind of outbreak. I have three older sisters and I always thought they would of been my tribe growing up but as soon as social media raised they became completely distant to me but also from what I have noticed, themselves. So when you do things alone don't feel bad for having that empty feeling, the energy will flow into wonderful conversations someday, be patient by trusting yourself I believe in you

It's about past conversations I had with my toxic family, and things I wish I would have said at the time. I'm rehearsing what I'm saying back to the original conversation, then what I should have said. Now rehearsing what to say in the future.. I can hear what the people in my family are saying and what I'm saying. & The sad part is, I won't ever have these conversations with them because its best to cut them off anyhow as the interactions are very negative. I keep telling myself to stop it!!! It won't stop LOL. I have been doing this for a long time. I thought this was just me...

I'm always imagining him reacting or just watching me, and so I'm always trying to impress him, be it talking to a imaginary friend about a very intelligent and interesting topic, playing the got theme and/or some pink floyd song in the piano, just because I know he likes got and pink floyd, doing some kind of acrobatics, or just messing with wild animals (usually, some wild Australian spider), because I'm interested in that and I think the guy would find me very interesting too... or just talking about geography, because I know he likes geography and so do I... but, the truth is that, we are not even from the same country and well, he's way older than me... well, just 5 years, that's good actually.

Very genuine advice you have shared with us all. Thank you. 🙏I think the first step is the most important. Expressing yourself. For that other people around you should be kind enough to let you express yourself instead of telling you to stop thinking about it. Because you stop thinking about it only when you express it and just leave it out of your body and mind. For that people around you have to be kind and supportive. Maybe another way to take the advice would be to express yourself in that moment of conflict instead of keeping silent. Ofcourse, how you express your emotions matter a lot! But a decent expression of what you are feeling to that very person will help you avoid toxic situations later on. Because that is also living in the moment.

You are consuming too much information from watching these people, if you find yourself repeating the things they say in your head afterwards I can guarantee you that this is why it's happening, try to spend more time doing activities (particularly ones that require longer attention) instead of consuming information. Back in the days before the internet and before reading books was common, most people would only learn about things they needed to learn in their lives, but today people consume an amount of information that is way beyond their capacity to actually understand.

I feel that if you're experiencing built up emotions its best to release it through the visualization technique, that way you don't need to remove out the frustration physically. The same goes for pretty much any emotion. Just to add, I did the visualization technique for my obsessive conversations with myself, and today I managed to heal them entirely from the system. Thanks for the video, it clearly was a tool to encourage me to heal.

I agree! Visualizations are powerful! Glad you found peace in that instance. :)

Conversations in my head and playing pretend started this but at this point I do it 24/7 when I'm alone, I even do it at work. For me I almost always do it out loud now although it started internally, honestly tonight I was starting to think I was crazy and I'm so glad I started typing this type of shit into KZitem.

I thought I was alone. I only got 1 hour in at my remote internship today because I lost so many ranting in front of the mirror, in the shower, pacing around the house acting it out… Never have this problem when I stay outside or work an on-site job but I can’t chill at home for even 10 minutes without this happening. Have to not linger and force myself to run back out the door again. Someone should invent a buzzer that detects these thoughts somehow and zaps you back into focus.

If you're still working and get distracted, try doing 10 jumping jacks or pushups or something. Sun salutes followed by toe-touches. Get some blood flowing and then try jumping back into focus-mode! You got this!

And the times that I've noticed I don't imagine those things alone are when I'm exercising, or sitting around with pple talking sharing ideas and laughing recently I also noticed that I'm enjoying being with kids playing with them running around laughing actually doing some activities have been much helpful but not when I'm alone again doing nothing. Also in most cases I find myself trying very hard to create this moment of myself in my own real world continuing from where we left if it were plans or whatever it is.... So from my own point of view I think this may be reduced by finding some activities to do that may need ur full concentration for example if you are playing with kids it needs ur whole u, if u are talking to some pple or friends it also needs ur whole you doing some work that requires ur brains fanctionality will also need u to be fully there reading novels as well might help cz as u are deep into the story ur whole mind is focused on the story movies series etc just try being busy most of the time busy doing things that requires the whole u let's say u can't be with more pple like me or u can't be with kids too like myself try find a pet maybe that will keep u accompanied playing with it running around bla bla bla be busy with things that can fully occupy ur whole you get tired and sleep. This to us who loves creating such unrealistic scenes and moments from past present and feture repetitively 😂😂😂😂anyway thanks dear for sharing with us such a wonderful video I got shocked after searching for some ideas on this problem too like ohhh my Godness I'm not alone in this and I'm not really crazy as I thought I might be running mad😂😂😂😂
