What you describe with your husband is what I am talking about except I can take it to the next level and actually believe I have already had the conversation. I also have a running commentary in my head when others talk to me but can confuse my head chatter with actual conversation which leads to embarrassing consequences at times especially as I will break conversation mid flow because the convo in my head has become more interesting and so of I go. Is this normal? I know everyone talks to themselves in times of stress etc and that is normal but what if it carries on constantly to the point of sharing a private joke with yourself and finding this completely natural for you? I'm probably not explaining this right, ( have the same problem with PDoc), but I would be lost without "me", but need to know if this is classed as hearing voices in the typical description or is it alters or normal? Just really confused. Have tried to explain to my PDoc but I don't think she fully realises what I am saying, (prob the same here), this is constant. To put it plainly, everyone should understand the feeling of smiling at a remembered event and or sadness, but what if this event is in your head in that you had a conversation with yourself which you find hurtful or amusing but that conversation or event never really happened in the real world, just yours and sometimes the line gets blurred so you are unsure of real or fictional events so cannot trust your own memories because you are unsure if they are real or not. I hope that explains it better. Just really trying to describe this feeling is proving difficult so I hope it is coherant enough to understood by others
