I'm starting to have some experience which I find strange and disturbing
(which I had some months ago).

I would be walking around or sitting and talking with a friend in my head (ie. not aloud) as if she's right in front of me (she's obviously not) and then I'll change topic and then this will go on for the whole day. It's like a running commentary in my head.

Sometimes it's related, other times it is not. My thoughts are not racing
though, it's the speed of a normal conversation, the wierd part I find
is that I think of what I say as if this friend is right in front of me.

As far as I understand, "flight of ideas" is thoughts changing topics but just you thinking to yourself and not as though you are talking to a friend who is not there with you.

Sorry if I seem to be repeating myself but I find it a bit hard to articulate
what I am experiencing.

My pdoc put me on haloperidol which helped but the side-effects bother
me very much (ie. my whole body will jerk suddenly when I am not moving,
eg. at my desk resting my head on the table to take a break) so I went
off it. btw, I'm also on seroquel which is supposed to help too.
