My mom, a very bright and thoughtful woman, was a compulsive talker. She was terribly lonely and, I think, very frightened of being alone. She'd talk non-stop to a point at which people would very obviously avoid her. Sometimes I'd be close to tears (seriously) on the telephone; I couldn't get her off the phone. Compulsive talking can be a real problem.
