I catch myself in the middle of it and have to remind myself that it isn't real and I'm not really doing that (scenario). Is there a reason or name for this? Help please it's interfering with my everyday life.

I thought I was the ONLY one who did this. I've been talking to myself, acting out scenarios, and even doing this out loud since I was a kid. It's to the point where I had to restrain myself so I won't do it in public. My biggest fear is getting into a relationship and having my SO finding this out. I read somewhere that it could be a type of dissociation to cope with trauma. I was severely abused as a child and went through trauma as an adult.

There has a to be a label for this because I want it to stop.
