Literally, I only become aware of what I said by hearing the words. It's just little sentences, just one at a time, that are really "out of place". That happens mostly when I am alone (thank God) and only just happened a few times when I was around others. It's on and off; comes and goes. I also type things I didn't mean to type sometimes, while I am thinking how to start writting something, I will type a few completely irrelevant words. I will also say a certain phrase without even thinking it or really choosing to, it just comes out, but that is a general phrase and always fits in so it's okay. It scares me, like how the hell do I say something that I didn't even think of?
here in america we have a word for this... "rambling" and "blurting" "Speaking before thinking"

children here in america are taught things like think before you speak. and how to talk in an orderly way, one step at a time. then when they reach high school they have to learn how to apply not thinking about how to say things for things like "brain storming" writing rough drafts, giving impromtu speeches, just go with the flow of what comes to mind first.

in other words here in america its normal to do this and we re taught to do this. it takes some work sometimes to figure out how much to tell people about what and when. some places, schools and types of therapy practice both types of communication and find ways to keep things simple and uncomplicated.

my suggestion if this continues to bother you talk with your treatment providers.
