I soliloquise more often than is probably considered healthy, regardless of whether there is a mirror in the room, in fact more likely not as I tend to do it while pacing around the room.......I swear I'm not crazy.........

Not aloud, just sort of mouthing the words/ under my breath. It's not a two way conversation (though i sort of wish it was) but more like me being talked to by another version of me who exists only as a reflection and thusly has no stake in whatever situation calls from a pep talk from parallel universe me.

What happens is i think something and my reflection responds silently to that thought as i hear his words in my head. I may then temporarily "become him" in order to do what i'm nervous about doing, once the task is finished, i return to normal me.

This isn't goong to look good on my psychological profile.

In the mirror, in my car, at work, in transit from work to car, at the computer, to my dog... and occasionally to actual people.

I talk to myself when walking down the street (often out loud) or in the shower, not in the mirror.

Can't say that I do but I do talk to myself sometimes, just not in front of the mirror.

Yeah, but to be fair I talk to myself all the time. Mostly in my head. Helps me think. Quite fun actually.

I lost myself once in a mirror. I was just staring at it, and all of a sudden an hour and a half had passed, and I hadn't moved. I may be losing my mind...
i'm guilty of doing that too...

Talk? No. I did once give myself a solid headbutt after I got hammered. Smashed it to bits.

I also just talk to myself when alone, but not in mirrors, I don't like the way I look when I talk.

I make faces in the mirror and laugh but not talk. Sometimes I laugh pretty hard at how much of an idiot I'm being. Thats not weird right?

I sometimes practice talking to hypothetical people, but the only times I directly address me are those occasions where I feel the need to mildly berate myself for acts that are incredibly stupid in hindsight. And I'm not usually in front of the mirror for those occasions.

Not usually in front of the mirror, more often when I'm at work. Because I work in a fairly loud setting and I'm on my own most of the time doing monotonous things I have to entertain myself somehow. I often end up talking to myself about what I'm doing under my breath or getting angry at inanimate objects for not doing what I want them to. I should mention I'm also usually high on caffeine when I do my job...

I tend to talk to myself a lot, but only occasionally in the mirror. Most of the times I talk to myself are when I'm bored, alone, in bed, or simply feel like saying something. Whenever I do talk to myself I...well, I pretend I make Youtube videos, have discussions about issues or arguments, put together entire stories, create fake personas with weird voices, and simply ramble on about nothing.

I've actually been known to talk in my sleep, but I don't have any memory of what I've said.

I don't use mirrors for talking to myself, I use them for practicing facial expressions. I usually talk to myself on the walk between the subway and my house - I try to use a different voice every day. Either that or I whistle improvised tunes.

Not specifically in the mirror, but pretty much everywhere, at school, when i'm reading, when i'm running, even when i'm taking part in the forums. I also internalize conversations, trying to predict how they will play out. It only gets weird when someone ask's me if I'm talking to myself, when it's easiest to just say yes, try to change the subject and hope that they drop it.
