I tend to speak too fast - I'm an impatient person & try not to interrupt people who speak too slowly.  I do, however, use proper grammar & sentence structure.  \n\nSide note: I type the same way: 75wpm.

Some people just talk to themselves. I do it because Im the only one who cares what I say....LOL!!! You have to retrain yourself not to do it anymore.

Yes, strictly speaking it should be "I do" or just "I", but it just sounds so pretentious. It's not the way we speak in everyday converstaion.

I wish I knew why and how to stop it. My teen says "like" every other word. It gets so bad I either correct him or just stop listening. I CAN'T listen to him without counting the "likes" and it makes me so nervous I just want to scream.

You sound like someone who is posing.  Am I right?

Yes. it happens some times. Its as if the other person is speaking a foreign language. When you tell them sorry i blanked out, they take it bad. They prob think u think that they are boring.

Every single day....As long as I don't answer myself I guess I'm still pretty sane.  I talk to myself when I realize I have forgotten something, or put something away and can't remember where I put it.  I talk to myself when people just act stupid and you want to tell them off but keep it to yourself.  I talk to my self at times when I think I might have approached a situation differently or when I have to say something to someone, that I say the right thing.

I do.\nAnd me too.\nOh I'm confused - a little spaced out perhaps.

I have done this before. Its so funny because the start of the conversation is quite grown up and sensible and then after a few glasses it just turns to filthy talk and silly voices!!

When I get into explaining something I have noticed that I use "and everything else" quite often after I finish a point.  I blame my father for that one.  He used to say that all the time!\n\nFirewater shots!

I do this and I usually just say it over and over in my mind.  You could say it softly out loud if you wish but it works just as well if you are silent.

nope.\n\nit might simply be that you're thoughtful, slow to speak, but when you DO speak you have something to say.\n\nI'll bet you correct yourself a lot.\nI'll bet you proof read your stuff a lot.

Hmmmm... does ANYONE hear the same voice when they think to themselves?  I don't think I actually THINK in a voice, and I guess it's kind of eerie if you think about it... I think in words, but there is no specific VOICE to it.  But, do stutterers STUTTER when they think?  I don't think so... the problem with stuttering is you think faster than your mouth can speak... or that's one of the problems.  As for the mentally challenged... wow, I don't know.  It's a very interesting question... I think they probably think in the same IQ level that they are, but if they talk out loud slowly, I don't think that they would do the same in their thoughts.  But I guess you'd have to ask someone who actually is mentally challenged to be sure...
