I guess I would fit in with the talking-to-self people here. Oh yeah, and I have this strange wander-lust sometimes. Like last night, I was stuck seeing a show again, so instead of seeing the 2nd act, I wandered around outside for a good half-hour, arguing stupid things with myself. And got weird looks from the one car that drove by.

I do something similar. Whenever I'm in class, I always have to be fiddling with something, whether it's scissors or a pen cap or whatever. If I don't it's like I tune out on whatever the teacher is saying.

I forgot one that's even weirder. I go out after twilight and walk around the blocks in my neighbourhood, while listening to music. But thats not the weird part. I get so into my music I sing. Out loud. While walking. In my neighbourhood. After dark.

I can't be in a room with uncovered windows when it's dark outside. And by that, I mean: I get shivers and sweating when I am in such a room at night. It's always great when people look at me like I'm a psycho when I just leave a room without any curtains and refuse to get back in. Persecution complex, anyone?

I get the feeling that everybody can read my mind when I stand in front of people. Then I think embarassing thoughts then I feel all weird cause I feel like everyone saw it.

I play my music really loud in my room so everyone has to listen to it.
it's Alternative if anyone wants to know.

I do that too! I'll be sitting in class daydreaming (mostly about furry things) and think, "Dang, it would be so awkward if everybody could hear what I was thinking."And then look around to make sure nobody just heard my though XD

on that note, I can think in words and pictures and movements.

Most people think in words.

I commonly censor my thoughts just in case anybody's reading them. It's stupid because I know no-one's listening to them, yet I still do it.

Oh my God, you just reminded me of a big one. Can't believe I didn't think of this until now.

I think in MOVIE SCENES. Basically, I get certain clips of movies in my head to respond to what I am doing; and it just happens like a reflex! For example: if I try to guess an answer to a question and get it wrong I'll get a clip of Lex Luthor saying, "WROOOONG!!!" It just happens right away by itself. I get this with dozens and dozens of clips from movies cause I remember a lot of them and how they would fit with any situation.

Speaking of which, my local church pastor thinks in cartoons, which explains why he is so silly.

I also think in pictures (including motion picture), and sound, But not in words.

But sometimes I also see a clip of something I thought of or something I saw. sometimes whenever I hear or do anything I get a flash back showing me something I don't want to see or do. But I shake my head as if I dunk my head in water and took back out.

Sometimes me and my brother say the same thing at the same time. (since we are Identical twins) I have even picked a shirt and he had the same thing on.

But the one thing that is a habit is when I talk to myself (also known as my mind). out loud sometimes.

personally, I like thinking in images... It makes reading a book so much nicer.
I honestly know why some people don't like reading books. They interpret it as words instead of a mental movie.

Then again, words are good for pulling together ideas and plans.

Yeah, even though sometime i'm wake mentally enough to read the words and see it mentally
