They say the first sign of madness is talking to yourself, but some would disagree. Many individuals believe that talking to yourself can keep you sane. You may see people doing their grocery shopping and talking away to themselves to try to remember what they need. Some would say that a shopping list is a better option but many people will write a list but then forget to take it with them!
Another example of when people will talk to themselves is when they are confronted by stupid, arrogant people. Instead of losing their cool and doing or saying something that they will regret, they will talk to themselves to try to calm down.
So talking to yourself does not make you crazy, in some cases it can be a necessity. And, at the end of the day, your own advice is often preferable to that of some individuals. That is why it might be a good idea to invest in the 'Of Course I Talk to Myself I Need Expert Advice' patch from The Cheap Place. It will remind you that your own advice is often better than that given to you by others.
