> I used to from time to time imagine my half of a conversation in which I was showing around someone notable who had traveled through time to get to the present day. Maybe someone from 1,000 years ago or maybe from 50. That is, for entertainment, not to cope with anything. I never felt like my imagination was quite good enough to turn it into fiction.
I do this exact same thing.
I also have conversations with random people in my life, explaining what I’m doing and what I’m thinking to them. When I have an inner monologue, I don’t think of it as talking to “myself”, but rather the imagined presence of some friend or family member. I have no idea how normal this is.

- james_s_tayler 7y agoI don't do the first part, but I do do the second one.
- roelschroeven 7y agoI do the same thing. I'm not sure if that counts as evidence towards it being normal.

Very rarely to "myself", nearly always someone else.
