The reason I talk to myself is to focus my thoughts. Also, I didn't have safe relationships growing up. I don't have a lot of close connections in my social life now that I'm older. I need to hear a voice, so I use my own, since I usually can't rely on other people. I talk to myself on purpose.
It seems many people do the same for similar reasons. I don't think that talking to yourself outloud (in and of itself) is a bad thing. Actually, dissociation is often adaptive. When these things start interfering with the core areas of your life, that's when it deserves attention. Sounds like it's been helpful for you.
The first time I made the decision to leave my reality, truly knowing and making that decision, was a powerful moment. I learned to use that power to survive my worst parts.
It's remarkable to find your comment, thank you . I am dealing with C-PTSD , in a long term stalking without legal remedy , no restraining order possible. Dissociation was tearing me apart until I made it a friend . I can now walk outdoors knowing perfectly well the stalker is often around and feel little. I have come to embrace the freedom in emotional numbing . No one can feel fear 24/7/365 so I just don't. Wishing you well.
Turn to Jesus He loves you, He is the healer of the body And savior of the soul, There is True Hope in Jesus, God protects Psalms 91, He is the God of miracles Acts 2:21 And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved Jesus alone saves Trust Him with your salvation John 3:16 1 Corinthians 15 1-4 Moreover Brethren, i declare unto you the gospel which i preached unto you, which also ye have received, and with wherein ye stand By which also ye are saved, if you keep in memory what i preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain, For i delivered unto you first of all that which i also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures And that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the scriptures, Take care
Glad to know that I am not going senile, but "only" experiencing dissociation a lot of times after years-long chronic traumatic stress (and loneliness which, for primates, is extremely stressful on the brain.) Grounding, yes, helpful. Working on reducing stress and healing from stress, critical.
It is a sign of intelligence. You are reasoning , organizing your thoughts verbally. For example, practicing speaking skills before a speech, or studying for a test , memorizing important facts. This is recommended by teachers and professors to learn new information or practice verbal presentations. Thinking out loud is not an illness. Ridiculous!
I have 8 of those symptoms on a regular basis. I'm diagnosed with Depression and CPTSD. I never thought of those things as forms of dissociation. I do feel more grounded and more "myself" when I'm playing my guitars. It's become like a therapy for me. I should probably talk this over with someone. Thanks for the insights.👍
Once I move from a place or quit a job. I disconnect from everyone and everything. I can literally forget about people, which feels great. I try to never look back😒🤦🏽♀️ Unfortunately, other people can’t let go and move on. I keep everyone at a distance because I don’t have time for the nonsense that people indulge in🥴
Similar deal here. Also with exes. I've heard so much from people who are still 'friends' with exes. Why? Truly, I don't get it. It's like keeping a dead plant around. What are they clinging to? Not to mention that subsequent gf/bfs are forced to see/deal with/hear about their old baggage they're still inexplicably lugging around, which is very unfair and disrespectful to the new person. For me, once we are broken up, you simply cease to exist. Over and out, like I never knew you, no matter how long we were together It's very easy.

Thank you for a clear and understandable description of a condition we are all susceptible to. Here is a POV from the perch of experience: Have you ever been physically close to an explosion? Have you ever had a soul wrenching life experience? I have had both happen to me. I can report that they have similar effects but on different parts of you. Disorienting is a term that can be applied to both physical and emotional trauma, only, the physical recovers in a more predictable and observable way. The emotional/mental/spiritual trauma is more subtle, often less observable, but can take a longer time to recover from.
I like how you framed that out. By physical trauma, I assume you are talking about physical injuries. If so, I agree entirely. I only ask that because the impact to your nervous system can be significant and complex to treat... because some treatments that help some a lot, trigger others. So, finding the right approach can take a bit of effort.
"Unravelling"... that's an interesting term and likely very descriptive of your experience. Dissociation is adaptive mechanism that disconnects us from ourselves and our pain for sure. This is why working to lessen it needs to be done in a manner that respects its adaptive function.
Is it wrong to enjoy disassociating? I have no intention of even trying to recover from disassociating unlike how much I'd like to recover from my off the charts anxiety, depression & CPTSD. Except for the clumps of memory losses I find dissociating very pleasant.
I just looked at your list of videos & read your description. I've subbed & looking forward to watching all your videos. Blessings to you & your new channel🤍
It is not wrong to want to continue dissociating at all! It is completely understandable! After all it develops as a means of coping with extreme stress and psychological overwhelm. And the anxiety and depression that can come with CPTSD can be extremely disruptive (to say the least). And, I've seen individuals lessen the dissociation before they are able to self-regulate and it can be pretty rough. All that said, it doesn't mean doing things to decrease the fight or flight (hyperarousal) isn't worthy of doing... as that lessens than your need to dissociate does too.
you could be a yoga insyructor and have them do the hum in a relaxed pose with the stare at object in the room. Easy money. Every busy yoga instructorni know makes great money. Austin has tons of them.
Dissociation can absolutely become profound and impactful and it can be extremely difficult to get yourself back for sure. I have not experienced a case that was irretrievable. I love brainspotting, heartmath, and other approaches that help to self-regulate to start the journey back to yourself. It should be a slow and thoughtful effort.
Lifting weights brings me back into the present moment. The rest of the time its like watching my body and mind going through the motions of daily life through a sheet of glass. Im doing everything as normal but im not really there at all. I want to re connect but i cant get through. At least im still functioning though. I suppose the rest is patience while I heal.
That takes a lot of awareness just to notice the exception that happens when you're lifting weights! Sounds like it brings you into your body. I think for the same reason many people have said grounding exercises help them.
You just blew my mind. when I was a kid, and probably at times of stress either provoked by my parents or my siblings, I still remember going to the bathroom mirror and looking at a face and feeling not there, or as if... I remember once saying 'who are you?" and i had this very odd feeling like you said, of disconnection. I thought a lot about that, and repeated the experiment several times. in later years I tried to repeat it. and I wondered, all my life, WHAT WAS THAT feeling? and now I know. thank you. I have other experiences that were described by my dr as dissociation, so this really helps me. Thank you so much.
I’m unsure if I’m experiencing dissociation or just depression. The typical not being able to bring myself to care about much. Could be a part of getting older. That lack of relevancy they say you get although, I’m pretty content, I’m not being relevant, to the nothing that I see going on nowadays.
Not being able to care may or may not indicate you are experiencing depression; however, whether it is depression or dissociation, the fact that you're "pretty content" seems positive.
Have talked to myself most of my life. Always thought of it as thinking out loud. I am ADD and have an issue with processing. I don't have a conversation with myself. Just work through things in my head outloud. Have spaced out when driving. It usually happened when very stressed out. Also forget things all the time. I also attribute that to my ADD. I am easily distracted. I don'feel dissociative. As a former clinician I have worked with people who have DID and would see severely dissociate. Very differen't from the simple stuff.
I agree. Dissociation absolutely varies from mild to severe. The most extreme forms presenting as DID. Also, most people dissociate a bit here and there with no negative impacts to their life.
Oh, no! I talk to myself all the time! I even have imaginary conversations with other people. They never respond, though. It helps me clarify my own response to conflict and how I could have responded to it differently. Sometimes, it’s hilarious!
You seem to be in good company! As dissociation is adaptive, it would so, especially is talking to oneself (out loud)! I'm honestly in awe of how people have used this particular item to cope with some pretty troubling circumstances.
I don't think the doc said anything about talking out loud to yourself as something wrong. It is a coping strategy. I think the doc was simply informing that this can be a coping strategy that *may* become maladaptive, but isn't necessarily. Talk away! To yourself, I mean. I do. (lol)
I would imagine talking to yourself out-loud is one of those things people just sometimes do... not necessarily (on its own) out of the ordinary. Remember, that dissociation is a pretty powerful adaptive mechanism... it's the reason it is so common with complex PTSD... checking out can protect you from the impact of psychological overwhelm.
I am really isolated . I haven't seen a visitor in five years , had a hug since my best friend died in 2019. My health keeps me shut in most of the time , point being , I was beginning to fall into my own mind from days and days of not talking to anyone. I had to devise a method to cope with walls of silence ..so I began to talk out loud, laid on my bed and talked to my best friend now gone, for hours. Prayed out loud, sang songs and it really helped. Let me organise all of it, let me hear a voice, hear myself and helped me survive. I believe there is research on why it helps as a Gestalt type therapy.

Those are common diagnoses to go along with Complex PTSD. If you do not have trauma, likely not your situation, but if you do it may be something to investigate with your provider.
The first 2 types of this areexactly what I live every day. I always present positively when in fact I am sick with worry. To me, no one cares so why bring others down. The second one is very bad for me. I lose DAYS. I'll think it is a Monday and the find out it's Thursday! I have no idea what I did, ate, said on the other missing days. I have no recollection. It's scary.
It can be very scary for sure. For significant symptoms of dissociation, I think it is good to focus on increasing grounding (using grounding exercises) and addressing your nervous system activation. I like neurofeedback and network chiropractics to calm the nervous system. Also, you may want to look into approaches like brainspotting, heart math, and internal family systems to see if any of those approaches look good to you. I put links to RUclips videos that describe each on my website at www.resolvetorise.com/trauma-and-treatment.

When dissociation is severe it can be hard to differentiate from a psychotic break. That being said, disconnecting to protect yourself from the psychological impacts of trauma when the trauma is severe and repetitive is commonplace. Psychological testing can sometimes help you differentiate, but is somewhat limited.
#2 sometimes #9 sometimes #10 sometimes #11 always, everyday #12 sometimes I often cannot completely account for what I did, watched, ate or drank during most of the last 24 to 36 hours. I just can't remember. I often can only remember the past few days or weeks in small pieces. I started to wonder whether it was early signs of Alzheimer's or something. Maybe its the PTSD.
Just wanted to say thank you for this video, this helped so much for me, knowing there is some kind of explanation and not just being crazy after a lot of trauma. You explained it so very well, thank you so much.
I'm assuming since you mentioned the conversation issue in the past tense, things are improving. Memory loss is all to common when you have a troubling childhood; it's actually adaptive.
The reason I talk to myself is to focus my thoughts. Also, I didn't have safe relationships growing up. I don't have a lot of close connections in my social life now that I'm older. I need to hear a voice, so I use my own, since I usually can't rely on other people.

Love that!
@@resolvetorise been talking to the parts, the consensus is one of mutual appreciation for you content. Kind regards Ryan
@@ryandavis6660 Thank you so much!
I can't remember most of my childhood and it had gotten to a point I couldn't make it through a 20 second conversation
I have been healing for the last several yrs though so it's so much better
I'm assuming since you mentioned the conversation issue in the past tense, things are improving. Memory loss is all to common when you have a troubling childhood; it's actually adaptive.
@@resolvetorise yes much better. Thank you.
@@TerraAnn44 I'm so glad!!
Way too much hand movements! Distrscting.
Thanks for your feedback. I do tend to move my hands when I speak. :)
