What kind of Psyche disorders would make some one talk to them self all the time!?
I know someone who talks to himself all the time!. It is habitual!. He does it literally all the time!
Some people, even a Psychologist and a Psychiatrist have told him it is normal for people to talk to them self once in a while!. However, this is not normal, he does it ALL the time!
He has ADHD, low self esteem and seems to be a little depressed and does not have very many friends!.
I think, maybe all those things may have something to do with the reason why he does it, but I don't know for sure!.
What could cause someone to do this!? Like I say, he does it almost literally all the time!. People make fun of him for it!. He can't seem to control it!. He does not do it on purpose!. It is involuntary!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Your friend has issues and needs help and meds thats for sure!. What the reason is for him doing this are far and many!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have no idea what it is called but it could be something!. When I was hospitalized the nurse had to tell us about a paitent so we wouldnt tease him or anything!. He didnt have an internal monolouge!. She didnt say what it was called but it was an actual aspect of his disorder!. He would just go on and on and on!. Not like conversatins with himself aloud but just like what you would think about as you look about a room just out loud!.

etc etc!.

If he does it that way!.!.!.!. like all his thoughts are just spoken its apparently something!. If he just talks to himself a lot I dont knowWww@Answer-Health@Com

First, one would have to clarify: is he talking to himself while knowing there isn't really an answer to be expected OR is he talking to himself because he is answering running questions in his head or if there is a running monologue about which he is commenting!?

Talking to himself just out of habit, not in response to other voices in his head=normal!.
Talking to himself because he has running questions being asked of him in his own head or because he has an internal monolgue of voices=abnormal!.

The main possible disorders corresponding with the abnormal are: schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or mood disorder with psychotic features!.

Schizophrenia, the most common psychotic disorder, is generally characterized by hallucinations or delusions!. These could be in the form of recurrent voices in the patient's head to which the patient is often observed responding!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
