    If that’s happening to anyone, it lowkey just means that you’re really stressed out about something(s), and not talking about it. In my experience, it’s because the person in question is either bottling it up, or spending too much time alone.

    If that’s a sign of mental illness then ADHDers are in shambles.

      ADHD is a mental illness though.

          One definition I saw suggests a mental illness is treatable.

            It’s general practice to provide a reference when one claims to have such, all due respect.

    I was arguing with a wife I made up in my head about not wanting to go to some event and her being mad at me because I was mopey the whole time. Even though I told her I wasn’t going to have a good time and she could just go without me. This happens every time and I don’t know why she keeps asking.

    Anyway my fantasy wife and I are getting a divorce.

    For anyone wondering: No, this is not a sign of a mental illness. Talking to yourself is completely normal.

    See, that’s why you build a therapist in a box inside your head, so it can mediate between the other aspects of your inner processes

    How is it “mentally ill” to converse with yourself?

      It’s not and I’ve been telling myself that for years.

      The idea is not that the conversation is illness, but that one might ‘hear’ what was said by the objectified self inside their head and recognize it as the sort of thing they’d more easily recognise as a sign of mental illness if said by someone else.

        right, that’s evident from the OP image. I’m asking why they’d “recognize it as the sort of thing they’d more easily recognise as a sign of mental illness if said by someone else”

          Ah. Okay then. Sometimes looking at yourself from the perspective of the other can help you see things that are more visible from outside.

          For example: you could ‘hear’ yourself make a joke in your head about not wanting to go home and, because you have the perspective granted by being both the joker and the listener, you might be able to read that as the sort of joke someone might make when in an abusive relationship. Same goes for a joke about suicide, paranoiac explanations, etc. Finding a way to give yourself enough emotional distance from your own thoughts to judge them objectively is actually a part of certain styles of therapy. OP is essentially describing a certain kind of epiphany that can come from introspection, whether alone or guided by a therapist.
