question please help
 

I'll try....O.K. say I am asking you how was your day? while I am saying that in my mind I get a visual picture of the words and I'm at the same time like spelling it out....Its really weird and I don't know what to think about it? I can still concentrate on what I'm talking about and listen to whoever is talking to me but still I just don't know if this is like a symptom of something bad --- I was diagnosed with bipolar about 5 yrs ago although I don't believe it's the correct diagnosis....I was going thru so much at that time in my life --- if you wanna know more just ask and thanks for your reply Incandescence :)

I think it's normal?

I get that, sometimes. Or like, I type things out in my head. Haha, I think I send too much time on the computer =P

Sorry this isn't helpful, but I wouldn't think it's something you need to worry about too much as long as it isn't like, interfering with your life or anything. Just try and ignore it? Or you know, don't try, but also don't focus on it too much. If that makes sense.

I do that; normally with punctuation like I'll say something then add "question mark" and visualise the ? in my head. Occasionally with single words if they come to mind as well.

I don't think it's really a problem, just try not to focus on it too much and like other people have said just try to ignore it. If it really bothers you mention it to your GP/psych but I wouldn't worry.

I sometimes visulise what i am saying in my head, i think the more you focus on it the more you will be aware of it. Like the oht ers have said the best thing is probably to try and ignore it and i think its probably more common than you think, its just no one mentions it.
Try not to worry about it, but if its really bothering you have a chat with your doctor.

this happens to me too, and the punctuation thing, i visualise all the letters and punctuation and sometimes the voice in my head says it too...it just makes me laugh when it happens to me, like its a game or something..ok now im sounding wierd lol
i agree that it probably is more common than you think...and if you are worried about it have a talk with your doctor...you got any plans to talk to your dr about it?
