I honestly tend to try and avoid too much self-reflection.
I find I only focus on negative things and go round and around in my head stressing out about how I dont think i eat enough vegetables and convince myself I'm going to die and then drink beer and fall asleep. As dramatic as that sounds its not far from the truth, so i just let life roll on and see what happens.. seems to be working just fine. If you ask anyone who knows me they'll say however that all I do is think and that they can almost hear my brain ticking away. |

Seriously, yes, fairly often.
And yes, I think it can be done too much and you end up running around in self-berating circles twisting yourself into a state of psychological paralysis. Sometimes you just have to let go and live!

I often repeat things people have said, under my breath, or things from the television. Especially in their accent/ cadence. In fact when we were in Glasgow I was very wary that Dani and Limey would hear it and think I was odd. Okay, I doubt it's real echolalia, I do it to amuse myself. I didn't do it as a child, as I had plenty of people to talk to then! |

OMG, people always ask me what's wrong!! I've decided I must look grumpy or something. And the repeating thing? I whispered it to myself when I was younger, refining what I'd said. I find that I sometimes do that now, unconsiously, but out loud...to the person I'm speaking to. How annoying is that? I snap my mouth shut sometimes, thinking..hell, I just said that! Why am I saying it again with a slight inflection change. Sheesh. Oh, and my partner does this (silently)...except he changes my responses in his repetitions. And then, is sometimes confused as to what I actually DID say.

I thought that was just my older brother being a dick.
