I engage in lively conversations with myself quite often - especially when driving the miles I do each day. If I feel uneasy, I just hold the cellphone up near my mouth and talk away, so that I don't get too many strange looks from fellow drivers.

But nowadays everyone is hands free and yacking away. So, it's safe and as you say, therapeutic to talk to oneself ... and others. I'll add that in as well.

After all, we actually do know ourselves best, so we might as well consult the expert when trying to sort something out. Cheers, Doc.
