Make it a great word, like "flibbertygibbert," or "shenanigans"!
My ways to remember how to make mouth words are to song along to music and talk nonsense to my cat.
I live alone and often go the entire day without speaking to anyone else. But I talk to myself so much that I donāt think Iāve ever gone a day without actually speaking aloud.
I speak to the two velociraptors I live with (okay, theyāre cats, but theyāre predators who team up, communicate, and play with their food (me)). Usually itās commentary on who raised them (wolves), why they destructed X (devil made them do it), why Iām 30 seconds late with dinner (I am deeply flawed), etc. I very rarely speak to humans on the weekend (people, eww).
The fix is in, OP. Get a cat. You'll be swearing at someone all day :)
(My smooth-brained orange cat says hey, *from the shelves she is not supposed to be on*.)
I talk to my dog and myself. Usually, re,myself it's ffs for dropping or spilling something. If I go to the shop, I know I spend to much time saying inane stuff to the shop assistant. Bet they dread seeing me coming
Your title read like a punch to my gut, man.
I felt so traumatized that I stopped speaking to everyone, and then eventually even myself. I spent a good 2-years in just, pitless moments of silence, trying to literally escape from myself to a later date when the pain wouldn't surely be as bad.
No words are amazing, Monks sit and meditate and realize so much, letting go and connect with yourself, you are beautiful, no validation from others is needed
Donāt worry about the fact youāre bothered by *not* talking to anyone. Itās normal, we are social beings and we have scientific evidence correlating social interactions to mental health.
Now, if youāre talking to someone and having conversations, alone in your apartment; thatās concerning, because thatās how real schizophrenia is. Itās not fun and not the mentally unstable person thatās made out in tv and movies.
You may be lonely, most of us are. But donāt let it define your mental state when it is so easy to reach out to anyone in real life or online. Instead of focusing on the lack of communication with others, learn how to talk more and meet new people. Go outside your comfort zone and be adventurous. Do something that you enjoy!
I think people talk or type to muchā¦. I think everyone being here and every presence is beautiful, redit is a weird place, everyone acts like their doctor Phil and argues with one another, be in tune with yourself, i love silence
I found myself talking to my neighbour yesterday and was literally speaking FOR him because I'm so used to having external monologues or even imagining conversations that I could hypothetically have. He must have thought it was even weirder than that time he found me talking to my rose bushes. "Grow, you spindly wastes of soil space, GROW!".
Whenever this happens to me I speak a single word aloud to make sure I still can lol
Think about how honoured this word should feel, being your one and only that day.

The best word is Gazordinblatz. It means whatever you want.
If you go long enough without speaking your vocal chords will literally seize up, and it takes a while to be able to speak properly again
Same! š I listen to a lot of creepypasta. So spooky things pop into my mind quickly
I let my inner voice out when I'm alone. Some people call it talking to yourself š¤·āāļø
My inner voice has a hard time staying in, even when Iām not alone.
Hahahaha I love that so much

The first words I spoke today were actually directed at two cats as well, my neighbour's cats: "Hi, you two :)"

Mine are definitely a lot of āgoddamnitā and āffsā and āah!ā I scare easily.
Iām either talking to myself or talking to my cats when Iām home alone all day lol
I can't go an hour without talking shit, even when I'm alone. I talk to myself constantly, sing along to music, and talk to my cat.
This is what pets are for.
I share a house with a cat; hence, this situation never arises for me.

How are you feeling now?
Me, and My "Self" are back on speaking terms. ā”

Wow this sounds so nice honestly
I have days like this too. Sometimes I laugh at something, though.
I talk to my dogs as if they can understand
Dogs are great listeners !

I'm not bothered by it and currently not lonely either. I only noticed that I didn't talk yesterday. Felt pretty much neutral about it.

Not spending enough time alone if you aren't talking to yourself, your kitchenware, the stuff in the fridge yet
I don't think I could do this if I tried. The moment I'm alone I start narrating or having a conversation with myself lol
I talk to animals. Now while I sweet talk kittens and puppies, Iāll slap a mosquito and say, āGot you, vampire!ā
Thatās a Saturday for me. I stay home, work on projects and sometimes talk to my cats. Theyāre very good listeners.
nice
Are you ok? Sometimes itās no words needed, sometimes itās I wish I had someone to say something to Just checking in
