I sometimes think I may have something similar to tourettes. It’s not involuntary, I can stop it when I’m around people for the most part. But I’ve always had moments of stammering and often move from inner monologue to speaking to myself out loud without realising. It’s caused multiple awkward moments with people I encounter. One woman was so scared as she was getting out of her car with me speaking to myself on the street next to her that she immediately got back in and drove away.
I moved from that to making random and mostly obscene statements when I’m on my own a few years ago.
I put it down to living alone for the last 14 years.
Inner monologues are useless. I talk to myself out loud

Same. My dog probably thinks I’m crazy. She might be right 🤔
