What language do you think in, if you speak more than one?

[Twist]

Beans, is it normal? I do it subconsciously when I'm alone, but I refrain from it in public. Reading is difficult for me, without sometimes even mouthing the words. I think I'm retarded.

Hargaysa, my thoughts are completely incoherent and incomprehensible. I can easily switch from thoughts on particular styles of jeans to geopolitics and views of humanity. Most of my thoughts streamline toward a fatalist understanding of the universe.

Can you write a book about yourself? It will be easy for me to know about myself a lot better.

[Alphanumeric]

^^^^ I thought that was normal. Sometimes,words even escape.

The number is increasing by the minute.

PS: *aherm* My worst time is when I am driving. If someone hides a camera in the car they will die of laughter.

I preform a commentary on driving etiquette and break out into random song, if I'm alone.

[Hyperactive]

When I think, my tongue moves inside my mouth.

Adding this all up, there may be something wrong with me.

i dont do that but when im thinking, even without opening my mouth, i feel my throat dry, like i was talking all the time.lol

[Alphanumeric]

Lol, write a book? I've been reading the same one for six months.

hyper, that happens if I read too much. A couple hours on this forum kills. I'd need to take a break by watching a show or getting some shah.

[Twist]

Like the 100th time or you read 1 page per day? lol

You and Nanees must be completely the opposite then. There was a day she was talking about reading several books in few days (or was it in a day? Can't remember).

[Beans]

Alpha lools maybe i do it so much i assumed it was normal. When i have a lot of my mind,i have to physically try to maintain ma lips sealed to prevent ma thoughts from becoming mumbled words.

The main issue of reading is numbers.I can hardly ever dial a phone number correctly the first time. I always screw the order.
Twist finding he isnt as normal as he thought

[Alphanumeric]

I'm on page 200/800+.

I'm pretty certain Nanees has some degree of OCD. We may have similar tastes, but no, lol, we're very different.

Beans, the only way I can explain my issue with reading is if I show you.

[Twist]

LOL @ Beans. I am as normal as they come, sxb.

The only OCD I can relate to is when I was young (even in my teen years), I used to enjoy this word-letter counting challenge between my classmates & myself.

For example, when we leave school & walking along-side the street, one of us reads the name of a shop or a restaurant and we have to say how many letters in the word (the longest & most difficult word the better) & the person that counts the letters of that word in their head and say it fastest & correct is the winner. I used to kick their asses all the time.

I hope that wasn't OCD, was it?

[Beans]

Maybe the book is that boring Alpha. Do u still remember the beginning of the story after such a while? podcasts might work.

Twist i am all for having cams in everyones car.Pure entertainment happens there. Aniga for that would be at work in ma little corner.I am glad there is no camera near there.

Lools That isnt bad. U gotta find something fun when young. That a unique way of doing this. Aniga i used to memorize license plate numbers of cars passing by almost every morning on my way to school.If i saw the same cars almost every day,they get a star.

[Alphanumeric]

Lol, no, OCD would be the overwhelming need to count the letters in every third word on ever other sign you come across. I did, and still do, play with tiles and patterns on the floor when walking.

Beans, the problem is I tend to disagree with the character's decisions and project myself into the role, and before I know, I'm reading a book that doesn't exist.

BTW, that isn't the physical problem. That would need to be seen.

Wow! And were you able to identify what number plates you saw the day before etc? You must have photographic memory then!

And what about faces? Are you good at identifying faces whether you saw them before or not?

A1, OK, I'll admit it. I have this fixation with odd numbers (it was even numbers when I was young). For example, I count things, like any objects anywhere, and I prefer them to be odd. If not, I would try to find one more to make it odd or something makes me uncomfortable.

I literally cannot recognize someone who changes their appearance, or is in a place they usually aren't. I've pissed a few people off because of this.

[Beans]

Twist i suck at adding a name to a face. I do remember faces very well.I would look at the person and be like " i know u but where and why i dont know" and because of that,sometimes i pretend i dont remember them.


Alpha lools were u afraid i was gonna if u enacted the books at home? I have heard of people getting emotionally involved in a character.That would pose a problem i think. I rarely get involved and the very rare time it happened it was books on something real and i might have met or know someone in a similar situation.I loved medical based books but stopped reading them coz of that.

[Alphanumeric]

Twist, lol, yeah, that's a bit of OCD.

Beans loool, no, wouldn't be any dramatizations. Just on paper, words move around, lines disappear, and I'd have to read the same paragraph a few times just to understand it. In order to study, I'd have to turn my mind off each time and cram in as much as I could while restraining my thoughts. Usually lasted a half hour before a headache.

[Twist]

Though we have our differences in many things, I realized over the years, in Slife and this little time in here, that we also share some characteristics + kinda similar attitude towards marital life and I can understand now where all this is coming from. It's starting to make sense.

Good night/day.
