I think I have some kind of mental problem but I don t know what it is?
So I m 16 years old and I ve actually had this problem for basically all my life.one thing I ve noticed about my mind is that the same thoughts occur in my head all the time. Another thing is that I always have conversations with people in my head, but never in real life. I ve always been shy at school, but i always have something to say in my head but never speak it out cause it comes so natrual for me to think about saying something when I m in the group but I never speak it out. Also I struggle to focus on the present moment and am always living in my own world as if to speak . And when I listen to music, it s usually to make me think of something as far as making me happy rather than focusing on the lyrics. I just don t feel like a normal 16 year old kid and I want to Change because if I don t then I will probaly have no social life or friends or anything and I ve always feared that.

I have sort of the same problem but I don't think it is a mental illness but a shy personality... being shy also comes white social awkwardness and thinking/talking In you head a lot because it's harder to socialize wanted to not talk bc your either afraid or it's hard for you to share stuff. It's normal for shy people who are extrovert and want to be around people but just can't because you are so shy. I love being around people and talking but I'm extremely shy and it's hard for me to talk without feeling akward or stupid, so I end up critiquing past conversations and making them perfect, planning conversations or talking to fake people trying futilely to improve my talking skills... I think it's working. I also talk to myself to keep myself busy and think about things. I have conversations. With myself to work through things and when I try to think logically (I basically have an mini bebate between two things I think are may be right and I'm supporting both sides.
