Am I going insane?
I know I know, pretty stupid question (lots of people ask it for stupid reasons).

With me though, I have entire conversations with people that I know in real life in my head. I will act it all out in my head, and sometimes it has come to the point where I thought that the conversation or actions I had thought of were entirely real. It may have taken a few hours for me to even figure out that they weren't real but only things I have thought of.

I resolve all of my issues with imaginary phone calls (as in, I call people in my head, talk to them in my head and make up their response (sometimes I don't), and then somewhat resolve my issue that I may be having).

So, that makes me half insane?

I do the same thing, but less... you know. It's like, if there's a problem to be solved, I think about the conversation, think of ways they could react and act it all through in my head. I don't know why, maybe just to calm me down a little and make me less nervous about the conversation.

My sessions can last for up to 20 minutes, and sometime I convince myself they are real and even ask the person who I thought I was talking to the next day about it. When I realize they have no idea what I'm talking about I finally realize that it wasn't real.

you're not insane, everyone resolves their problems differently.

it's just an active imagination, enjoy having it while you're young
