When you verbalize a thought it is a more active process and exposes your reasoning to higher, linguistic brain function. When you meerly "think" a thought, it is not as stringently reviewed by the rest of your brain. I verbalized thought has a harder time making it past logical shunts, or falacies, which may be below you conscious awareness. That being said, I think most people talk to themselves because they are lonely or just enjoy conversation, even if no one is around.

I don't know why...I just do it...but I agree with the first answer. I am a genius...and I talk to myself all the time (but only when I'm alone usually....and I'm usually alone....lol) When I'm with people, they also tell me I talk to much. I think my brain is too active for most people to handle
