Talking all the time.... to himself!!

[Lilibet1]

Hi there,
My OH Brian has started talking to himself constantly. He doesn't just chat he has full blown conversations to other people' he even tells jokes and laughs . This might not sound too bad but it worries me as he obviously sees people all the time.
We are having the CPN round for the first time on Monday as well. What can we expect from them and what type of help will they be able to offer?
If anyone can answer any of these queries i would be grateful (sorry this sounds like a letter but it's the best way i can write) Lillibet

I have this problem too. It started with his friend in the mirror (reflection) and now seens to have progressed to a lot of the time but not continuously, thank goodness. He doesn't tell jokes but has long conversations. I'm afraid I leave him to it, just putting in a word or two when it looks as though he might be talking to me which, to be honest, isn't that often these days unless it's abusive. I'm sorry I don't know what the answer is but as long is he is happy....... Would be glad to hear if anyone has an answer.

My mom had this problem too, she used to point to deceased relatives/pets or just strangers where there wasnt anyone

My husband does the same thing too. He talks to his reflection and the pictures and photos on the wall. He's actually more lucid talking to himself than he is when he talks to me. I've got used to it now but it did upset me when it started.
