Conversation in my head

Flossie

Is it an autistic thing to have a constant commentary going on in my head, going over and over either what I should be doing g, or obsessing about something that’s stressing me, or commenting on what I am currently doing as though I have no control? 
It drives me mad, and I have to constantly listen to podcasts or TV to shut it up.

  • I have this. It feels like I have two streams of thought running simultaneously. One is engaged in the thing I am doing and the other is observing and commenting on it. It's definitely my own voice but I wish it would bugger off sometimes and let me just enjoy something!
