Everytime I get a revelation on something or whatever I have an imaginary conversation with someone or a group depending on where this information would be appreciated the most. And in doing this I imagine them looking at me and everything that comes with a conversation. I have done this for years. The result I am the least judgemental of a person you will meet, I see almost every side of every situation. I am balanced and empathetic and most of all honest with people because I do not fear there response when telling someone I disagree with them. I have been 95% right in my life when knowing what kind of person someone is after meeting them. I am also an intellengent person. This is something adults should do especially if they have a hard time talking with others. Great post or article or whatever this is. Oh yeah I don't however talk out loud its only in my mind and I am 30 years old. This is also a great way of thinking things through. Talk to ya soon- Nichole Hey Tristan,

However, I talk to myself rather than an imaginary friend. Sometimes I do it mentally, while at times I do it verbally (when alone of course!). It might sound like a crazy idea to some people (especially if you do it verbally) but I find it to be pretty effective to sort out my thoughts, reinforce my own beliefs, and boost my self-esteem. Maybe you should try it too. Cheers~ Mark Hi Tristan,

I kid. It is a good idea, especially if everyone around you is a crapper. Methinks you should retitle this post “How To Induce Schizophrenia”.

I would like to see some ways of actually encouraging this in a child. I have a 14 month old son, and anything to make him smarter, better, and faster, I'm interested in. Interesting idea.

I think it may also build your capacity for empathy because of the very close attachment you can create with your imaginary friend. I really like your idea. What a clever idea!
