I tend to talk to myself when I daydream. The problem is, I live in a dorm. I am pretty sure my roommate heard me and thinks I'm crazy! PLEASE HELP

Depends on how well you get along with your roomie, but my advice is honesty - tell them what's really going on with you.  If  you don't fell comfortable with that, then tell them it's part of the process of your creative juices flowing for creative writing to see if a conversation actually works for a story your writing or an acting exercise?

I do the same thing. I also tend to not even know when I'm doing it. I become that disassociated during my DD.

When I figure something out, I'll let you know ;) My vote is to don't tell him about MD. Avoid certain habits that you know you tend to start talking to yourself in. Mirrors really bring out my daydreams to the verbal level so I don't look into mirrors.

I had the same problem back when I used to live in the dorms and I got made fun of. I had a reputation of being weird. Now I live in a house so I can talk to myself all I want. If you feel the urge to talk to yourself, try getting out of the dorm and do it somewhere else. The dorm walls are very thin; next door neighbors can hear when I was talking to myself.

Another option someone else suggested to me, as lately I've started talking out loud a little, is if in public, take your phone out, (put it on silent?) and talk into that. So if you're neighbours can hear you and they ask about it, you could say you were on the phone?

But apparently verbalizing things helps, it can get your thoughts together, and apparently writers and things talk out loud, so maybe make them aware of that?

Or just say screw what they think and keep doing what you're doing. Hakuna matata! =p

Talking to yourself seems to be common with dders.  Sometimes it can be embarrasing too!  I have learned to curb a lot of it lately.
