What words or phrases do you repeat repeatedly?
Varies, day by day. A word will attach itself to me for a day or a week. Usually words that follow an internal rhythm. The last one was “Bellingcat”
I repeat a word and a phrase, but without oralizing them. I think them to myself repeatedly, especially in the mornings, when I get up, when I go to breakfast, and when I am nervous.
Would that be echolalia too?
I similarly have a collection of numbers and phrases that I will repeat, generally in moments of stress or to ward off intrusive thoughts. I can perform these inwardly as well, though I prefer to oralize if the situation allows.
I think palilalia may fit better.
Wait, should you always have echolalia or can it just start and stop randomly? I currently don’t remember any words, but they are usually words from random songs, that sound weird.
Really, you can have it whenever. It doesn’t matter for this post. What I’m asking for are words or phrases that you repeat often.
