I don't know what "intrapersonal communication" is, and after reading this article, I still have no idea of what it is. This article is loaded with incomprehensible and POV statements, and terrible grammar. AdamRetchless 21:14, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Removed section

I removed the following as it didn't seem to give enough information to someone coming to the topic for the first time. I've put it here in case someone wants to re-work it into the article. Jellypuzzle 13:56, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

"(NOTE): Self-communication although intrapersonal extends to reciprocal systems and renewal.

[edit] Thanks for putting it up.

I actually just learned the term today. I am so grateful for it as it is more specific to my interrests. I am so excited by its description. I myself will be doing more learning about this topic, where it is in the scientific realm etc... Either way good job! jVirus Image:Confederate Battle Flag.svg 07:52, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Additions

Hi there, I went over the article today and tried to fix it up a little, including the grammar. I also made an addition regarding lucid dreaming, which hopefully serves to explain the topic a little better and provide a concrete (so to speak) example of what it may mean to communicate with yourself. I think there are some things here that definitely do not belong (i.e., how is reading a map communicating with oneself?) but before I make any removals I want to read up on the idea some more, and will come back to do work when I have time. Thanks. Kieranfox 05:57, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] But, dude, it's VICIOUS

I really appreciate this article. I'm hoping I'm not alone when I say it's rather reassuring to know that you are not, in fact, schizophrenic. And certainly someone with me on that one will have just said to themselves "but what if I am? HUH?". ;)

So . . . where's the part that describes how vicious this feedback loop can be? Lord knows we've all thought shitty thoughts about ourselves. Could this possibly have any relation to Cognitive/Behavioral Therapy, Self-Esteem, etc? Give us a lift?

Or am I actually raving mad? Nitcomb 17:29, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

INTRApersonal communication is valid both in scientific, logical and physiological senses. INTRApersonal communication involves commmunication that takes place insider oneself and involves act-ities that take place at virtually all times a human organism is alive. It is critical to recognize (and quite logically defensible) to conclude that INTRApersonal communication takes place before, during and after INTERpersonal communication. To wit, and individual involved in INTERpersonal communication must decide upon "what" they will say when encoding signals, what a signal "means" when they receive it from others (decoding) and "how" they will respond--encoding at a second level.
