Be it in the library or in shops, I often hear old folks talking to themselves. Is it a habit they've likely always had or is it something to do with aging?

I'm in my 60s. I've only been living alone for about a year and a half, but I do find that talking to myself (or the cat) is preferable to going ages without saying a word. I don't do it when I'm out in public, but I could easily see it becoming a habit after enough years of it.

I'm honestly more concerned about farting loudly becoming a habit, since I don't have to worry about farting quietly 90% of the time.
