Until you realize that an NPC actually has self-autonomy, a playable character is being controlled by someone else.

Nah my whole ass life has now come down to Bella calling me a unicorn-✋🏼😭

I ask myself “What is wrong with me?” Does that count?😭

I tend to avoid asking myself questions because it will all somehow make me overthink and cry

Never let them know your next move- I ask “how” questions

I usually end up having a conversation with myself in my head until I feel like I've gotten to a "solution"

I honestly never ask questions to myself bcs I just KNOW 💀💀💀

saying “no” to the self aware question then passing the self aware test

I do both like "Why am I anxious??" And "WHAT THE FUCK IS GIVING ME ANXIETY"

i ask myself why questions which lead to what questions. i’ve had everyone in my life tell me how self-aware i am and i wish i wasn’t. it makes me subject to constant self-induced scrutiny and it’s like i’m always being watched by someone even if i’m alone.

I never let em know my next move, I ask where and how questions.

I constantly ask the question, "What is wrong with me?"

My mind usually goes along the lines of "Oh what's causing this?" and then I start questioning why. I find the source of the issue first and then start figuring out how to fix it by asking myself why. I find that it makes more sense doing both rather than just one or the other

I ask alooot of questions to myself, alot of them makes me spiral no matter if it's why, how or what

Never let them know your next move *” I ask both “*

POV: you’re a side character

whenever i get into a fight, i tend to ask myself what the other person is thinking

I really had to train myself to think what questions because my anxiety was really bad I still really struggle with it though 😂

I'm so self aware that I ask who, what, why, how, when about EVERYTHING tbf

You mean like... What the fck am I doing watching this? I _need_ to go the fck to bed already! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣♥️♥️

“Will you help me find my cabbages?” Me, an NPC.

I usually just end up questioning the fabric of reality itself

To be fair, I am the only one that 100% exists to my knowledge.

I ask “why”, “how”, “what”, and “am I” questions

Never let them know your next move- I ask “what the fuck” questions

That's super interesting. I certainly don't always get around to the "what" questions, but I do find the "why" questions help me get started at processing my emotions, and then I move into the "what" questions to make actual changes

"Where" questions are sometimes the most valuable.

"Why am I getting angry ? " "What makes me angry ?"

I typically ask myself why and what questions. This self awareness has also lead to me being my own therapist which is a bit odd ngl

It's not just asking those questions. It's seeking the answers and then CHANGING yourself for the better every damn day and being kind to everyone and respectful and mindful

"WHY ARE THERE NO CONTINUES??? WHY ARE THERE NO FUCKING CONTINUES???" *violently screams into pillow*

Not my french ass asking "est-ce que" questions 💀

I think im self aware enough that my old therapist said "well, what do you need me for?" But sometimes I can slip into a spiral and kinda fall into autopilot. I think im probably both but tbh it probably fluctuates? Sometimes im figuring myself out and making direct action to better my life and other times im subconsciously avoiding that due to anxiety or stress.

i usually ask myself “what do i really want” and i can never answer that so i don’t know

“why” is like my least favorite question so i’m chilling

Does 'what the actual fuck am I doing with my life?' count bc that is me 75% of the time 😂 Edit: woah over 700 like thanks ppl 😱😊🥳

Another reason to spend the night awake!

I do mostly "why" questions, but sometimes I do "what" questions

The only questions I ask myself are “What is wrong with me?” “What am I doing with my life?” And “why am I like this?”

I do both I'm basically my own therapist, really, lol I have to solve my problems and it made me a happier person I'm still learning why I randomly shake, etc. But I been happy

Me who asks both to myself 💀

I do say 'WHAT?!' alot...

“What am I doing with my life?” 😂

I ask both. I freak myself out and have a grasp of what I want to do in life

It’s even more confusing thinking you aren’t self aware at all and then finding out you are…

My dumbass legit just said, "What am I?"

I am that one npc you have to do a quest to unlock as a playable character. I think of both

When I'm crying, I kinda "purposely" ask myself why questions to make myself spiral and cry for longer to show how upset I am

I use "how" and "what", but end up overthinking in a "why" way. How and what help me decide what to improve. Always turns into "but why can't I do it? Why am I bad at this? How to improve? What can I do? Why do I suck so badly at this?" So I'm pretty much both.

"What reason do I have 38 counts of vehicular manslaughter?"

“Why isn’t this working” “what the actual f isn’t working”

Never let them know your next move- I don't ask myself questions

I ask things like “Am I stressed out?” And “Am I bored?” So am I like- the final boss?😭

I honestly do both. I question like "Why am I so anxious?" and then I'm like "What should I do to change it? What is triggering this in me?" and so on and so forth

“What is wrong with me” I think I’m self aware

Never let ‘em know your next move, I hate myself too much to wanna get to know me

I don’t ask questions, I just go on with it

I ask "What am I doing?" "Why am I doing this?" So okay. Guess I'm not?

When you order delivery, you are a NPC sending the character on a fetch quest to grind for gold and xp

I have depression and I am highly sensitive, so I ask myself a lot why I am feeling the way I do and analyze my own behavior to find out what is causing my trouble and then sorting out how to fix this. Since I started doing this, I understand myself better and can explain myself better to others, or I recognize my own actions in others and can help them more easily. I don‘t know what this says about me being self-aware or not but I definitely think that this means that I observe and analyze myself, which (to me) is more than just living like an NPC.

Meanwhile: when questions people 🏃🏃💀

My issue is being TOO introspective, and it really makes therapy difficult at times. I end up just talking to myself. Lol

I ask myself "what is wrong with me" "why did i do that"

I broke down why I am the way I am, to my therapist and was told: "there is nothing I can do for you, you keep adding in whatever I would have said, yourself, which makes me redundant". My therapist fired me for being too aware of everything going on inside my head. xD

I'm pretty self aware I'd say. I'd like to think I am anyway lmao

Suddenly i forget every single question i've asked myself

For me it’s usually just “what the fuck is wrong with me?”

You always have the most helpful advice and answers that can change a persons life! I'mma go contemplate on this now

Never let ‘em know you’re next move. Don’t ask questions, have your mind filled with only thoughts of food

And then the third category: no questions!

I don't think I'm self aware, turns out I am.

Me who doesn't ask myself questions and acts purely based on anger, violence, and impulse: *Ehe. I'm in danger!*

Never let them know your next move- I just don't ask questions and go with whatever's the flow

Never let them know your next move: I ask “where” questions.

Another thing is if you have anxiety (im just talking about myself) you are probably very selfaware of the smallest details like eye color, but it is proven that people who dont have anxiety are most likely to not be selfaware

I ask myself 'how' questions. HOW TF AM I STILL ALIVE?!

Are you self aware? Well I thought I was actually spiderman when I was 7 but apparently I'm not. So I'm probably not self aware

I don't ask questions. I let intrusive thoughts win

"What makes do self aware? And why am i watching this video?" The 2 questions i asked myself😭😭😭

I’m a little too self-aware sometimes, and other times I zone out so far my soul leaves my body

Is it possible to be both? When I’m upset, I go in the shower and let myself feel whatever it is I’m feeling, usually asking WHY questions. When I get out, I calm myself down and try to figure out what got me so upset and how I can fix it next time by asking WHAT questions. The shower helps stop me from spiraling and pitying myself for hours upon hours, and stops me from bottling everything up

I ask both why and what questions 😅

I’m a weird half-playable character because I ask myself both lmao

So am I a poopicorn? Because I’m both 😂😊😅

I talk to myself a lot, like a big sister would to their little sister. So I would ask myself “why do I feel so unhappy in this relationship”, and then the big sister self would ask “what exactly are you unhappy about? Is it how you feel? Is if how he makes you feel? Is it the relationship or Is it within yourself and it affects your relationship?” And the conversation continues.

Never let them know ur next move, I ask HOW questions 🗿

Im that side character that is playable when the main character is down

“What’s for dinner?”

I ask both why and what questions so am I self aware or not?🤔

i always ask myself why am i a certain way, what caused it and what can i do to either prevent, fix or accept the situation. it helps me understand my triggers and allows me to try and do better next time. 😊

Oh come on, i knew i am a secondary character

I ask myself both of those questions, mostly when I'm going to bed at night as I cry. Every. Single. Night.

Very true❤😊

the question is: do playable characters or npcs have more thought? npcs act on their own while playable characters are being controlled. I guess it just depends on the universe?

I’m self aware enough to know that life is simply easier as an npc.

Omg, before I started working through my ptsd I only ever asked "why" questions, now all I can think is "what" and "how"

"am i even real"...ok i need help

its a mix of both as well as how. mainly it's "literally, WHY"

I thought I was about to be dunked on but i'm safe

Why questions don’t necessarily have to cause a spiral. I usually like to ask myself “why?” so I can identify the reasons behind a question. After I identify the “why” I ask myself “what can I do to improve?”. In conclusion, just ask yourself both.
