Title. I mean some days I feel like a void. I can go about 3 hours.

poll is misleading, i can probably go multiple yrs without talking to anyone in public if i didn't have to, but without saying one word to myself i could probably go a few days
 
The most I've ever gone is 17 days without talking to anyone but myself and I felt fine and happy.
Then my family returned so I was forced to speak to them.
I could go a year tbh just talking to myself.
 
I don't ever feel the need to talk, I am autistic enough to live a rich internal life
 
Title. I mean I feel more inept and some days feels like a void. I can go about 3 hours.

For about 12 years I only talked like once a month when my mom was calling. So your question seems pretty ridiculous to me tbh.
 
When I was a NEET living alone I'd go several days without speaking. It made it weird when having to greet cashiers at stores or something because I wasn't used to using my voice and it'd come out at a weird pitch.
 
One day at most without talking even to my parents. But that's quite rare. Usually, it can go up to seven hours without speaking.
 
I've talked out loud to myself since preschool
 
probably only a few hours as I have to talk with people at work / school
 
Days. Probably could do it years but I have to interact with my family.
 
I rarely speak to other people, when I don't have to greet customers I'm silent for more than an hour at times.
 
I have to issues with talking to people but I struggle to find people to have a meaningful conversation with
 
isolation is actually fun until you're forced to interact with people. 20's i was neet and the best times of my life. The problem is you come off as retarded when you're integrated back into society. I had to work with retarded people for 5 years getting back into the workforce.

If i had a way to just have a small room to play video games or watch tv without getting disturbed by others, be provided food ,and.not have to work, i'd considered myself set for life.
 
How the f would I know? ._.
Maybe 20 h or so when my parents come home
 
Multiple days but at that point, it'd just be awkward.
