The Longest you've Gone without Speaking

[repsol rave 2,963]

i lasted about 3 days once. i lost my voice so i just couldn't talk, even if i wanted to

it sucked pretty bad. i had to write everything i wanted to say down otherwise i just couldn't communicate with people.

Uh... probably no more than a few hours. I live with a LOT of people, so it kind of makes talking impossible. Even if most of the time when I'm without Klopp, I only utter one-sentence phrases every now and then. (I don't like talking to my family much.) So that would count as such.

 

Basically though, I don't speak much when by myself or in the vicinity of strangers. Probably speak even less at my job than I do at home with my boyfriend. I utter a few stock phrases every now and then there, which also prevents me from being quiet as I'm basically a cashier who has to deal with customers. (Occasionally. It's all night time, so they are rare.) At school? I don't speak at all, really.

[Seaweed-Headed Dragon 356]

Urm.... Maybe 1 day. Or so. I can't stop talking

[Sweet Dreams 1,893]

Probably one or two days, when I got a really bad sore throat. Other than that, maybe a few hours.

[SwigglySwiggly 358]

I don't speak unless spoken to, I don't need direct conversation to stay sane though, as long as I know that there are other humans around me then I'm fine.

1 or 2 days, no one could care less about what I say. 

I don't talk too much... no one to talk to ya kno?

[Country Gal Forever 17]

3days and 5 hours and not a chatter box like CrayZ said

[Gone Airbourne 21,969]

A couple hours I am sure of it. 

 

I have always wondered to have a whole day without speaking to a single person. But to do something like that you'd have to be sick or hide for a day.

[DerpyWithFlowers 24]

The longest 9 hours, because I was sleeping

 

A whole week or around their, but just because I "lost my voice" and even if I wanted to speak, I was unable to.

Well considering I live at home still and me and my brother always strike a conversation... Not long. If I lived on my own, I probably could go a long time. unless this discourse chatting with Internet friends... D: I couldn't do it. I may be introverted but I do get lonely

[Leavinh 313]

Probably a couple of days. I'm a very shy, quiet person so people often don't notice me or get very surprised when I actually speak.

[The Leafeon Pinkeh 3,602]

I dunno but probably like.. 10 hours ish at most sincr i talk to myself, to everyone, in my sleep, and stuff.

but i dont talk too much cause like I dont know what tonsay alot so I just say "hi" xD

[Mand'alor Dash 2,224]

Does crying count? When I was really young, I went through this phase where I refused to ever say a word, and tried to communicate using nothing but hand gestures and crying.

 

It lasted about two years, then I decided I'd had my lulz and just told people what I wanted.

 

:comeatus:

 

Okay, seriously, not very long at all. Ironically, despite my natural introversion, I'm immersed almost 24/7 in conversation of some sort. Mostly over a chat program.

 

Though, if I had to, I imagine I could last about a week.

[SanityNotIncluded 335]

Sadly, it depends on whether or not you count self-talking.

[XRainbowDash 17]

Longest is like 14 hours

[DubWolf 16,621]

It would be pretty awkward not talking to my family at home for even a day. I always at least say hi to friends when I see them, so I probably could only not speak for as long as I'm not around anypony. Also, I do talk to myself sometimes, so that would shorten any possibility of not talking for a while. I do resist not speaking right now as I am alone on the computer .

[lomk 20,663]

I have to speak from time to time to break the silence. Even if I'm talking to myself thinking out loud 

[ChoroChii 284]

Somewhere over 20 hours or so. 

[Guest]

Two minutes.. max. I never stay silent for very long.

[Skylar 1,641]

probably like an hour, I talk to myself sometimes if I get bored xD Not in a weird way though  

[Rayalicious 435]

16 hours, on a very long flight, everyone was sleeping, no one to talk to, my family was busy with their gadgets or sleeping. I took out my laptop and started playing MineSweeper xD

[Commander Tangent 861]

I've gone 3 days without any verbal speech whatsoever. It was a challenge within my group of friends to see who could go longest without speaking. I won, but it was hard xD.

[Damonater 70]

I went 48 hours with out saying anything.....

[Serbon div 386]

The longest I've gone without speaking would be about 4 days so it's 96 hours, or 68 without counting sleep.

 

 

I would very much consider doing that.

I think that an average person would last 4 months max, before going crazy. Could you imagine every second of every hour of every day of every month being the same except when you eat and shit?

[Wayzer 1,418]

around 35 hours I guess. One day I woke up and my parent's where gone with my sis the whole day. I was asleep again before they came home. I hadn't said anything for the whole night day after that and night after that
