Spiderman is notorious for this. In most comic and cartoon adaptations, even the first round of movies, he is always talking to himself. Obviously not as a condition like you describe, but it sometimes gets him in trouble when Peter Parker says something he thinks is stupid or inappropriate. It is part of his charm.
Something the writers did in Homecoming to help implement this more seemlessly: they gave his suit an AI akin to Iron Man's Jarvis. So, rather than talk aloud to himself with no audience, he could bounce his rants off of his AI.
So, your character could have some companion that he is always talking aloud to. A close friend. A Tyler Durgen-type alternate personality. The AI living in his augmented reality brain-chip, etc.
Hope this helps.
