re: Apparently some people do not have an inner monologue

The only voices I hear in my head is the voice of Vin Scully announcing Dodgers games. Some of the games I hear go way back to his time in Brooklyn.

People who experience aphantasia don't experience visualizations in their mind; they can't mentally picture their bedroom or their mother's face.

These people are obviously serial killers.

I read in Pete Maravich's bio that his dad Press dreamed in Serbian

I wouldn’t know what to do with myself if I didn’t have to hear, “kill, kill, kill!” all. day. long.

Mine is about from 1998, it’s an inner Kylie monologue.

Inner Kylie back then was recommended, not so much nowadays.

Magisterial

I have an inner committee of competing interests and points of view. Some members of the committee are of questionable character.

Sometimes, more often than I like, I create situations in my mind that aren't happening and I start to get upset or pissed off. Like I see a police car, then I see I'm going a couple miles over the speed limit, then my mind takes off on some story about the cop pulling me over for speeding and me getting upset that it was only a couple miles over the speed limit, and I think about asking for the cop's badge number and I tell him "I will see you in court." Then I snap out of it and realize I'm getting upset over something that isn't real.
