    My experience is the same as yours. I have an inner monologue, but it is not constant. My thoughts do not always come in the form of words.

    In fact, I would say that wordless thoughts are my default and the IM comes when I am trying to figure something out.

      Wow I’m like the complete opposite of you. Inner monolog is default and if I’m trying to figure something out it’s like pictures or a 3d model in my brain or, if in deeper thought, I’m not even here but in like, a different plane solving the issue in my head space.

        Same. It’s like a different part of my brain works for spatial reasoning, which I guess is true? Lol but yeah when truly focused you leave your plane to view something else. It isn’t only visual though it’s almost all encompassing in some ways. And generally is the “flow” state for me.

        Exactly, I can be so completely gone, I don’t sense anything around me.
