    Level 1 of inner monologing: being able to hear your own voice read and say anything in your head
    Level 2: Being able to basically deepfake anyone saying anything in your head perfectly after hearing their voice for a short amount of time
    Level 3: Being able to imagine tastes, sounds, textures, feelings tec. as if you were experiencing them in real time (pretty cool that I can do all of them)
    Also I'm pretty sure at least five people in the comment thread have some form of schizophrenia

    I took a class in college that was literally called "dinosaurs". It was like an entry in to paleontology class and it counted as a science credit. On the first day our teacher said that he was sure most of the students were there for the easy science credit, and that on the first day we would talk about something that would never be quizzed over, just a topic that exists along side dinosaurs. The topic was evolution and carbon dating. 4 people got up and left the class...ONE of them actually started an argument with the teacher about how dinosaurs couldn't be real because all of the aquatic ones would have eaten all the whales after Noah's flood. Teacher pointed out that what the average person calls an "aquatic dinosaur" isn't a dinosaur at all and asked why the student even bothered to sign up for the class. Easiest science credit I've ever gotten. Teacher was an 80 some odd year old man who just loved to talk about dinosaurs.

    I have an inner monologue.
    Interesting side fact: there's a book called "The Origin of Consciousness" written in the 70's that (if I remember it correctly) basically says that the reason belief in gods exists is because whenever ancient humans heard an inner voice, they attributed it to a god. He believed that introspection and the ability to hear an inner dialogue is something that culturally evolved in humans, largely because of the influence of language and the written word. According to the book, even the ancient Greeks lacked a developed ability to introspect, hence the "gods" often making decisions for the big heroes in Homer's tales etc.

      I know this has nothing to do with what this Comment thread is about. I just really need to get it off my chest though. I am a Christian and I know for a fact dinosaurs are real, so are Leviathans, and Dragons. Not all mythical creatures but those three type of creatures are, of course there were also animals, and sea animals, and bugs and other creature we have now at the time also. It literally says in the Bible that there were fire breathing Dragons, and that there were Leviathans as big as mountains or a small island in the ocean depths. It's so cool and kinda trippy. Now it doesn't say anything about the Dragon taking flight just that it could breath fire, from what I remember. I believe there were dinosaurs just not exactly how we think they looked like, I could be completely wrong on that though. Always open to learning.😁👍

  • @aniusers

    Today I learned that some people do not have an inner monologue, and some people can't even recreate images in their head..
    It's trippy to know that something so natural does not exist for some people. Reading books were the greatest experience as a child since your mind just automatically assigns voices and recreates the characters and the entire world. Nowadays I chill to some music and imagine a whole Cover AMV out of it. You can also use it to recreate memories or familiar scenarios, although with some missing parts that your mind automatically fills in.
    And when you're grounded to reality, there's this convenient use of voicing out your thoughts inside your head like what I'm having when writing this comment and reading it.

    My inner monologue is unstoppable. Constant, unfiltered ideas and thoughts that are spoken to me, and sometimes, more oftenthan I am comfortable with, screamed at me. It is not a "crazy" sort of experience. It's just constant and occasionally uncomfortable. I only figured out this year that not everyone experiences this. For my entire life I thought that speaking to yourself was as common as breathing. I actually paint entire moving scenes with dialog and everything. Complete with set dressing and all that stuff. It's so weird to think that its not the same for some.

I go into autopilot and loses 90%+ of the time i was working and i just remember the times where i change location, take a break, check in or leave for the day. Thats all i remember from a 8 hours day long work day, and when i get home (the same). For me as i dont stimulate my own brain with growth by talking to myself, time just flies away.

Every boys hated it when he does that, though only a couple of guys can endure talking to him. if we are in america, he'd probably be a subject for bullying but in asian countries you cannot bully someone easily. even if their personality is bully-worthy if he works in a field, meaning rice fields, he is stronger than someone who goes to the gym everyday for 2hrs. I consider him smart academically and let others copy his assignments sometimes. I've met him again after 6years and he hasn't changed but surprisingly he has a wife and a kid now. maybe her wife is like jeannie, but comparing looks because i saw her picture, half of jeannie i guess.

    When it was talking about the range of no internal to full, it was tying in to what we call "tuning out". That's why some people can go deeper into thought than others, and just mull over background noise easily.

    Not only do I have inner monologue , I have inner dialogue. When I’m bored I can even tell myself stories with many different characters with different voices. I can even experience the made up world itself through one of these characters that aren’t me and build the world around me as I travel and meet countless people. Terrible, wonderful, beautiful and heartbreaking events can even take place, and these events can effect my real feelings and state of mind.

    I was once told by a psychiatry student that hearing voices in your head, having a conversation with yourself, is (or can be) an early sign of Multiple Personality Disorder. I have often asked myself questions (What am I doing here/How should I go about this? etc.), but while I've worked my way through a problem, task, whatever, there's no "voice" attached to and I've *never* once received a reply.
    That said, when I read, it plays out like a movie in my mind. I have zero recollection of actually reading the words, just the images in my mind. That's why I love reading, but technical books and manuals just switch my brain off, they take actual effort to read.

    I do think someone should clarify that by "internal monologue" we're not suggesting that your brain thinks your ears are receiving external stimuli when they are not. So it's not so much that you "hear" someone or yourself speaking. Rather, your brain processes your thoughts or the things you read the same way it would process it if you heard someone else and/or yourself saying it aloud. So you can "hear" yourself thinking about stuff, but you are aware that no actual audible sound was received.
    If you DO actually literally hear audible sounds, go see a doctor. That's not an "internal monologue" but probably an actual mental disorder. (Because at that point, it's not "internal" any more.)

    When i was younger i would daydream and i dont mean just doze off or something. During recess i would say to my friends aight im gonna dream abit and i would walk alone usually with a hoodie pulled over my head and staring at the ground, walking in circles over the playground( i stopped it later on because it was getting weird ). I can dream while walking no problem while awake only in full control and be doing something else at the same time. I was a bit of a weirdo but later on in life this helped me hold pictures in my head of complicated problems and simulate different outcomes. Like thinking of the entire diagram of an elictrical circuit and beeing able to visually see what happens when wires are cut or switches are activated. 10/10 would daydream again.

    A couple of tests for the inner monologue: 1) When reading a book, do you mispronounce words? If you have no inner monologue I assume you would just get stuck on any word you couldn't pronounce. With an inner monologue, you would mispronounce it then go "what was that?" and either correct it or look up the word. 2) Do you practice saying things in your head before you say them live? "When I see Henry I'm going to remind him we need to pick up eggs at the store." You might then practice how you will say it--- "Thanks to you eating all the eggs, we need to pick up more" or "Can we pleeeaaaaasssseee pick up some more eggs? We're out of them." You then decide which one you want to go with. Sometimes you would use your inner monologue to figure out which version of a statement will go over better. Very very interesting revelation.

      Yeah I read sometimes books and it suddenly becomes like a movie for me. As a writer it actually helps a ton in making storylines and Character Dialogue. I swear though, sometimes I get random storylines that are just really ridiculous.
      I read Ready Player One once and while reading it I got a random idea for a Yuri plot based on Video Games. I think I'm more mad that I wrote it out and it's good than the fact I sat there and dreamt up an entire Yuri Storyline in 2 hours. Imagining the voices, looks of the characters and their names I still have it and sometimes I contemplate turning it into a full series.

I guess it does make sense and I could do it if i wanted to just like how if I was reading aloud I could change the voices for the characters but I just never have. Also now I think about it when I read I recognize the words but it's not the same as when I'm thinking to myself. I think people that dont have an inner dialog is really interesting, i imagine also that some people have inner dialog that is processed in a way thats not translated to a verbal language

    I've got an inner monologue, honestly it makes books way more interesting as characters can have individual voices. I can also properly recall images, with one exception. I can't remember what people's faces look like. I can remember everything else. The more I focus on it the less detail I can recall. Imagine seeing something out of the corner of your eye but when you look it's not what you thought. It's like that. If I picture seeing something on the side, I get more detail about someone's face than I do when I focus mentally on it.

      For me my memories are stored mostly as images, however I’d say if it was actually photographic memory than it’s a terrible camera that constantly has corrupted save files. I can’t choose which images to remember but those ones I do remember are vivid and stay for quite awhile. If I see a picture from that time I can remember more. I say mostly because I also still remember songs and dialogue from movies. For thinking about images however it’s a whole other ball game, I can see little parts of an image but never the full picture, kinda of like I’m constantly zoomed in on photoshop.

    I absolutely GUARANTEE that most people have an inner monologue, this is the first I hear that it's not simply everybody, LOL! I never knew there were people without inner monologues, :) Austin Powers even had a joke about how the freezing process turned his temporarily off: "How do I tell them that due to the freezing process I have no inner monologue?", something like that. Yes Jeannie, hearing THAT in his head is how it usually goes. Like Henry said, this has OFTEN been portrayed, and not just in anime, where we get to hear a character's inner monologue to know what they're thinking. Anxiety is often portrayed like that, when a person can't stop their inner monologue from obsessing about potential issues and things that can go wrong. Wonder Years and The Goldbergs (and Fresh Off The Boat in the beginning) combine the inner monologue with a look back by an adult version of those characters. I think there's OFTEN been a nervous teen trying/wanting to approach a crush and we hear "OMG, what am I doing? I'm about to talk to _____, I must be insane, AHHHHH!!!!!", stuff like that. This is their inner voice.
    I estimate that 30 to 50% stat is SPECIFICALLY how many people have it FREQUENTLY. It's not how many people have it AT ALL. Now that I found that CBC link you didn't click, that little preview blurb cut out that the scientist says most people have it: "not many people have an inner monologue 100 per cent of the time, but most do sometimes"
    Watch the movie What Women Want with Mel Gibson, the ENTIRE MOVIE, the entire concept, is Mel hearing women's inner monologues. THOSE are inner monologues. It's what those women are hearing in their heads. And the movie doesn't portray ONE. SINGLE. WOMAN. without an inner monologue, :) (That 30-50 link reminded me of that). Another article said "The lack of an inner monologue has been linked to a condition called aphantasia - sometimes called "blindness of the mind's eye.""

I can read a book and have it play like a movie with a narration, or just be words on a page.

    Okay, try this for the whole "internal monologue" thing, Jeannie. Picture an apple on a desk. Now imagine Henry walking over to the desk and placing a second apple on it. That image in your head would be like how internal monologues work. Internal monologues are a form of memory. If you can replay/recall images, videos, and other sensory inputs you've experienced, those memories are tied to the ability to have an internal monologue. Remembering how something LOOKS is no different than remembering how something SOUNDS, and an internal monologue is simply remembering how yourself sounds and using that memory of your own voice to formulate thoughts. A dog barking, a baby crying, your mom calling your name - if you can remember how these things sound and replay them in your mind, that's more or less the same as people replaying their own voice in their head.

    Honestly inner monologue is just the memory of how something sounds. and being able to imagine hearing that sound. like when you are reading to yourself you imagine you are speaking the words. this is a hard concept to explain, but I also have inner monologue and talk to myself, but I can also imagine others talking back to me if I've heard there voice before. I legit can play out potential conversations in my mind. depending on how well I know the people, there is some accuracy to them, but with so many factors its really pointless, but I digress. I think it is a spectrum tho, like asking someone to imagine camping some might think of the word camping or a feeling or picture a campfire or telling story's. I'm sure it depends on the person and how they where raised and best learned and where able to process that learn information. because with deaf people you can ask them what boom is and they might see the word in there mind and know what it means but have no concept of recreating the actual sound.

    It's so freaking weird that Jeannie doesn't have a monologue voice in her head.
    So she is ALWAYS on the maximum meditation level! She's is the new Buddha.

      I think the much more likely scenario is that she's misunderstanding what an inner monologue is. I'm betting that she is thinking that Henry actually hears audio in his ears when he thinks to himself

    This whole inner monolog thing is one of the most interesting things I've ever seen on youtube. I had absolutely no idea some people couldn't recreate sounds, pictures, videos, smells, and tastes in their mind. I wonder if those people sleep easier than the rest of us.

      I test out new recipes sometimes.
      I don't have a working stove/oven, though.
      I just go through flavor profiles in my head. I can also cycle through how different meats smell when cooked.
      They still smell much stronger in real life, but I can smell them in my mind without having food around.

      I mean you still can sleep easier if you recreate lovely things in your head tho, I personally see it as a tremendous ability that I like to practice and have fun with and also think everyone can do it since the weirdest thing is if you focus on a rose you can actually smell it or you can feel the difference between a tennis and golf ball by imagining it lol

    I have the inner monologue. When I read books, I also try and come up with unique voices for characters.
    Whats fun is arguing with myself in several voices and accents. And no, none of my inner monologue voices have tried killing each other. They just have checklists incase that day comes.
