It was recently brought to my attention that most people don’t. I find that…literally impossible to believe.
So, do you have an inner monologue? Do you talk to yourself? Do you get lost for hours in your imagination? Just spend time thinking? When you read, is there a voice that reads the things or do you just…see the words or something.
I have periodic dissociative states that will happen maybe once a year for 5-10 minutes and during that period I can't visualize objects with proper proportions, like if I imagine a person their hands or legs will be comically oversized. It's apparently a known phenomenon that a teacher brought up once but it's happened to me since I was small.
I've had one of those! I'd see my partner as if they were really far away, then blink and feel like they were right at my face, plus other crazy stuff - time was choppy, couldn't get oriented spacially, etc . Felt like I was stuck in a shitty short film from a kid that didn't know how to edit, light or operate the camera. It lasted a whole morning
