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 can't render visuals at all. I do see things when I'm dreaming and when I'm drifting off to sleep, but otherwise when I close my eyes it's just black. It's more like my brain stores a bunch of interconnected information about an object - thoughts, feelings and memories associated with it - that could be generated into an image if run through the right interpreter. I still sort of know what an object looks like, though, and I work as a graphic designer for a living.
