I was watching American Psycho and decided to look up information about inner monologues and discovered a lot of people talking about the subject. It's apparently like how some people wipe themselves sitting down while others do it standing up and both parties are completely oblivious to each other. Inner monologues are the same. Some narrate everything they're doing while others are completely quiet. Both don't know of the others existence. What's your world behind your eyes like?

I refuse to beleive some people go their whole life with nothing going on in their head.

:pepehmm: Title was one thing but the poll another, what goes on in my head most of the time is definitely not a third-person "narration" but me in first person, talking as i would actually, but in my head instead, doesn't mean that i can't/don't act or imagine it myself though :kek: and since it's first person it's not like i "say" stuff about every little thing i do, i don't have to "talk" to pick something up usually unless i'm focused on that specific thing i'm just thinking about something else while doing said thing in the first place, and sometimes it's not even words but just images & "feeling" concepts

As for other voices.. pretty much boils down to mostly just "remembering" something that was said, in their voice (e.g. a classic, "You shall not pass!") .. as for adapting a voice, i.e speaking my own words in another voice.. i suppose does sorta..? sometimes happen but only when focused/into things, can't really force it much else "I" overpower it :huh:

Related topic to the mind, visualization, pretty bad at that, when i try to imagine e.g. a static cube and keep it that way it usually doesn't take very long for it start spinning (/shake/move in general), morphing doesn't happen much but damn does things like to move (staphhhhhh) .. not to mention that things usually aren't exactly very "vivid" :nyoron:

The pole appears to be unclear. I meant you yourself narrating your life.

there may be stuff going on up there, but no schitzo mind narrator ever took up the task of trying to play by play my nonexistent life.

Hmm, I think to myself a lot, think over what I'll do, and sometimes inwardly comment on something good or bad. But, I don't do play by plays, nope.
