I'm OCD but I definitely don't internal monologue. I do get stuck in what I call a "simulation loop" as I play out possible scenarios in my head and I can totally talk in those, but I have to intentionally "pretend to talk to myself" to talk to myself. In general the only time I hear "a voice in my head" is when I imagine/simulate saying something to somebody else.
