Do you always have a monologe going on? Say you now put down your phone or close your laptop and just stare out of your head and look at what's in front of you.

Do you always have a monologe going on? Say you now put down your phone or close your laptop and just stare out of your head and look at what's in front of you.
Will you have linguistically formulated sentences "coming to you" without pause?
- loves_mangoes 6y agoNot while sober, no, I can pause. At least for a few minutes, until my impatience takes over and I go do something else. I can think without formulating sentences in my head, but that's atypical for me. I'll even 'argue' in my head to help me make decisions! I've never been in a situation where I couldn't use my inner voice, thought.
- Talanes 6y agoI pretty much do. It's not entirely without pause, any sort of flow state will completely usurp it, and I can definitely zone out, but both of those situations are noticeably outside the norm. Notably, when I'm my loosest and "most authentic" socially, it just feels like the inner voice is speaking directly out, whereas most times it's more like the inner voice is giving instructions to a much less verbose underling.
