I have a condition which might be described as a "blind mind's eye". I don't see internal visuals, nor do I have audio recall. Either modes do not function voluntarally, nor involuntarily.
After discovering other people saw things in mind, and heard things in mind, I found it hard to believe the stories people told me, because I didn't understand how that could be possible. Over time, I grew to understand that none of us see or hear reality in exactly the same way and I accept (as a truth) that others see things in mind, or see reality slight differently than others.
Many probably experience a similar reality, but at the end of the day each of us must trust others through the language and stories they tell.

Wiki on it of anyone is curious: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphantasia?wprov=sfla1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphantasia?wprov=sfla1
