A friend of mine claims it's an actual voice and he has conversations with the voice in his head. He claims it's like having an internal editor. He's also super proficient with writing and speaking.
I struggle with having anything in mine. I don't see pictures or really hear anything at all. I struggle explaining myself to folks, as the verbal/written expression is entirely different then my internal process which is largely around feelings.
- godelski 2y agoI hear my own voice. Even while typing this the words are "auditorily" echoed in my head. This is my voice. But there's also "other" voices. These are all of course also me, but they can have "different personalities." This happens when I'm arguing with myself. Think of like simulating other people or points of view to challenge yourself (self adversarial learning, if you will). > I struggle explaining myself to folks, as the verbal/written expression is entirely different then my internal process which is largely around feelings. I think this is normal. Despite having a strong internal monologue I still often struggle here. I think this is more the aspect that words are a (significant) compression of the ideas you're trying to convey and the people you talk to need to decompress this, but in a global society we can often be primed in very different ways so have grave miscommunications. I like to say verbal communication has 3 parts: what you intend to say, what you say, and what is heard; these don't need to be aligned, and they are never perfectly aligned. It's actually impressive that we communicate as well as we do!
