Sex & Shenanigans

Just over a year ago, I read something that totally blew my mind: apparently less than half of people have an inner monologue?! I do and I always assumed everyone else did too. Apparently some people have only visual thoughts, and/or process information like a computer that directly outputs them. I have both an inner monologue and visual thoughts, but my computer brain has my inner monologue preview its findings before printing, so to speak. I tend to overthink evvvvverything.

I can’t imagine how peaceful it must be to not hear that inner critic all the time, or not get anxiety-brain while trying to sleep, or not have their brains constantly self-correcting every word they’re about to say or write. 🤯

Yes, and I replay conversations over and over in my head and think shit... did I really just say that?

I don’t think the two are mutually exclusive. I don’t really have an inner monologue with voices or discussions or narration. But I certainly have a lot of twisted stuff up there. Lots of anxiety and rumination. Just, not as an inner monologue exactly

I have both the inner monolog and visual thoughts (and incredibly visual dreams) as well.

Not only do I have an internal monologue, it tends to also narrate like a noir movie as well...

All the time “did I say that” or “why did you say that versus this? Should I have even brought that up…”
Yeah this. Sometimes you are justified though.
Sometimes, but more often than not I’m killing myself about how I worded something and the other person didn’t even notice

I talk to myself a lot. Some times if I'm trying to decide something, the pro side gets a voice and the con side gets voice and I go over everything.
 
I mean he's clearly seen using force-jumps, jedi mind tricks, and other force-related skills during the film! It's undeniable. DarthDarth was the plan, with 120% certainty. Nay. 130%.


There are dozens of us! DOZENS!
Love a good Arrested Development reference 💗

I too can post receipts, the below is an example of a nice (to others) but not kind (to one) post.
Awww, you really thought you did something there, huh big guy? *Pats on head*

my inner monologue is constant. :rolleyes:
Saaame

I’m the same way I can’t comprehend the idea that someone can exist without thoughts bombarding their every moment
Right?!

The new meds I'm on have actually quieted my inner monologue a good bit and it's so fucking peaceful some times. I can't believe some people get to go through life without 1000000 worries, invasive thoughts, or other nonsense constantly pressing for your attention.

I however don't have a minds eye and struggle to visualize anything with my eyes closed. I mostly just see black and if I try REALLY hard I can sort of see a shape. I whish I could see images like some other people can.
Interesting! Is it easier for you to sleep now?

This. My inner thoughts are quite chaotic troublesome. Never been without them.
Same here. So many thoughts racing through my head at ALL times. I very often go to open cupboards or the refrigerator and by the time I get there, so many separate trains of thought have passed through my head that I forget what I opened them for. I frequently open the “what are you thinking?” thread with the intention of posting something specific and by the time I reply to the posts of others, my thoughts have fled. I sometimes wonder if, from the outside, it may look like I don’t have an original thought in my head, but the truth is that there are TOO FUCKING MANY! 😅

This, OMG, I feel this so much!

I absolutely refuse to believe this. The majority of the population don’t have to put up with this shit?

Actually, on second thoughts, that totally explains Brexit.

I can do both, and control both. You’re telling me there’s people that don’t have “inner monologues” and/or can’t control what their brain says at any given moment?

I'm not sure what would be worse, not having an inner dialogue or not having the ability to picture anything in your mind.. Aphantasia, they lack a mind's eye. I know of at least one author in the authors hangout who suffers from both, which is why she uses overly descriptive language in her stories, and completely skips any stories that don't detail absolutely everything about the characters looks. Super interesting, but also super depressing to me.

😫 I really like Kristen Stewart, she's been doing some fantastic indie films after her whole sprakly vampire phase. Also her rolling stone cover was just gorgeous; not often you see a butch dyke posing in a mainstream mag like that! :love:

So I tried finding some pictures to disprove the above meme. And I failed horribly. She's great on film but she only really has one photo-face 😶‍🌫️

Oooooooooowould we say Kristen Stewart is a butch dyke?

It was a promo for her Love Lies Bleeding movie where she plays a butch dyke, and she wanted the shoot to be, quote, "the gayest fucking thing anyone's ever seen". She's also said that if she could grow a little mustache and a happy trail, she would :love:

So, in her private life? No idea. We only see her public persona. But on this shoot? She definitely and most certainly is. :love:
