    Oh, is that all it is? I guess I was reading it to be where I can hear myself talk to myself when reasoning things out or experiencing things.

      I can do exactly what you are describing and do constantly and all day. You don’t debate on goings internally with words? That’s confused my brain. Wonder if it’s an ADHD thing on my end.

        I don’t debate ongoings internally, but I am formally adult ADHD diagnosed. This entire post/thread is fascinating to me.

        Mine do all the time. Thanks to the Internet I now know that this is either uncommon or lots of people are terrified of what people will think about them if they admit it.

      Yep, it’s mostly that. Like a movie/show/anime protagonist narrating their reasonings and thoughts to the watchers, except there are no watchers and you are just talking to your inner self.
