Wait am I confused on what an inner monologue is? Is it different from a train of thought? Do I just think I have one? Do people have a non metaphorical inner monologue where they physically hear thoughts? What percent are they in control of the thoughts?
If your mind wanders, isn’t that the inner monologue?
The inner monologue is thinking by ‘hearing’ your own voice ‘speaking’ in your mind.
It’s the mental equivalent of literally talking to yourself.
Do people have a non metaphorical inner monologue where they physically hear thoughts?
Yes, in the sense that they hear themselves ‘voicing’ out their own thoughts. If you have the ability to form images in your mind, it’s like that, but with sound.
