    Still not specific enough. I may sometimes “think loud inside” i.e. think in sentence form / “I should definitely do this” - and I definitely “speak silently” in my brain when I am typing out a sentence like this one right here - but I think that is VERY much the norm if not impossible not to do - because writing down language requires the language center / processing skills of the brain.

    Beyond that, however, I wouldn’t normally comment on what I see / do - because that’s… kinda redundant?

    Does it mean there are people who really comment everything in their brains? Like “Mhh… this wall is yellow. There’s a doorframe to my right - the door is made of wood.” etc?

      As far as I can tell there are people who have an inner dialogue going all the time but I doubt it’s always so mundane. But I don’t know. I’m more like you ( I think) where I thought these words out as I typed them but will probably go back to more abstract thought with music afterward.

        yeah, that describes my thought process well - I am thinking in words while typing (or while reading, speaking, listening, obviously), but in abstract concepts when not interacting with language, but with objects around me.
