Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.
RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Between a 4 and a 5. I also have no inner monologue, just thoughts in the form of impulses and instincts
Maybe you mean anendophasia? Aphantasia is someone who either can't or find it hard to imagine. I have anendophasia and have little or no inner monologue. Unlike those with inner monologues, I tend to imagine what I will do instead of speaking in my mind what I will do.
Ooh yea I think I have both Aphantasia and Anendophasia (I also find it hard to imagine all distinctive visual characteristics of an object at a time)
Do you find yourself talking out loud yourself more because of that?
Nope
