The voice in my head isn’t an actual voice but the ~concept~ of a voice

idk i just read it😭 like i look at the words & ik what they mean so the idea/concept gets formed in my head as im reading. also since i dont have a voice in my head, kinda whispering along as i read helps me to understand what im reading faster ive noticed

i mean my head is silence in the sense that i dont hear my own voice no, i can hear songs if i conjure them & like replay them in my head. i also have thoughts ofc they just arent auditory. theyre pictures or concepts/ideas bouncing around😭 if i have to memorize smth i just practice saying it out loud or whispering it to myself over & over again until it sticks. my brain can also pretty easily bring up a picture of the thing i memorized like if its on a paper i can see the paper in my head

i still have thoughts😭 just not auditory ones. okay maybe this is a better way of explaining. its kinda like when i get on a train of thought rather than it being auditory w me talk to myself, its more like watching a movie in my head so much so that i get lost in it sometimes & forget im in public like i get so immersed in my inner world

Like a silent movie?

Anonymous replying to -> #3 3w

im not sure tbh. its hard to describe bc its not like im aware that theres a lack of sound but im not aware that there is sound either. its just a movie of my stream of consciousness or thoughts that im moving through like im just experiencing it all. & its not like im sitting back & watching it go by like a typical movie, im actively engaged in it & experiencing it in real time. maybe u could describe it as a movie made up of my thoughts in the form of concepts, rather than images or sounds

IM SORRY😭 i really wish i could describe it better for u. if it makes u feel any better i also freaked out when i first found out abt ppl hearing their voice in their head (i thought it was just smth they did in movies/tv shows to let us know what the characters were thinking😔)

Honestly this is rlly interesting to me bc it reminds me of people with DID but u are aware of who u are unlike them. I wonder r the people the same age as u the same gender have diferent hobbies? Can u ask them how they look or what lives they live?

I don’t think it’s ur description I just think it’s rlly hard to comprehend something you’ve never remotely experienced before😭 I’ve always just been so curious after I found out some people don’t have an internal monologue bc for me th voice in my head never shuts up

also im absolutely HORRENDOUS at getting the words from my head to my mouth & out & having them convey what i want them to/what i mean/what i was thinking like im soooo much worse than the average person like its smth i actively struggle w

Like I would think it’s the opposite bc since u think in concepts u would be able to manipulate numbers better and I would be better at the languages since I have it constantly speaking

SEE i was thinking it might have to do w the fact that my thoughts r like not even in word form in my head like theyre just ideas & concepts & pictures up there & i have to actively convert them into words AS im talking so that might have to do w why its such a struggle but u even struggle w it so now IDK WHY

Maybe it’s similar bc my head voice shuts off when I speak so I’m unable to describe what I’m thinking. It feels like I keep saying yk this yk that and I’m trying to describe an image
