My internal monologue has always been constant so I guess I'm just used to it at this point. 🤔

@thepeculiarpanda Do you have it with a voice?
thepeculiarpanda · 36-40, M
@CrazyMusicLover I'd say so, yes. Just a constant mumbling somewhere in my skull.

@thepeculiarpanda Is it your voice or someone you know? Do you recognize a pitch etc.? Is it like recalling someone speaking?

I have internal monologue or imaginary dialogues quite often but I struggle recalling and imagining voices. It's just thoughts for me.

@CrazyMusicLover I feel like it's my voice, near as I can tell anyway. 🤔 And it's not like recalling a conversation, it's more like listening to an echo or something.

@thepeculiarpanda Very interesting.
Like your voice you hear when you talk or like a recording of you talking? Because there's a big difference between those two, at least for me. 😅

I once or twice heard a voice in my head when I was falling asleep and it was a very unpleasant experience. Like some stray electric impulse somewhere and it "sounded" a bit like those ghost effects in movies. Or when someone actually talks to oneself in their head in a movie, so they put different sound effect to it. A bit hissy. I can't imagine having this "normally" and feel sorry for people who randomly experience that.
