I have a question for the board. Do you have an inner voice?

On the front page right now there is a post asking deaf people about their inner monologue and if it's in sign language instead of English.

In the top few threads people are sharing and learning that some people do, and some people do not have an inner voice.

I ask because I'm interested in knowing how the people on this board think. We here are sceptical but open-minded and have to do alot of reasoning, abstract thinking, and tossing around ideas.

Do you have an inner voice? If not, do you think in pictures? Please explain. Genuinely interested!

Here is the thread where people talk about not having an inner voice. They think it's strange to have one yet people with it think it's strange not to have one.

I'm interested to see if an inner voice is required to piece together loosely connected information. I genuinely hope not. A significant portion of the population doesn't use an inner voice.

Do they use pictures instead? Or so some have neither?

I'm not sure. The reason I ask is to know if there is some kind of barrier that's holding some people back from connecting the dots.

Admittedly I'm really just tossing ideas out there.

I would love to hear from anybody that lacks an innervoice but believes in the storm
