Lack of inner speech experience is called anendophasia.
Individuals with low levels of internal speech perform worse with verbal working memory and image-based rhyming judgments.
Differences in internal speech do not affect the efficiency of task switching.
Research on anendophasia adds to the diversity of phenomenal human experience.

Fascinating stuff. I love that we're learning more about the variations in how we experience thoughts and the world itself.

Have you tried just "playing" music in your head instead? Most of the time, I'm just thinking instrumental music.
