  • Inner speech is considered universal and ubiquitous, but its perception varies from person to person.
  • 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.

Yeah there are good days where i can give the static something (like an old actors name or sports stat) to chew on but other days im trying to think while 'national anthem' by Radiohead is banging around up there

I do my best thinking when a song is playing in my head. Might be an ADHD thing. Need to occupy some mental processes so I don't get distracted.

Do you hear Thom's voice in your head?

Haha i hope it's obvious that i love radiohead. Its just I was listening to it on one of my "bad brain" days and i thought to myself "this song is somehow expressing just what it feels like inside my stormy brain"

All too relatable.
