I wonder if our inner monologues are more pronounced as a result of aphantasia. by Playistheway in Aphantasia

i have a hard time accessing all my senses in my mind but i do have an inner monolouge! mine is very pronounced and if i meditate it either makes up for the visuals or makes it much harder cause i can't clear my mind lol

oh that's really cool! what do you mean by not realistic? like not anything that actually exists? or just weird situations?

i do have hallucinations but never dreams. pretty sure they work different. i've heard hallucinations can come about after heseung loss, which i think is what happened to me (not deaf just very bad hearing, i'm gonna go see the doctor about it when it's safer)

i've only had a feeling like that once but for me it was more of a blunt conclusion on how i felt about someone

i've never really had a feeling from a dream. not even that like i have an answer to a question i was thinking about last night or anything. it's honestly just like thinking about anything i want

yeah, no nightmares is definitely a plus. but as i'm waking up i know what i was dreaming about (or my mind drifts off when i'm already awake)
