    The idea of not having a internal monologue is kinda strange to me. I have a constant internal monologue. Like there doesn’t go a moment by without me talking to myself in my head.

    I had it a couple of times that my internal monologue was off, usually due to medications or after intense experiences where I just need some space to process. It’s the most strange feeling.

      You should try taking Finnegans Wake, especially before going to bed, and see what happens. It rewires your internal monologue syntax in some really strange way that is not far from the experience of sleep.
