I’ve been hearing/reading about people who don’t have an inner monologue. Their experience of cognition is not verbally-based.

As one of those people most of the time (communicating with other people is the main exception), I still find it astounding that it's hard for some people to understand.

Take riding a bike: I presume even people with an overactive inner monologue aren't constantly planning their actions (brakes, steering, turns) in words. Then just extend that out to most other stuff.

What about when reading and writing? My inner monologue internally voices the words as I’m reading and writing. Do you not do that?
