All kidding aside, yes, it’s true. Not everyone even thinks in words, much less has an inner monologue. There’s so many cool things about how brains are different. They’re sometimes *deeply* unsettling, but still cool. 😎

The "some don't think in words" thing astonished me when I found out. But finding how many of them there were, scared me. It's like, one in three. 😱

Yeah, I don't think in a language. I had a neuropsych as an adult and found out that other people think with actual words in a language. I never have but I understand it because I've seen it on TV as a way to tell a story. But I didn't realize it was real. lol

Some people have a blending of the senses and can see sounds, or taste colors... Synesthesia, it's nifty. And another way we're wired differently neurologically.
