    It was only a year or two ago that I learned that "internal monologue" is a literal, non-metaphorical description of what most people have in their heads. NGL, seems a little corny.

      On the other side it took me a while to learn that "picturing" something is an actual thing people can do.

        woah you have aphantasia? May I ask if you've ever taken psychedelic drugs like lsd or psilocybin?

          I haven't, but I have been interested in psilocybin (for depression mainly, but aphantasia too). But from what I've read it seems like I shouldn't do it alone or in a bad state of mind, so I don't have many opportunities.

            for your first time it's probably best to have a sitter. I think it's okay to trip while depressed, but I'd reschedule if I woke up feeling super unstable or angry

              Yeah that's the problem, I don't really have anyone I'd be comfortable enough with to have them be my sitter.
