Internal Monologue, Or Abstract Thought?

I do both. Talk to myself out loud and also full sentences in my head. Lol

Most of the time though, the internal dialogue ends up being what other people have said to me just running through my mind over and over again. 

internal monologue here mostly,  but there are some exceptions.

During lovemaking there is minimal internal dialogue for me at least and likewise when in serious pain or very depressed. I suppose when caught up in an emotionally strong reality, the moments becomes far less defined by an internal dialogue. 

During my morning routine if you can call it that, I often start  humming some tune such as the brady bunch theme song but it might have different timings depending on my emotional state and then as I wake up, usually in the shower stream of consciousness and often nonsense lyrics creep in although sometimes the lyrics are themed.   I'm not sure how to describe it, same tune, two different days, different random lyrics, often rhyming with varying timing depending on the day.  The weirdest part is for as long as I can remember, cheese and Cabbage are two words which crop up in there. Now I eat cheese semi regularly but can't remember the last time I had cabbage cooked in the home and both of those words are not food items I consciously think about during my fully wake state except right now of course. 

There's also another exception I think and it's when relaxing with the guitar but not really consciously thinking about it. Music(well that's what I call it) comes out but it's not tunes i'd been thinking about, it's a feeling thing, more abstract and more absent minded. 

I definitely have an internal monologue as I'm reading or typing, like my brain is either speaking as the other person, or is speaking through my fingertips as I type.

Other than that, I just suppose it depends. Sometimes it's not a narration of sorts, sometimes it's an image of sorts, and while I don't "see" them I could probably tell you what it looks like pretty accurately.

Internal narration from me sometimes does get spoken out loud as I think, so occasionally it becomes external. Stuff like, "I'd better hurry up" or "Am I doing this right?".

I've shared a lot of my..."thoughts" on here, and as you guys might probably be able to tell, my inner narrator isn't always kind to me.

Definitely Internal Monologue for me too then. If I'm not spaced out on something then I'm pretty focused, thinking about my next step.
