I’m not even here but in like, a different plane solving the issue in my head space.
Exactly, I can be so completely gone, I don’t sense anything around me.
Comment on Why do we have an internal monologue?
SendMePhotos@lemmy.world 8 months agoWow I’m like the complete opposite of you. Inner monolog is default and if I’m trying to figure something out it’s like pictures or a 3d model in my brain or, if in deeper thought, I’m not even here but in like, a different plane solving the issue in my head space.

Hm, interesting.
I can also have images when trying to figure certain things. For example, if I’m moving then I will have images of where to place boxes and furniture in the truck or in the apartment, but these images are typically combined with words like “if I put this here, then…” Or if I’m trying to remember where I put something then it’s memory combined with “after I got home I…”
In fact, the easier a problem is, the fewer words I use. But when something is really stumping me, the words are more prevalent. And angrier. More like “This doesn’t make sense! If the positive and negative are both connected then power should flow through. Maybe this f*cking thing is broken”

Same. It’s like a different part of my brain works for spatial reasoning, which I guess is true? Lol but yeah when truly focused you leave your plane to view something else. It isn’t only visual though it’s almost all encompassing in some ways. And generally is the “flow” state for me.
