Aka the inability to visualize stuff in ur mind. Please answer these questions about how u imagine things because im curious

Can you imagine stuff with pictures? or are they just shapes, or just concepts or words?

also when you read, does the scene play out like a movie, or do you only imagine some of it? or nothing?

Additionally:
When you think? does your inner monologue have a voice? or is it quiet?

Can you hear music you like play in your head?


i think this sort of picture is often used when talking about it but idk how accurate it is to the actual experience

Today i realized some peoples inner voice actually have a voice, which made me think about aphantasia. Maybe weve already discussed it on here  idk. I think its so interesting. 

Idk exactly where on that picture scale i would place myself, but i don't/can't really vizualise things, maybe a little if i try REALLY hard, and if i do, its more like, idk its somewhere in the back of my head and very abstract.

And with sound i can kind of imagine songs and stuff, but very vaguely, and idk how much audatory aphantasia is a thing? i havent rly looked into it. But it made me wonder if it might be the reason why i struggle  remembering song lyrics n stuff a lot

I have a friend who i asked this, told me she really does see scenes from books like movies in her head when reading, and she asked her boyfriend and he also imagined it , but to a lesser degree, like less clear around the characters or smth. I just kinda read the words it think. its all words in my head.

But i also wonder how much is actual difference how much is just how we percieve the way we think... tho maybe im just saying that because i cant imagine actually being able to see things in ur imagination....

Additionally:
When you think? does your inner monologue have a voice? or is it quiet? why would it be a voice it's just words

Can you hear music you like play in your head? no but lyrics can terrorise me

It's so hard to explain, but I do feel like everything is just very vague when I imagine it. Not clear at all, blows my mind that some people see things clearly as if it's in front of them. So when I read it's not really like a movie, but I can still feel like I'm there in a way. 

And yes I do think I hear my own voice as my inner monologue and I can hear music but still it's not like I HEAR it but I can kind of hear the music even in details.
