People dismiss it often, but I do think all of us are born predisposed to view the world a certain way and how we respond. As I said to another person, I have anendophasia, which means I have little to no internal monologue. I don’t really get stressed out because I don’t really get intrusive thoughts. I could sleep fairly easily. With any criticisms I get, I just forget and it doesn’t linger in my mind, or I just learn and move on.
The downside of having anendophasia, though, is that I have been insensitive before, because I wrongly assumed that people don’t have constant intrusive thoughts. It was irrational for me as to why have these thoughts without bearing in reality. Only recently I realise many, if not most, people have constant internal monologue that is pain in the butt. Nothing for me to do but understand. It’s the state of mind all along.
I also experience little to no internal dialog, and have no issues sleeping. But I’m still stressed. Usually I’m unaware, but its more of a feeling than a thought.

Only about 20% of people have constant internal monologue. It’s more likely to have zero internal monologue than an uncontrollable one.
This indicates to me that the internal monologuers are potentially describing uncontrolled anxiety.
