neuroatypical friend texts me saying wait do people really have 1. a voice in their head they can't really control 2. it judges them all day, "inner critic" 3. even though they can't control it, they think it's "them" and care about it 4. set their self worth based on it??

Interestingly I'm a 5 there (worked for years to sometimes be able to get to 4), but don't have an inner critic even though I can hear mental sounds very clearly

Learning how other people's minds work can be a mind fuck. I have an extremely vivid visual cortex that is out of control at times and was explaining it to a girl that proceeded to tell me she literally can't visualize things.
