From the moment I can remember I feel like I have always had a quiet mind. I don’t have constant active thoughts in my head. For example, if I was driving down a street and need to turn left, I just do it. I never voice in my head “Oh, time to turn on blinker.” “Now I need to turn.” Or whenever I’m working on a task and need to stop to work on another one, I just transition. Whenever I see someone walking their dog and the dog is super cute there isn’t a voice saying that. There isn’t anything annotating my actions or things thats I’m visualizing. Whenever I realize that my mind IS quiet, that is when I start saying something in my mind. But not consistently. It’s interesting because I do struggle with anxiety sometimes so it can be confusing to process some things about myself.
One thing I noticed that may have a similarities to a quiet mind is auditory processing disorder. With every song I have listened to, I almost always have trouble understanding some words in the lyrics and get it mixed up for another—Unless the song has lyrics that are really clear to understand. If I really want to learn how to sing along to a song that I enjoy, most times I have to re-listen by playing back over and over or simply searching up the lyrics.
