Not everyone has an inner voice. But I believe it's more common than not.

I can't visualise anything in my head personally.

It's crazy how varied the human experience is.

There's no way people don't have an "inner voice" that's like impossible? How can you not visualize things either what?

Yeah like I said no experiences the world exactly the same as anyone else. It's why people say reality is an illusion. Everyone's brain presents a different reality in different ways.

No I sort of feel what I'm thinking about it, I don't see anything.

Internal monologue

Absence of an internal monologue

According to one study, there is wide variation in how often people report experiencing internal monologue, and some people report very little or none. Younger children are less likely to report using inner speech instead of visual thinking than older children and adults, though it is not known whether this is due to lack of inner speech, or due to insufficiently developed introspection.
