Is that how you write songs - by hearing then in your head first? I've wondered how musicians, artists, etc. produce art. I've started asking people if they have voice or images and most have the same reaction of shock that other people do or don't.

I can think words or practice a speech in my head, but i don't see or hear anything. Like how when you're counting things, you don't see or hear numbers in your head, you just count. I don't know. I just learned in the last few weeks that some people do see and hear stuff.

I don't know. The thought is just there. Like if you think about world war 2, you don't see it or hear it...you just ponder the causes, casualties, etc.

Oh, with a song. I dunno, i just think of the words and try to get the verses right and feel like i want to sing it. What's it like when you get a song stuck?

I can't see things in my head, but i love Tetris and I'm excellent at fitting a lot of suitcases in the trunk of a car.

Opposite for me - I don't understand how people have sounds and pictures inside their heads.

I lost my mom recently and it makes me sad that i can't see her in my head. I 'meet' the same people repeatedly. I'm worried that i won't recognize my family one day.

I don't know. I just think about the idea of it i guess? If i want to build a flower bed and I need to know the area, I just measure and multiply.

Reorder them?

It's pretty wild how we never think about other people having different methods of thought. When i learned that some people can hear in their heads i googled a bit and found some interesting articles about thinking in words, pictures, and patterns. There's a Temple Grandin book about it - haven't read it yet.

You really hear a voice? Like it's someone with you? I cannot get my brain around the idea of having a voice inside my head and i just think of old cartoons where there was an angel and a devil on someone's shoulders. It would be crazy to have Morgan Freeman narrating my life - like that funny penguin movie he did. I do frequently get songs stuck in my head that keep me awake. I don't hear them, i just can't stop trying to get all the words in the right order.

I don't understand what it is. I read a blurb about it, but i don't really get it. I can remember what my house, car, dog, etc. generally look like, but i can't think of a time i tried to imagine a picture or visualize an item. I'm terrible with faces and intruduce myself to the same people repeatedly. Off topic, i just learned that some people hear a voice in their head when they're thinking or reading.

Dammit, now the lips and words on Netflix don't match.

Florida has those. Worked on one in college.

I don't think they're more weird; just different weird. Every gen has different shit they deal with and react to.

I think most people don't know what the jay walking laws are.

We used to do that - try to decide who had the best tortilla soup, tiramisu, burger, tacos, ... Very fun!

I accidentally hit my kid in the head with a yo-yo. He would say it could be a deadly weapon. Still gives me shit for it.

I get so stuck on how miles per gallon compares to gas use per time. I've decided that driving faster is better because my car is running for less time.

How long have you had the issue? Sometimes people have symptoms but the cause is more than just that area and can be impingement higher up from poor posture, or from repetitive stress, etc. With my insurance it would be cheaper to see my primary, get a referral for PT, and try that for a few weeks before going to an Ortho. Also, remember that surgeons do surgery - it's how they pay their mortgage.
