your inner monologue (self-talk) is what you say to yourself. its pretty much your thoughs all the time, so yes u do have one, everyone does. say you like messed up on a test and thought to urself "zurphy u are an idiot" thats inner monologue. "zurphy, u should go approach that chick" inner monologue.

a good 90% of people have negative inner monologue and all they say to themselves is negative, so what u should do is start saying positive things to yourself and over time, if u have negative self-talk, it will become positive. its a huge confidence booster. so start doing that

99.9% of people have an inner monologue but it is are not good for you.
The human enters the world without language. Because language is so very useful to human progress, a central objective of education is to develop language usage; but the process goes too far. Language is near universally taught in such a manner that it ceases to be merely a tool for communication, but become a straight-jacket upon the thinking progress. This extends until most humans cannot think outside ‘the’ mass of words circulating in their consciousness that becomes a substitute for independent, reality-based analysis. That is, humans become addicted to language, they become the servants of local language structures instead of the masters of language.
True thinking is silent
Words going around and ‘around in the head’ are destructive of sanity. If this happens to you, you need to learn to refuse words every time they enter your head/‘thinking’. To achieve this, it is an assist to concentrate on looking at and feeling some real-world object of your choice, such as a stone or your favourite teddy bear.
Words are for communicating; they will be there when you need them.
