nope, there are actually people who don’t have an inner monologue. they think with pictures, associations, and feelings but cannot hear themselves in their head.

    It's possible to transition. I used to have a constant voice in my head, it's no longer constant but I can think that way if I want to.

    Meditation does "help", though I don't think it's necessarily a goal to eliminate that voice. But as you let your mind settle and open your awareness to your whole body while avoiding judgement, the voice gets quieter and calmer.
