Thought

 When I have interactions with other humans or when I’m scripting possible future interactions, when I think ,I use words. I will hear the words in my mind as if I’m speaking them.

When thinking of things in the natural world that don’t include other humans all my thoughts are images.

I’ve read this is a typical way of thinking for autistic people. 

I much prefer the images. This quiets everything for me inside my head. Alternatives or possibilities are much easier and faster to work through without being hindered by language .

Here’s the thing with that though. I may understand a thing in detail but not be able to share it with others because of my inability to translate my thoughts to language with accuracy.
