When people talk of an inner monologue, do people mean a literal dialogue with yourself back and forth? Or more thinking/overthinking to yourself, which may come in the form of a dialogue, or visualisation of events, thinking "that's fucking bullshit, I'd kill those tossers" when they read about Muslim gangs etc? I get the latter, but not so much the former.
The idea of people having nothing is actually rather disturbing to me.
Inner monologue is speaking to yourself about things that happen to you. They are verbal reactions that take place in your mind. They can also include planning of the future (e.g. reviewing in your mind the things you have to do over the course of the day).
Full-blown dialogues are just a form of the monologue that I would guess is more of an "overactive" inner monologue. I usually have dialogues to process complex events and ideas that later make their way into my writings. I could probably be called a "crazy" person because of how intense my inner monologue is, to the point that it is obtrusive to my sleep.
