An internal monologue is like talking to yourself in your own head. When you think about something or try to figure out a problem, you might imagine having a conversation with yourself to sort things out. It's like there's a little voice inside your head that only you can hear. That voice can be helpful to organize your thoughts and figure out what you want to do next. It's kind of like a "thinking buddy" that helps you process information better. Just like when you talk to a friend, talking to yourself can make you feel better and less alone. But remember, it's okay to keep some thoughts private and only in your head!
