INTRAPERSONAL COMMUNICATION
That’s the missing phrase! Since April 2013 – 9 years.
All the synonyms I was using like self-talk and ‘in my head’ and ‘thinking’ but without the main word used to describe it, it was out of reach. All those wikipedia searches, missed that one.

I don’t show that word even ONCE in my saved documents. Not once. This is the only time I mentioned it in a post.
