I saw a video describing the term, and it all clicked. Before that I described it as my thoughts being only 'conceptual'. I always struggled with therapy cause I couldn't translate my thoughts into words. Haven't gone since I discovered the term, but since then I've gotten a lot better at articulating my thoughts. Much moreso in text than verbally, though.
