Not even close to original, so lazy of a post, they've made movies about this exact thing.

Not quite correct. You stand near a tank or big gun firing, you suddenly become aware of all your gibbly bits shimmying around.

To be fair I had no idea everyone wasn't like this until partway through secondary school.
Was learning another language and some of the class had spent a good amount of time overseas immersed in that language and came back saying their thoughts sometimes switched between languages.
To my confusion I asked how their thoughts had a voice which confused everyone else who didn't understand how thoughts couldn't have a voice

I can see why that would lead people to think you were a bit slow or simple as you put it. That's got to be hard to explain to your average adult as an adult, let alone with the vocabulary a normal child.

There's always thought, but for me it's more like abstract data than an internal monologue.
For me personally I don't think I'm completely on that side of the spectrum but I did find it frustrating that I found it hard to engage in live conversation as it took me a while to convert thoughts to language.
This did lead to many people thinking me simple in my younger years.
I eventually compensated by memorising tons of scripts that I could use to engage in conversation which I use in day-to-day conversation and use it to buy time while I work out how to convert unscripted thoughts into language

Since life began on earth there has not been one single time that all of it was wiped out entirely.
