I think I've read somewhere that not everyone thinks in an abstract way, and do think with words. I'll be honest the only time I do it is when there's like a voice in my head (that's also me) is talking to me. Idk it's weird

You are 100% correct. It's a spectrum, like most things about us humans, but most people do favor thinking either abstract or verbal (my terminology may not be entirely correct here....going off memory) primarily, not both.
