Okay, so about my earlier Post with regards to the Aphantasia.
Let me explain it like this.
On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you describe yourself visualizing, say an apple or a place even. Would you say you can do it flawlessly? Then you're around 8 to 10.
Only barely able to see it in your mind, not as detailed but still able to clearly call it what it is? 4 to 7.
Barely like a doodle image, say 1 to 3.
Then there are those who can't at all. 0. That is basically where I sit. I can't visualize it at all. I know what it should be, but its like staring at nothing but darkness, a blank page. I can describe how I'd like it to look, but wont be able to see it. Thus I use visually descriptive words to bring the image together and build it in segments.
Appearantly this is nit the norm as most people can conjure the image generally and should be able to do so without having to build it slowly.
This makes it interesting to me, because that means I should struggle to recall stuff on command which is the case but I always thought of it as a bad memory of sorts. But for instance, if I were to physically describe the thing, I would be able to build the picture. This means that if I can by chance recall the way of doing something previously, I can recreate the object I desire.
I know there might be people out there who, they themselves don't know they have Aphantasia, who might feel like I did, so yeah. Don't think you're alone. It's not a bad memory you got. Its just simply put, that the display in your head is off, so you gotta sketch it out manually to have the picture.
