Hope you’re reading this, I'm trying to find someone to talk about our aphantasia. For me it’s hard to explain, I mean I am able to imagine things like counting sheep and other things, BUT those are not real visual images… I tried to describe it to my girlfriend a few minutes ago, and failed miserably, it feels like I am turning thoughts into a pseudo image - but it’s not like really seeing stuff - there are really detailed scenes, objects or people but they are not truly visual. It might be hard to understand, I am able to enter those scenes, "look" around and explore those details, but it's not like a real visual picture… Are you able to relate to this or am I experiencing another subtype of aphantasia?
