There was a Facebook post a few years back by a Silicon Valley software engineer who described aphantasia and how it blew him away to discover it. My wife actually sent that post to me with the line "Read that .. I think that is you. " ... my mind was blown. All of a sudden my life started making sense. Why i was useless when my wife sent me to the store to get paint in the color of our living room. Why i can watch horror movies all day long and not get nightmares. Why i settled on an entirely black wardrobe years ago. Why i was never able to create cool looking slide decks at work. Why, even though I'm an absolute cinephile, i found it impossible to imagine a movie of my own. It was a revelation.
