Wait. Here? Or on Reddit? Either way…ugh.

I have total aphantasia and am exactly the same.

I found it very interesting to learn that they believe aphantasics can form the mental image, they just can’t access it. Minds are amazing!

She’ll get through it. I had a similar experience, but it passed. I can’t picture my daughter in my mind, but I can describe her and recognize her and, as it happens, she has aphantasia, too. Indeed, I only realized I did because of her. She said that, because she is autistic and has always known how different she is, she knew it wasn’t just metaphorical when people spoke of “mind’s eye” and “picturing” things. Remind her of how much aphantasia frees her from. I wouldn’t trade.

Ha! I posed this query to my daughter just the other day. We are both aphantastic and have no chess abilities at all.

Same. I had JUST said to someone last night that I’d never been banned or even warned, though I’d said plenty stuff on the violently anti fascist end of things. A few hours later, I get a warning, though they didn’t say for which comment. Thankfully, someone told me about her!

You’re a wee babby. After the next few blinks, you’ll be 62 like me. Make the years count and don’t work for some corporate overlord anymore t than you have to.

Seems too easy on him. I like the hanging. Or the drugs that work so badly.
