I've always suspected my wife has this, and I just inquired. She said she can't picture faces or things, but can recognize them. Her memories are more like feelings. I asked if she were separated from our daughter in an apocalypse, if she could remember what she looked like. She said, "I have no idea what she looks like right now."
Now she's in kind of a dark place.
This is the level that I am at and it's hard to explain to people that, "no, I don't remember so-and-so's smile on their birthday." Like the feeling of the experiences are there and an analytical capture is, but vision? Gone the second I don't see it anymore
Yeah. I just talk the talk to most people, cause it's easier. I'm lucky, though, that one of the people I'm closest to also has the full works of aphantasia, anauralia, and the other one I can never remember. Also AuDHD.
