How does this play for you ? I identify as spectrum, what used to be Asperger’s, and have to work really hard to get to visual phantasia, but I can. Also worked hard to remove aural phantasia? via meditation because of negative self talk. Do you see ‘aphant’ as a useful designation? Thoughts, Ideas?
I don’t need the voice. When I think of things, I see the thing and text spelling out the word of the thing in my mind. My internal landscape is pretty much like looking at a page in the encyclopedia. Aphantasia sounds so weird. Not seeing or hearing things in your mind, but you still have thoughts and can recognize things like any other person who visualizes in their head.
