Hmm turns out I have hyperphantasia?

No wonder it feels it's hard to explain things to people a lot of the time...

seems ironic (and not at all trustworthy)! if you're right, you can't actually imagine what being able to do it would be like

  • Are you arguing against the GP having it because you can't imagine what that's like? Is that the irony you're talking about?

  • The people who question this usually turn out to clearly have aphantasia.

    As I've mentioned elsewhere, I have achieved visualisation during meditation, once.

    I also can visualise while dreaming.

    I do not visualise while awake other than that one time.

    The difference is extremely stark and very obvious.
