I have aphantasia, a mental disorder where I lack all internal visualization. I cannot “picture” things in my mind, I think in words and numbers and such. With this, I am very curious how the mental imagery works for the rest of you. Do you see it separate from your main vision? Does it get interposed? Is it like picture in picture? I’m baffled!
TIA.

It’s sort of like simultaneously above my field of vision directionally, superimposed onto it, and a third element where it’s clearly not real but I’m still experiencing it.
But I can’t look up at it, nor can I mistake it for real sensory input.
Hope this helps.
