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.

I think there is more variance than most people think. I’ve realized in learning about this that I think in very low resolution images unless I really have to focus on something. And when I do, it’s sort of like zoning out: I don’t see with my eyes at the moment, only my mind.
