    An inner voice. My wife and son both talk about options and choices like they’ve discussed things with another person.

    I have to go with plan A. There is no second thought.

      Total aphantasia? Same here, but:

      No intrusive thoughts, ever.

      No visions of, or reliving, trauma.

      No sad-memory sounds or tastes.

      No facades, so no energy wasted.

      And if you got the SDAM bonus, you can re-discover all your favorite books and movies like you never read or watched them before!

        As someone with diagnosed anexity. Constant repetive intrusive thoughts and obsessive reliving of past trauma, I can’t help but be a little jealous.

        Apologies. I’m sure you have your own complementary problems to over come. I just can’t help and admire the how green your grass looks

          My husband is like you, and also wishes for the absolute silence of my mind. But you’re right about green grass - I wish I could visualize happy memories or even picture the people I love.

          Buckle up. You’ll discover we have some great advantages, but you may feel cheated out of some abilities, too. You can DM me if you have questions.
