The apple-less should not be shamed, but pitied. For they are unable to keep doctors away from their doorstep

[–] Llewellyn@lemm.ee 5 points 8 months ago

Of their mind

[–] Bizarroland@kbin.social 28 points 9 months ago (3 children)

Okay, yeah, but can you turn off the music in your head?

[–] dabaldeagul@feddit.nl 16 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Hell nah and I couldn't survive without it

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago

I can't image life without it and it makes me sad there are those who can't experience it.

[–] Sir_Fridge@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Yeah, learn how to play an instrument. Rapidly play multiple songs after each other. For a little while it'll be quiet. I usually end up having one of the songs I played in my head after a bit though. But it'll get rid of really annoying songs.

[–] Landsharkgun@midwest.social 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Hey Don't write yourself off yet

[–] Bizarroland@kbin.social 1 points 8 months ago

It just takes some time

[–] H4mi@lemm.ee 26 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I’m apple-less. But I can’t picture you shaming me.

[–] Ziglin@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Ooh that one's good!

[–] ComradeR@lemmy.ml 19 points 9 months ago (3 children)

Does anyone else have a visual memory that doesn't work consistently?

There are days that I can "see" a picture crystal clear high definition in my mind. And there's other days that I "see" everything blurred, or under a fog, or hidden in something like TV static/noise.

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 10 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Nope, pretty consistent for me. Does you sleep quality or hydration affect it?

[–] ComradeR@lemmy.ml 2 points 9 months ago

I really don't know. I will pay attention on it from now on...

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Kind of? But it's less specific days and more certain things.

Like apples are simple so I can see them easily, but if it's something I'm not use to it's kind hard to put into focus or the shape shiftd or something.

[–] Ziglin@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

I sometimes get blurry flashes of memories that I can use to know what it looked like but I don't actually see it (just the blurry part)

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 18 points 9 months ago (2 children)

We bullying those with aphantasia now?

[–] Patches@sh.itjust.works 8 points 8 months ago

Always have been 🗣️🔫

[–] Zoomboingding@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

Are we taking shitposts seriously now?

[–] KingofHearts615@lemmy.world 15 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Damn I've read about aphantasia before but never seen it depicted in a graph with levels... turns out I'm around a 4.. thats weird.

[–] Octopus1348@lemy.lol 15 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Here is a slightly different (but better resolution) image:

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

That's pretty interesting. I never gave it much thought, but apparently I'm between a 2 & 3 at the moment

[–] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 8 months ago (2 children)

I'm solidly a 1 and I can't fathom anything else. I'd love to read studies about this.

[–] Jarix@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Ide love to see what you can see when you read or listen to a book. It would take so much less energy to read as much as i do. It must be like watching a movie playout inside your head with the best narrator i could imagine

[–] Schmoo@slrpnk.net 6 points 8 months ago (2 children)

I'm a 1 on that chart and I struggle to understand how you can even follow what's happening in a book without being able to imagine it.

I mean, you have to be able to fill in the gaps don't you? Books can't describe every detail.

[–] GoodEye8@lemm.ee 4 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Short answer is, you can't. That's why I don't read books.

Longer answer is that even if you read a book you can still understand what of happening in the book, you simply won't get a visual image of what you read. Makes books pretty boring to read IMO.

[–] Jarix@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Linked concepts and context.

[–] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 8 months ago

You're spot on. I genuinely tend to forget if I've read a book or watched a movie/series if it's been a few years.

[–] WereCat@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

I feel like I'm between 4 and 5 if I try to imagine something on purpose but if I'm reading a book or someone is describing something to me I'm a solid 1 as I can vividly see what it's being described.

[–] CluckN@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago

0 I can create apples with a mere thought.

[–] Bombyk0l@sh.itjust.works 8 points 8 months ago (1 children)

What if the apple is green because I only eat Granny Smiths?

[–] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 10 points 8 months ago

then you're a fucking lunatic

[–] Ziglin@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Waaahhh... Not like I wanted an apple in the first place.

Btw I feel like this is good place to promote !aphantasia@lemmy.world Not very active but maybe others could help change that.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

not very active

Maybe potential users simply can't see themselves interacting there.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

That's peak bliss right there

[–] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 2 points 8 months ago

I don't give two fucks, but I am telling you right now. That motherfucker back there's mental apple.. is not real!

[–] LesDeuxBonsYeux@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 months ago

Today I learned that I had aphantasia lvl 4+
