My wife has multiple sclerosis. Aphantasia is one of the complications she's experiencing. Without being able to visualize she's had to resort to using a notepad and paper to write everything down. She's always been creative and it's been very hard on her to come down with this.
- kaoD 11y agoI'm sorry to hear that. My SO has MS too and we've never though how it could affect her imagination.
- aab0 11y agoIs it aphantasia or is it the general severe cognitive changes across many domains that usually accompanies MS?
- snarfy 11y agoWe aren't sure. It took a long time before we associated a term to her issues. The tl;dr is she says she lost the picture in her mind. She cannot visualize anymore, which sounds like aphantasia.
