Wait, everyone doesn't do that?
Very intreasting and insiteful artical thanks for sharing!
Seriously I came here to post that. Mine isn’t characters, but I do visualize things in my head when I listen to music.
I don't, but I have a hard (damn near impossible) time visualizing images that aren't memories
Can y'all stop trying to convince me I'm autistic? Or give me a weighted blanket damn
But the weighted blanket is SOOO COMFY
Embrace the t-ism
Told my teacher I preferred "the movies in my head" and earned myself a EEG to check for epilepsy as a 10 year old. No always explain my vivid imagination.
Wow, people know more (and better) now, but there’s always someone doing it wrong still
That's not normal?
TIL
But of course I'm not exactly neurotypical
As a kid, my method of passing time when I was told to wait a half hour or an hour was to just play back shows, with commercials, in my imagination because I knew they were 30-60 minutes long. Shit worked, too!
I love that😄 How well do you do it now?
30-60 minutes isn't that long to me anymore. I'm usually impatiently waiting months or weeks at a time now. Currently waiting for Shadow of the Erdtree to drop in 8 days. All I can do for these lengths is imagine that WaitMate is real.
Wait. Doesn't everybody do that?
I used to see how many "videos" I could play in my brain simultaneously and still keep track of what was happening in each. Most I was able to be satisfied with was 3.
Hadn't ever really thought about whether other people did that or not..
How many of you have never been introduced to maladaptive daydreaming or non maladaptive cousin recreational immersive daydreaming?
There is a significant overlap with neurodivergence.
always nice seeing Skooks in the wild
