Wondering about the relationship between #aphantasia and grief.

If I can’t make pictures in my head, I can’t hold the images of anyone I love and am griefing in my head (it’s true). (I have aphantasia and I have no images in my head at all)

I always thought that movie or TV depictions of grief of people popping up in people’s lives was like, TV depiction of ghosts, not grief.

I can’t picture anyone, not even my own face, not my wife’s, not my late dog (who I love and grief, but not in a visual way).
