Art by me, sHyena

I've been making art for 24 years, and just today learned I have Aphantasia, or the inability to visually imagine things. I can conceptualize, but not visualize.

I've spent 24 years beating myself up for struggles that all make sense now. I wish I had known. I would have been nicer to myself and learned to work with it rather than against it.

Rather than lament about time I'll never get back, what can I do moving forward to live with this? To become a better and happier artist? Are there certain things I can do to use this to my advantage? Thanks in advance.
