SDAM taking over narrative?
I’m sorry I’m going to raise a thing that might seem confrontional but..
I’m tired of feeling like people with SDAM (Severely Deficient Autobiographical Memory) taking over the narrative, trying to make it so that aphantasia and SDAM is one and same thing. Blurring and mixing traits between those two distinctly different cognition types.
So I feel like I don’t belong when I got something that could be described as the opposite of SDAM (or in middle of that and normal) but still being a total (visual) aphant.
So I really wish we could keep those things apart.
It is as if I’m claiming autism and aphantasia is same thing as I got both of them. It is false correlation. So I feel same about this.
What do you think?
Also. My mind isn’t quiet either. It is constantly racing.
So I got annoyed when I read the latest newsletter from aphantasia.com mentioning things about quiet mind (no the opposite) and remembering memories as facts instead for experience (i don’t recognize this) and writing as some mutual recognition.
So I feel..
Sigh
