EMDR and Aphantasia. I Don't see things but I can describe them, I guess??
I saw another post and it clicked with me. So like when creating a safe space or container, I didn't actually "see it" in my mind. Like a beach, the sand, water, palm trees, wind etc, but I am able to describe it. Same with container.
During EMDR, I don't know how to describe what happened, because I didn't "see it" but it's what was like I was experiencing.
It was first person, I could "see" (memory) my parents in the front seat from the back seat, then it switched to third person where I "saw" my younger self looking at a wall like watching projector of my perspective in the back seat. It's weird, it's like I can describe it, but I didn't actually visualize it, I guess it's emotional??
I didn't really know what Aphantasia is, I just figured it was the same for everyone.
Hopefully this make sense. Thank you for any responses or those that comfortable sharing their stories.
