Visual Silence: Exploring Aphantasia. Comment: it took decades post TBI for me to understand the loss! You are operating in the “now” but you cannot imagine or visualise as you once did. The change becomes the issuse and it is mingled in with deafness in one ear, olfactory sense of smell gone, brocas you can understand the situation but you can’t find the words to express … etc. You realise the 1990’s consultant neurologists knew so very little. There was one neuropsychologist and she assessed losses but again it is decades of change, with real change happening now.
