If asked to picture an apple...

If you were asked to picture an apple in your head, would you be able to see it? Because I've never been able to, and wondered if there were other people on PC who simply just cannot picture images of things in their mind.
 
I've heard about this! I forget the name of the condition at the top of my head rn but it apparently affects more people than I initially thought.
EDIT: Aphantasia? Is that what it is?

I gotta ask, how does it affect your life? Assuming it does at all.
 
I'm autistic, so I'm actually able to see pictures easier. Look up Temple Grandin if y'all are interested in this! Anyway, I always have hard time visioning videos in my mind. If I pictured an apple being thrown or falling off the tree... than that's where it gets really challenging for me. :(

It doesn't really affect my life, if I'm being honest? Until yesterday, it wasn't something I thought about too deeply...

That's cool then. More power.

Gotta ask though, is it just pictures that you can't seem to visualize in your mind? Can you imagine a voice talking or music?

Yeah, I can imagine music in my head sometimes, mostly anime songs w/lyrics. It's just pictures I can't see.
