I'm nearly completely aphantasic. I can get very brief flashes of images but can't make them happen nor hold them in my mind.

I almost never dream. When I do dream it's fairly lifelike.

I can't visualize anything arousing. When I first learned (at 26!) that my friends can visualize any fantasy at will I was floored. I have zero internal imagery for anything sexual. Have no fantasies.

I can't picture anyone's face. Bodies are only experienced in person. If I can't see it with my eyes, it doesn't exist.
