Never thought about it, but indeed, I do not say the word in my mind. It somehow clicks into a meaning.

On those Facebook groups, people kept having these little aha moments where they could explain some of their behaviors with this newly acquired knowledge. I left those groups when I noticed it became almost like an obsession for people.

I'm happy I found out about it, but don't like too much the idea of labeling people, so I barely think about it anymore. We're all quite different in many ways. To steal a word from the autism world, all of our behaviors are on a spectrum, doesn't mean one is weird or abnormal.

Haha, as a side note, I was just thinking what I could do an AMA about. Couldn't think of much people would be interested in. Not sure many people would have much to ask about being a physicist. Maybe I could to a tag-team AMA with other aphantasic people :)
