As I have done the work of deep introspection in learning and dealing with earlier social trauma I have come to recognize that I probably have hyperphantasia. there are memories where I can recall the sights, smells, textures, emotions, and even tastes (that last makes me a good cook) of memories. This had injured me when I wwould be triggered to inhabit the mind of that young adult. It is like I could be in the scene and inspect its every element. I've been reading about aphantasia and hyperphantasia and I think I have hyperphantasia. Do others here exhibit that? Now, I have been pairing injurious thoughts with memories of joy and perseverence. I think that reflexively generating the strong positive memories is helping me stay on an even keel.
