10 years ago, I’d have put my ability to visualise at 0 out of 10. Practice and occasional halucinogen use has got me to 2 out of 10. It causes no end of problems in day to day life, so I’m interested to hear if anyone has tips or just experiences to share so it doesn’t feel such a lonely frustrating issue.

edit informative comment from @Gwaer@lemm.ee about image streaming, I did a bit of digging on the broken links, the Dr isn’t giving the info away for free anymore without buying their (expensive) book, but I found some further info on additional techniques here, pages 2/3: https://nlpcourses.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Image-Streaming-Mode-of-Thinking.pdf

    Interior decoration. My place is pretty bare still, because I cannot imagine what furniture, artwork, colors, and the like would look good in it. AR apps help, but they aren’t that good yet.

      Same, any sort of planning like this is just straight up a process of trial and error with some educated guesses thrown in, which is why i have never felt a draw to visual art of any kind other than like, spirographs, and whenever i try (especially using computers) i just end up trying to draw mathematically pleasing patterns lmao

      Huh I didn’t realize that’s why I have troubles with this but it totally tracks. Do y’all sort of “forget” the state of your house and whatnot, ever? Like sometimes I just straight up don’t realize it’s as messy as it is until someone comments.
