I think either most people are exaggerating about their ability to visualize or I have this impediment to a degree. My mental &quot;images&quot; are extremely faint, distant, wavering, ghost-like. Any parts I&#x27;m not focused on immediately poof away. Definitely can&#x27;t conjure up a whole scene and explore it. But at least it&#x27;s something.<p>The reason I think people may be exaggerating is because there are very few people with the artistic or mechanical aptitude that I would have if I could produce stable and detailed mental images at will. Also, police sketches.
