Thu, 06 Jan 2011 02:16:05 +0000 http://blog.audiogettingrichscience.com/help-i-cant-visualize/#comment-1064 Ben, I'm with you completely. I had absolutely no idea that people could "see things" in their heads until I went to college! Both my mother and father could not. They were both brilliant, but could not picture a tree! In college I roomed with a person who could "picture" an entire page of text in her head and reread it! We took a modern art class together, and our differences were palpable. I had the better understanding of what made "good art" and appreciation, but she could look at the picture in her head any time she wanted to! Yikes. Luckily for me our teacher tested only on images that were right in front of us. It is hard for an imager to understand us, just as it is hard to imagine being blind from birth. By the way, I don't see much in dreams, either, mostly feel and hear. Ben, I’m with you completely. I had absolutely no idea that people could “see things” in their heads until I went to college!

I hope you realize your reasoning is flawed. I I found your post rather obnoxious in the way you were talking. Like your smileys acting like you caused us to have an epiphany. What I think happened is that YOU considered yourself someone who is unable to visualize, only to discover either 1) you can visualize or 2) you changed your definition of what itmeans to visualize.

How is imagining the same as visualizing?? What I have never been able to do is picture something in my head. Just because I k ow how a lemon tastes or I get worried about someone, that doesn't mean I can see them in my head. And after doing a little research, it appears as though about 1-10% of people are unable to visualize. Not that they didn't realize they could. However, there isn't too much info on this What are you talking about?? How is imagining the same as visualizing?? What I have never been able to do is picture something in my head.

The crap above is not visualizing since there was never a mental picture formed. It could be some sort of imagination but definitely not visualization.

I am among the 10% or so people who, no matter how hard we try, cannot "see anything in our minds eye. I have not been able to my whole life. I dream fine (all senses working), just not visualising consciously. I believe it is possible for us minority to achieve this, but I have not found it yet. I'm trying some experiments at home with circumcerabral stimulation (using whole brain activation) to try to achieve this. If I don't succeed, I'll keep trying. But PLEASE don't assume everyone can visualise. Every person's brain is unique (we are not carbon copies of each other).

This arrogant "everyone is just like me, and if their not, they just need to learn!" is so patronizing I could spit! Now thats out of the way, let me argue the semantics of "conceptualize" vs "visualize". I can conceptualize your lemon, I can feel it, sense it. I just can't "see it". I have no minds eye, and you know what? I don't care. Seriously, is this what you say to people born blind? "the truth is, everyone can visualize." No, not everyone can "picture things in their head". Your post makes me angry. This arrogant “everyone is just like me, and if their not, they just need to learn!” is so patronizing I could spit!

I've never been able to visualize images in my mind, and some people can not stop to the point it is a disability. Some people can visualize numbers as shapes, allowing them to "see" mathematics in their mind. To assume everyone is wired the same way seems presumptuous.

However I do occasionally see a picture in my mind, but I can neither create or control it and in fact, as soon as I try to focus on it, the image disappears. When I try to visualize on demand, I see nothing. I agree with many of the posts, feeling and imagining is not the same as visualizing. I can not visualize on demand.
