Typholitic Visionary

Hi Juliet, I know that my Aphantasia is caused by trauma. I used to have very rich visuals, complete with sound, physical sensation, and scent. Like standing on a movie set. I lost this when I was eleven years old, and in my 5th grade elementary school class. I had a really nasty teacher. He was a bully, and constantly punishing me for random, often made up reasons, like sneezing at the wrong time during class.  I had just gotten done reading a particularly interesting passage in a book during a class free-time period. I was processing the images I had just read, and I can only assume he thought I was just "spacing out" and "day dreaming" and not doing anything with the time. He came up to me, grabbed and shook my desk violently while screaming in my face. I have not been able to see the same while awake since then. I still dream in color, but that's it.
