People with aphantasia may not realize that most people can “see” images they generate in their minds. Some with aphantasia say they thought using the word “see” in that context was a metaphor.

What killed me is when people say like "picture yourself on a beach" and people are actually just doing that. My whole life it was a metaphor

I think I've slightly frustrated people when they asked me something like "how do you think this chair will look in the corner of the living room?" and all I really could say was "yeah it's a nice chair, has about the same colour as the sofa"
