Aphantasia Experiments

Hi everyone, I'm Robin.

Author: Robin Caitlin

Hi everyone, I'm Robin! I'm a creative professional with a unique challenge: I'm trying to cure my own Aphantasia. I was self-diagnosed with aphantasia at the age of 38. It was a really mind-blowing experience for me. I never realized that I was missing something that other people had. To help me in my journey, I'm conducting various experiments and meditations on myself. Follow along as I hopefully make exciting new discoveries on aphantasia, and see how it might open up new possibilities in our understanding of the human mind.

Wednesday, 4 December, 2024

In this episode, I dive into the unique combination of living with ADHD and aphantasia—and how these two neurodivergent traits shape my creativity, challenges, and daily life. Inspired by Trevor Noah’s recent reflections on ADHD and depression, I explore how these struggles resonate deeply, especially when working memory fails and the overwhelm sets in.I also share personal stories about prayer, meditation, and reconnecting with the universe—why asking and listening are both essential for clarity and balance. Whether it’s manifesting a new path forward, finding answers in unexpected places, or dealing with the cycles of stress and burnout, this episode is about learning to zoom out and see the big picture.Plus, a heartfelt shout-out to all the listeners who’ve reached out to say they missed the podcast.
