I find it impossible to visualise things and often feel like I am totally lacking imagination, although I'm quite artistic, weirdly - I used to paint and I am still very interested in photography. But visualising things just doesn't work, particularly the appearance of characters and places in books, directions, words (when trying to spell them out loud to people) and numbers. I used to study physics and found that I was a natural mathematician when it came to the degree-level stuff, but I can't do mental arithmatic because I can't hang on to the image of the numbers I'm supposed to be using. It's infuriating sometimes. I score very highly on the AQ test though, somewhere between 30-40 depending on my mood and stress levels - but then I also get perfect scores on the Eye Test which people with ASCs are supposed to be unable to do. I guess I'm just neurologically weird. Well, I knew that already.Katiehttp://giantfossilizedarmadillo.comnoreply@blogger.com
