10 years ago, I’d have put my ability to visualise at 0 out of 10. Practice and occasional halucinogen use has got me to 2 out of 10. It causes no end of problems in day to day life, so I’m interested to hear if anyone has tips or just experiences to share so it doesn’t feel such a lonely frustrating issue.

edit informative comment from @Gwaer@lemm.ee about image streaming, I did a bit of digging on the broken links, the Dr isn’t giving the info away for free anymore without buying their (expensive) book, but I found some further info on additional techniques here, pages 2/3: https://nlpcourses.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Image-Streaming-Mode-of-Thinking.pdf

    I haven’t, because it’s not really a problem unless I’m laying down. I don’t struggle with fatigue or wanting to sleep or the like. It’s just that when I lay down, I fall asleep, even if I am trying to watch a movie or talk to my partner or read…

    I’ve tried stimulants over the years for my ADHD, and they all stop that problem. When they’re still active in my system, I don’t drop off simply by laying down. But I avoid taking them late in the afternoon
