Aphantasic 

Noun;//
Used to describe someone with Aphantasia.
A mental sympton described by Francis Galton, a British pioneer in intelligence eugenics in the year 1880. And this research hasn't come to light up and till the year 2005, 14 years as of now.

The symptom is psychological, and people who are Aphantasic struggle with being able to visualize or picture anything in their head. Imagining objects or colour etc. would be impossible if them.

Their are cures to this symptom. There are many articles and videos that can help you begin to visualize a lot better.

As an aphantasic, I've found a way to visualize objects in my head thanks to numerous articles I read. So if you're Aphantasic -- there is a cure. You just have to work on it and slowly but surely, you will gain the ability to visualize.

Hope this definition was clear.

Friend: Why's that...?
Me: I'm aphantasic. Look it up!

aphantasia 

Aphantasia is a misnomer, commonly referring to the inability to create pictures or images within your head. It affects less than 2% of the population. It does not affect visual memory or imagination/creativity.
A good metaphor is if you imagine your brain as a computer, your eyes as a keyboard, and your mind's eye as a monitor. The computer and keyboard still work, but the monitor is unplugged.

"What is that?"

Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
