I have bipolar and it feels like my brain just tosses things at me. I get some really good ideas and I am quick with jokes because i don't even think, my brain is an absurdity machine.

    Do you have aphantasia?

    I feel like people with aphantasia are less likely to be bipolar because we do not play emotional memories with images.

    From my understanding people can change their moods thinking of a beach? Like "Imagine yourself on a beach" and it could make a non-aphant more relaxed and calm?

    I feel like my emotions are pure in the moment. Yes I could recall an event that gave me an emotion but it's nothing like experiencing it in the moment.
