Memory like a silent movie?

Post Reply New Topic

Hey still don't have a diagnosis yet, but I was just wondering. Do you guys tend to remember past experiences visually with no dialog? Like I can remember tons of stuff from my childhood to recently, but it's all just silent. Even though I remember what was happening it all just plays in my head like some old silent movie and I have no idea what was actually said. Of course there's a few exceptions, mainly if what was said affected or stood out to me and I don't really have the same problem with remembering TV and movies.

I can't see or imagine visual things in my head.

Yes my memory is pretty much like that looking back.

I'm a visual person. Everything I remember is pictures or silent films in my head. My mom called it a photographic memory. But I could never do what some people with a photographic memory could do (like read a chapter in a book and recall it word for word). I just remember things very plainly as a clear picture in my head.
