Poor Memory, SDAM, and Amnesia

Discovering Your Mind - Aphantasia and Beyond

Send us a text

In this episode we explore the topic of memory from the perspective of memory deficiency and specific conditions, situations, and disorders that play a role. We spend much of the episode trying to figure out exactly what SDAM is. I have never had a good handle on it, and it seems to get more confusing the deeper you go. In the end, we get a little closer to understanding the reasons why it is so confusing and we discover its strange and interesting link to aphantasia.
