I will try this at some point, but
Any advice for those of us with little-to-no mental imagery?
Once when I was sad I used a thing which I think I saw on LW, of typing out my thoughts as they occured. It sounds kind of similar to this; any relation? (It helped me to feel better, but I haven't had occasion to use it since; and it hadn't occured to me to do it when not-sad, but maybe I will now that it has occured to me.)
Cue everyone being surprised that non-imagers exist.
(If it's any consolation, whatever I gain by being a strong imager is compensated by weaknesses in facial recognition and word recall...)
And then cue the obligatory link to the most popular inflation-adjusted LW post ever. http://lesswrong.com/lw/dr/generalizing_from_one_example/
