I'm very new to SDAM and aphantasia - just discovered them and I'm sure they apply to me

There's a lot to contemplate and I've come across one thing, that has just occurred to me, that I haven't seen talked about yet - I'm wondering if it's associated with SDAM.

My wife and I are retired. She's endlessly keen to go away, travelling, visiting new places. I'm keen to do this too, but I'm finding it very disruptive to the projects that I'm working on at home.

Every time I return home from a trip away I struggle to pick up momentum from where I left off. My wife will ask me what my plans are for tomorrow and I'll just say " I'll be trying to find my feet" - it's always the same, it takes me days to find my feet! 😂🤯😳

Does anyone recognise this? Or is it just me? Please don't tell me there's another obscure divergent condition?

My wife will wake up in the morning, go through whole day without a single sexual thought, go to bed without thinking of sex, and wake up 24hrs later having had not a single sexual thought. She will repeat this cycle day after day - through weeks that become months, the pattern is only ever interupted by external input.

I, on the other hand, wake up thinking about sex, have multiple kinky sexual thoughts throughout the day, go to bed thinking about sex and wake up in the morning ready to play!

This, I guess, is what we could call a mom?
