My dad basically bludgeoned his mind into aphantasia. He used to be able to visualize the rotation of an object, but he was at an age/in a time where Being Crazy was the worst thing you could be, and he didn't want to have to answer yes if someone ever asked him Do You See Things. So he made himself lose the ability, and he never managed to get it back.

Brains are a hell of a thing.
