RE: What It's Like Living with Prosopagnosia (Face Blindness)

in #life7 years ago

I always laugh at my girlfriend because she always says someone looks like someone famous. I ask her what drugs she's smoking. "Because you have to be fucking high".

Maybe this is the problem.

How does someone get diagnosed?

Sort:  

That sounds a LOT like prosopagnosia, but I'm no doctor. I've definitely thought a person looked like someone else I know (or even a celebrity) until I've seen them enough times that whatever feature(s) I thought looked like them don't seem so close anymore.

Perhaps you guys can try this Google search. I'd also look at "celebrity look-alikes" where it's obvious to you that it's two different people, but perhaps it might not be to her.
