I am so glad you posted about prosopagnosia, Josie. I definitely have a mild form of it...maybe a bit more than mild. I've been accused of being rude or being on drugs because I don't recognize someone out of the context in which I know them (and sometimes not even IN the context of which I know them). It's especially true of people I don;t know very well. If the person changes hairstyle it's very, very difficult for me to identify them. I also use voice as a cue, and just general "feel" of the person's energy. I know I've hurt a lot of people's feelings and alienated people. The disorder is extremely embarrassing to me.

I don't seem to have a problem with recognizing myself.
