I Can’t Recognize Faces — Living with Face Blindness

from Old Asian Lady Hosted by Sharon Landon

What if you couldn’t recognize the people in your life—not even someone you love? In this episode of#OldAsianLady, Antonella Gismundi shares what it’s like to live with face blindness—a neurological condition that makes it difficult to recognize faces, even familiar ones. She talks about how this has shaped her daily life, from navigating social situations to developing other ways of recognizing people through voice, context, and subtle details instead of faces. This conversation isn’t just about a condition most people have never heard of—it’s about perception, identity, and how we connect with others in ways we often take for granted.
