He told the portal that he wants to ‘remember the people he meets’ and fears his struggle has given people the impression he’s ‘aloof’.
Earlier, Pitt reflected upon the condition and said that he mostly ‘stays home’ and avoids meeting many people.
As per the description from the National Institute of Health, Prosopagnosia is a neurological disorder that can cause people to have difficulty recognizing even family members or friends.
