I Have Synesthesia

I found out like two days ago that I (almost but not entirely certain) have ticker tape synesthesia. That means that I see the words in my head when I speak, hear someone speak or think vocally. If anyone is interested in chatting about synesthesia, leave a comment I guess!

I have a form of synesthesia, too. I associate numbers with colors.

@ElleInAutumn It’s usually a range. Like 60s are grey, 80s are navy. Some numbers have a certain theme in my mind. For example 14, 15, 16 have a football stadium as a background.

@SW-User Oh wow that’s really interesting. One more question: do you like actually see the colors when you look at the numbers on a page, or do the numbers just have the colors in you mind?

@ElleInAutumn Mostly in my mind.

That's interesting, I have never heard of this. I speak several languages and I colour code words in my head so I do not use them at the wrong time. I don't know if that is related, but that is how I visualise words.

Well that’s okay. It’s really cool though.
