@DancingStarGoddess: That must be so cool!
@iMystery: it is I wish everyone could see it, but have the feeling it would be too much for some. Mines very strong

@DancingStarGoddess: Damn wish I could see that!
@iMystery: there are video examples people have made to show what it's like, mine looks a bit different and has some other parts to it, but it's a beautiful example I will send it to you!

@iMystery: I don't see colors in music, though that would be pretty rad. There are different kinds of Synesthesia, I happen to have the lamest one, lol. I'm an OLP Synesthete, where sequences (numbers, days, months and letters) register as something else, if that makes any sense?

So for example, 1 is a red circle and a young boy with a very loud personality, 7 is a green isosceles triangle (pointing upwards, taller than it is wide) and a very cool but distant older brother, 9 is a red triangle (pointing downwards, all sides the same length) and a older sister about 30 years old, who has gone off and gotten a life for her own.
Also sometimes it goes in reverse, as in I meet someone who is just an obvious 24.

It would be so cool to see color in music!
@NorthernRoses: i see the colors, i have some of the other symptoms as well. things that involve time, perception, letters, numbers, many things. my sound/color symptoms are very strong, and even extend to speaking voices. been trying to get people to understand it all my life. i hear you <3

@NorthernRoses: I don't have that kind of synthesia. I can visualize colors through hearing certain numbers or sounds. Your case is really interesting
