Ok So I have this thing called Synesthesia. Synesthesia is a neurological condition where two senses are fused together…. It’s the easiest way to describe it…. If you want a proper description or to know more read this :
HTTP://EN.WIKIPEDIA.ORG/WIKI/SYNESTHESIA
Every synesthete experiences it differently. I have grapheme → color synesthesia. This means I see letters, numbers, days of the week and months in color…. It’s hard to explain how I see it… I’m not gonna try… So lets just say I see them in color :)
I’m gonna put pictures of my letters and colors then explain them. They are similar to these colors but not identical.
Ok. So this is SOMEWHAT what my colors look like. It’s frustrating to do this because I can’t find the exact colors. The W is silver and it sparkles so bright. M is bright glossy red and X is pitch black and matte. The E is more purpley than grey… Z is brighter yellow than that… And U has a black outline that is like leather…
My letters and numbers have characteristics… X is pretty nasty.. never liked him…
Ok the 0 is transparent I couldn’t really figure out how to do a transparent number but yeah… Like the letters these colors are similar but not exact… They have characteristics.. for example… 2 is male, he is bubbly and so funny. He is openly gay and is one of my favorite numbers based on personality. 9 is much like X being very sinister…. 8 is motherly.
I didn’t make a picture of my months or days but yeah… Thursday is the worst day…. it’s burnt orange and he is judgmental… Sunday is dark green with some black in there but is very relaxed and chilled out….
I also see colors around people. It’s more like a glow. You can see through the glow and it flows around the person. Every person has a different color. (some are very very similar and some have no color at all) Just like everything the color never changes. Some people have really pretty colors and others don’t. It does kinda affect my first judgement of people. I usually keep somewhat of a distance from people who have a displeasing color…..
Anyways now you understand why I say some pretty weird stuff… I have always seen like like this I didn’t learn it, it just happens. My colors never change… If you have questions please please ask me.
If you are a synesthete I’d love to talk to you :)
Thanks
