Synesthesia
Does anyone on here have any forms of synesthesia? All my life I have had:
Grapheme-Color synesthesia: I associate Letters, numbers, and even people with colors, though some people called projectors can actually see the color, I only see it in my minds eye making me an associate.
Ordinal-Linguistic Personification: Letters, Numbers, and characters have sexes and personalities.
Number form- Weeks,Years, Months, and time itself are not linear to me, they have complex shapes which are hard to describe.
My mom has what I think is the most puzzling form of synesthesia
Lexical-Gustatory - She actually tastes things when she hears certain words. I.E. Practical tastes like chocolate.
Does anyone else have any form of synesthesia

So I'm not a freak for thinking that ozone smells like electric blue, or that De-Loused in the Comatorium would look something like waves of purple and orange cresting and crashing together in a brilliant lava lamp(ish) display of colors, or that the word "lucky" evokes the taste of something like bonbons?

about myself after looking it up.

I took a general Psychology class last year and this was a brief topic of discussion.
My professor flashed a Word Document on the big screen and asked what the whole class saw. It was a Word Document filled with a certain character (Can't exactly remember) but there was a tiny square of '5's' in the document. Most of the class just described there was the box of five, but he kept on asking what everyone saw. I saw the fives, but I also saw a red square.
Synesthsia? Who knows... probably not, but from a very young age I've always associated number, letters, and words in general with colors. It was like a game for me when I was little, but it's more subtle these days.
