How does one experience synesthesia — the neurological trait that combines two or more senses? Synesthetes may taste the number 9 or attach a color to each day of the week. Richard E. Cytowic explains the fascinating world of entangled senses and why we may all have just a touch of synesthesia.

The sensations I experience(taste, touch, smell)have become so nuance i cant explain it anymore, its joint obviously…
I feel like I vaguely remember associating different things when I was a young child but it must have gone away quickly because I can’t think of what it was, and now the whole idea sounds crazy to me.
Omg I think I have it I can see AND hear if someone is a Karen
For me, all words have a colour or an object. I write a lot, stories and descriptions and things, so when I write something I pick a colour and then I write in thay colour.
I’ve always seen cars to have personalities and genders like how certain cars would be male and would probably be a dad (an suv). Idk if its the same thing or maybe bc i was influenced by the movie cars as a kid lol
I’m so confused
I’d always memorize facts with synesthesia. Like you have five facts to memorize and numbers one to five are white (1), yellow (2), red (3), green (4) and brown (5) in my head. So just search for words with the same color to stick them together, eg “money” is yellow, so it becomes fact 2, “ecology” is green so it becomes fact 4 etc. I memorized so quickly with this method, plus was sure I didn’t forget a fact since I numbered them all
#secretsuperpowersynesthesia
The dopamine fix you get from synesthesia is powerful than the dopamine fix you get from smartphones
Dosen’t everyone associate numbers with personality?
I’ve been doing this since I first learned of counting
Tuesdays are orange.
I used to think everyone has same. But it’s just me
I didn’t know I had synesthesia until my friend mentioned it
Tuesday is yellow
for me, letters and numbers have color, and sounds have a color and shape, and i also associate people with animals. the name Derek is a cheetah. and it is the color of an over-ripe banana, yellow with brown spots.
I thought everyone did this too until 2 years ago
My Tuesday is green 🙂
Lol. when I said to my family the Letter N and the number 4 is Hot pinkish color..
and the number 1 is yellow and the letter X is red and the letter Z is green, letter M is violet
Now I know that I’m not alone being an abnormal person xD
tbh my name tastes like cheese.
Thursday reminds me of rainy days and the color green for some reason
So how did you link orange and blue?
did some synesthetic infection suddenly spread cause everyone in this comment section suddenly has it
