Could I have Synesthesia?
Hi, I (19f) am questioning if I have synesthesia. Here are things I have noticed that make me even raise this question:
- Visual-Gustatory
- Auditory-Gustatory
- Visual Personification
- Calender
- Concept Color
- Things that are just the same (idk what the term is for this)
I will be going in order of the list.
- I can taste the texture of the word Gettysburg (it has the texture of whatever elmos nose is made of).
- Whenever I see the blueprint for building mode on Fortnite I can taste the texture of that too which is a very smooth texture, but not smooth grainy. These are the only 2 I experience without a doubt that is 2 senses mixing.
- Whenever I hear Bongos, this ones hard to explain but the best way I can describe it is that it tastes like a deep curve texture. Like, in a skater ramp way.
- I also personify colors. Red-Purple are boys (Purple tho is like this emo grunge dude) and Pinks a girl.
- I also see Dogs as boys and Cats as girls.
- The months of the year also have colors, but this one I’m not sure counts because this goes back to this calendar I saw in elementary(?) and so I automatically have the colors assigned. But it comes up as automatic when I hear just the month alone.
- I’m not sure if this counts but Science is Green, Math is Blue, English is Red, and History is Yellow.
- Idk if this counts but some things are just the same to me mostly ? Like a 1940s Steam Train & England Architecture go hand in hand, same with Bongos and Deep curves, and the words Casecadia/Casecade and Windex.
Please lmk your thoughts!! these are the only things I have experienced.
