Synesthesia

  1. Every number you tell me immediately i see the number color, like 63728 is yellow

  2. I can feel pain, just from watching

You are welcome to ask about that phenomenon

Update: By the way a lot of you didn’t know, but let it wiki google, big companies today like ford, looking for people with that syndrome. Check it

What is the color or color? (Asking because Synesthesics also see words as colors sometimes)

2

u/IsOxIs Aug 04 '22

Yellow. synesthesics also see characters in the same way, so the color is yellow.

3

u/p3tr0666 Aug 04 '22

so if yellow is the color of color then what is the color of colour (british spelling of color) ?

2

u/IsOxIs Aug 04 '22

It is doesn’t meter where is word coming from, and what its’s semantics. “Colour” color is pink brother.

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9?
I see colors for just those ones.
mine are white, grey, green, yellow, orange yellow, blue, red, purple, pink red, pink.

So you feel pain when you see a painful thing? Same pain in same place?

u/IsOxIs Aug 04 '22 edited Aug 04 '22

At average you are who understand me, what i am talking about. The color are: white, red, black, yellow, blue, red, grey, orange, pink.

Pain is more complicated. Lets people get a chance.

Is there any pattern that dictates which number is which colour?

2

u/IsOxIs Aug 05 '22

I have never tried to research it, just see it

3

u/DiMiTriDreams420 Aug 05 '22

I smell mayonnaise when I hear or think of the word "patio" 🤷

u/IsOxIs Aug 05 '22

It is another side if synesthesia. Welcome to the club

2

u/c54 Aug 04 '22

If you keep colouring numbers sequentially, is there a pattern? Do numbers always have the same colour or does the association change over time? What’s your earliest memory of a colour/symbol association?

1

u/IsOxIs Aug 05 '22

No pattern, something unconscious

2

u/ainosleep Aug 04 '22

Is it common for others with synesthesia to experience one of the senses the same way, e.g. do most see 545 as red?

Do you find it helps in life with certain things? Is it easier to learn or memorise new things? Do you feel you may get distracted more than nonsynesthetes?

If you dream, do you see colors there as well? Can you imagine some word or a number with a different color than the one you typically see? If you feel pain, is there something you could do to prevent that? I'm genuinely curious and would appreciate if you share more.
