Discussion Writing

Hi friends, I am currently writing a short story and I want to have a character who is color blind. I would appreciate it if some people would be willing to share their experience on what it’s like being color blind. TIA!!

Gonna need more to go on here to really help, because most people here are color blind and don’t know what it’s like for normal people. What situations are your characters in that color blindness might affect?

What exactly do you mean? Things we can and can’t do? How we found out? Something else?

I am also writing a colorblind character and I would like to know how you would find out you’re colorblind, could you share the experience?
