Hi I'm new. I was diagnosed with aspergers when I was about 7 or 8. I'm 15. I have a hard time making friends it's like everyone can talk 2 languages. I have synaesthesia and I live in northern Ireland.

Most of mine are colours:

Letters - colours (A is red, B is blue, C is yellow, D is blue, E is green)
Numbers - colours (1 is blue, 2 is red, 3 is green, 4 is possibly purple, 5 is yellow)
Personality - colours (My mum is yellow and pink, my granny is blue, my cousin is purple)
Days of the week - colours. This is one of my strongest (Monday is blue, Tuesday is red, Wednesday is orange, Thursday is red, Friday is blue)
Months - colours (May is green, June is orange)
Shapes - colour (A triangle is red, a square is blue)
Religions - colour I think I'm the only one in the world with this (Atheism is red, agnosticism is light blue, Christianity is yellow)
Country - colour (France is blue, Ireland is green, Spain is red)
Ticker tape. When I'm talking or listening I can like see the word. This is fading out though and I want it back.
OLP (1 is in his 30s he's strong. He always likes to get his own way - never takes a back seat. Often cross - he still makes a good dad though. At school he was a bit of a bad boy.)

Possible types

SSS - Today is at me. Yesterday is behide and tomorrow is in front.
Mirror touch - When I was watching QVC. They were selling something velvet. I could feel it.
Mirror gravitational - When someone's about to fall. I can feel like I'm about to fall to.

Do you have synesthesia >

Very interesting! Thank you for your answer.
I have synaesthesia, but it is not very strong. Sometimes I wish it would be stronger, I like it. My synaesthesia goes from music to colours and forms. But not every song has as strong pictures as another. When I listen to some chords or songs I see very much but with others it is not so much... I don´t know why it is like this. :?

Yea. I feel the same way. I like it but it's not that strong. I wish I had visual music. I think if someone could give me an extra type that would be it. Or maybe feeling music.
