An open-ended community for asking and answering various questions! Permissive of asks, AMAs, and OOTLs (out-of-the-loop) alike.

In the absence of flairs, questions requesting more thought-out answers can be marked by putting [SERIOUS] in the title.

Hearing and vision, with some tactile and proprioceptive.

Do you feel it adds something to your life?

[โ€“] drwho@beehaw.org 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I don't know. When it's suppressed for some reason there is certainly something missing from my life.

It's funny like that. We all have such a unique way of perceiving the world. Yet it is normal to us.

I was in my late 20's before I found out that everybody didn't see sounds. Not an uncommon revelation in the synaesthetic community.

Yeah same here with experiential/visual thinking. Lots of people just don't believe me. And I can't imagine what it's like to think in abstract concepts or language.
