Seeing Numbers and Letters in Your Mind.

With words i tend to see the word as the colour of the first letter, sometimes extending to the second letter.
how do u post in colour?

People don't actually see it physically, but in their mind they do.

The friend i mentioned in my first post is doing a whole project on it now, for her art course.
Im gyped i don't have it with music. but apprently that's really rare.

So, Foley, you're saying that people with synesthesia actually see numbers as colors, not just in their mind's eye?

Like, they'd see 5555525555, even if in reality the numbers are just printed in black? That's really interesting; makes more sense to me than the other thing people were talking about, I mean as far as it being a diagnosed "condition."

I didn't have it right up until the point where I read this post. Now I do. Thanks a lot, cyphercat.
