umm...yes I do and it's episodic (thank god) and very uncomfortable at timeshttps://twitter.com/ctrlcreep/status/984301600742264832 …
how rare is synesthesia? I don't know any others irl but it's not something that comes up in normal conversation very much so maybe I do but just don't realize it.

https://www.bu.edu/synesthesia/faq/ … they don't really know but it's fairly rare, apparently. the estimates cited here are as high as 1 in 5000 and as low as 1 in 100,000. I'm inclined to think it's higher than measured because many synesthetes don't realize that they are.

One of my old old buddies is synaesthetic I might be borderline sometimes but I think it's pretty faint compared to him He experiences music as color, possibly relatedly is a world-class choral singer, also probably relatedly is epileptic

cool. my main modalities are [visual|auditory]->olfactory and [visual|number]->texture. I've definitely had episodes where I synesthetically felt eye-contact on my skin. Very very strange. Some synesthetes are always on but mine isn't. Consistent but episodic.
