      I have synaesthesia but only my family and a few friends know about it. So I'm not factored into these "documented rates." Which makes me think lots of people aren't counted. I know that in my high school, there was one other student with synaesthesia and one teacher. I also don't think they were counted because the teacher didn't seem to know she had synaesthesia (she complained of certain shapes and colours having an unbearable stench), and the other student with synaesthesia also didn't have a word for her "numbers-colours thing."

  • @emalietison
    @emalietison 7 ปีที่แล้ว +711

    I can smell too much. I could smell instantly when my roommate started a particular medication because of the sour tang that hung around her. I worked in an assistant living home (bad for hypersensitivity, to be true), and I could smell who was about to have a psychotic episode or go into a sadly short hospice stay. I'm embarrassed because I can smell who is on their period or if someone has cried recently. I could find people very quickly during hide and seek as a child, and I can't stand elevators because they smell like sooo many people. Anger, sadness, heartbreak, happiness, they all have a smell. It might sound cool, but it's all too overwhelming.

    • @killerweasel
      @killerweasel 6 ปีที่แล้ว +40

      Whenever someone feels an emotion, or has something physically change their body or it's chemistry (like taking medication) our bodies release hormones as little signals to communicate and give orders to the rest of the body. You could, theoretically, use swabs on someone and test them to find out how much of certain hormones are there to try and gauge or predict their mood/stress level/fertility/etc. Emalie Tison here, has their sense of smell attuned and refined to smell the hormones people produce and give off. Everyone can actually smell them, and are subconsciously affected by them. Emalie on the other hand can actually make out what they are and put labels on and differentiate between them consciously. If you trained it and worked with doctors and patients, you could probably do a lot for the medical community, and help others recognize when they have the same ability and develope it further. You could work as a therapist and help people actually understand what they are feeling because "I know when someone smells sad or stressed." Lol. Or maybe you could even smell some diseases before they are diagnosable. That would be inspiring and pretty darn neat just as a person. You could probably get paid to smell stuff and save lives! Or maybe none of those things, but it's still unique and you, and pretty darn cool.

    I have Synesthesia but it is mainly with my sense of touch, smell, and taste. When I open a bag of spicy chips, or am about to put something spicy in my mouth for the 1st time, my muscles in my jaw shiver and suddenly there is a kind of metal taste which goes away instantly..
    If I'm going to eat something that is sour, my nose begins to tingle and I feel a sourness in my gut. As soon as the food touches my tounge both feelings go away.
    If someone, or myself, rubs the bottom of my feet i can feel it in the opposite foot, but it also causes the feeling of capsaicin on my lips, like lightly burning, not painful or anything, but noticeable.

    Everybody who thinks they have synesthesia in the comments, its most likely you don't. Just because you color code 1-10 that's pretty normal. I do to, so do a lot of my friends. But if you color code numbers a lot, (and by a lot i mean more than 1-30). You have it if you can agree with the things in the video. Stop trying to get attention, its not impressing anybody.

      Jordan Kotzev because it’s strange and it’s an early sign of being colorblind. Plus there is probably a deeper story behind it. For example the teacher could have asked her like, “Hey why did you color the leaves green?” And then she probably would have said, “What do you mean this is Green?” And that would of caused the teacher to wonder what’s wrong and call her parents. There you go lol.

    i only recently discovered that synesthesia is a thing. when i did, i realized it wasn’t a normal thing everyone experienced. i have a type of synesthesia that makes letters and numbers colorful, as well as different sounds having distinct patterns, textures, and tastes. it’s all just a big mix of senses that i can’t really explain to anyone. i try to express myself creatively, and knowing i have synesthesia, i think it would be cool to make some projects solely based on my seemingly “weird” perceptions of the world.

    i have misophonia! it's like synesthesia, but it's a mixing of certain sounds and an intense negative emotional response
    imagine it like you're locked in a room with only some dude scraping a fork on a plate for hours and hours. that same anger and frustration happens to me with everything from the sounds of whistling and clapping to my chronic tinnitus

She just randomly told me about it, one day, and I was super shocked and blown away etc. Because she didn't act as so. She said she STILL didn't like the same kinds of veggies and whatnot, that she always used to. She also insists on eating as if she can still taste as well. Snacking on chocolate at work, etc. It was the craziest thing. Great video, BTW. It is super interesting and whatnot.

It allows me to interpret it however I want and I don't feel as though I have to take time and effort to understand it unlike the so called 'abstract art ' I see online or on Etsy. It speaks to me , telling me a story with the textures and the movement of colours all blended beautifully on canvas, like music.

    Sqaures are kinda angry at things around them, and they just generally aren't the nicest people.

The scent is the most strong when I think about or am shown a picture of a Velociraptor, it comes every time if a Velociraptor is involved, no matter the occasion.

    I actually have chromesthesia, or sound-to-color synesthesia, and I can hear colors when I listen to music.
    Although I have seen some comments already trying to tell people not to pretend you have synesthesia or any of the interesting conditions seen in this video, but I actually have it. Many musical notes sound like colors to me, like the F on a piano sounds like green, and B flat sounds like purple and gold. Keys also sound like colors. For example, I hear the D minor key sounds like a mix of blue, purple, pink, yellow, and orange, sort of like a sad sunset. Chromesthesia is actually very interesting if you think about it.

Also numbers have colors. When I was watching someone said 3 was yellow, and I went “Oh, no no no. 3 is dark blue. 2 is yellow.” My friends think I’m crazy but having a colorful mind adds to my life.

    I haven't been able to smell anything for almost three years, but I can still taste food. The food/beverage is sometimes a little blander than normal but other than that my sense of taste is completely in tact. I also sometimes get random "whiffs"of things if it's vacuum sealed like a candle or certain foods.

    I mean.. ok i'm really weird but i can see colors and human figures in numbers.
    Like number 6 is sportive purple girl in age of 14-20. Number 9 is independent girl between purple and pink in age of 22-26. 2 is fun yellow childish girl in age between 8-10. And so on and so on. 5 is fun short pink girl who always love to go shopping in age of 21-27. And 7 was pervert (sorry not sorry) blue teenage boy in age between 17-25
    Yes. Sorry for being weird :')

    One time I got the flu and during that time and 3 weeks after the flu went away everything I ate or tasted, tasted either different or nasty. Worst time and everyone around me thought I was lying or being harsh but I really didn't like how anything tasted. Can't imagine what the first guy is going through

    I hear some colors when things happen when I hear things like jazz, I hear like a brownish black. A lot of other genres of music like rock metal is a light grey, pop usually is a pink or purple, sometimes even cyan.
