[quote=Anonymous]Just to clarify, OP, synesthesia is not a hallucination. It is sort of like the opposite of being colorblind, if that makes sense. Do read up on it. If your DD has it, she will be in the company of Einstein, Billy Joel and his daughter, numerous musical composers who have heard music in color, Lady Gaga (no kidding), Pharell Williams, and so many others. It mostly enhances peoples' lives, especially musically and with eidetic memory. If your DD has mirror touch syn, she can get accommodations for some school assignments that would be cruel to put her through, such as dissection in high school biology. Synesthesia has some very cool neurobiology behind it and most "synnies" cannot imagine what it's like for others to live in a world that is less colorful. It's not something I think about daily, but when I do, I'm grateful for it. [/quote]
