I've wondered if I have synesthesia. When I play music I don't literally "see" colours anywhere except in my mind's eye, but I definitely associate certain notes with certain colours. It's not something I think about actively or even notice unless I'm paying attention, but it's definitely there.

And it's only really when I'm playing music (I play guitar), not when I'm listening to it. It's less about keys than it is about specific notes. A is red, B is blue. C is more yellowy orange. E is... I'm not sure, just dark, maybe black? G is kinda dark blue, maybe turquoise.

This is the hardest I've ever thought about it and the first time I've ever tried to write it down, but those associations are definitely there and have been there for as long as I can remember, and I've been playing guitar for at least 15 years.

Do I have synesthesia?
