#auditory tactile synesthesia

[sounds-to-touch]

Sometimes I don't think about my audio tactile synaesthesia at all, for huge swathes of time.

But then I think about why it's so easy for me to identify specific voices in songs i like, and the closest word that comes to mind is texture.

I really do sort vocal sounds primarily by tactile means. When I'm certain I've identified a specific voice artist I'm thinking not about how it sounds, but about how that sound feels, physically, in my body.

Local rat shocked to find that not everyone physically feels sound like pulses, shocks, or crunchy gravel in their body (even with quiet sounds) and they do in fact have either 'tism or FND (or both) induced auditory tactile synesthesia

I feel like I've always had it and often wondered about it but it is at the forefront of my mind rn because I like to listen to lofi but I have to skip so many songs because the formula is usually soft, gentle lows and then sharp, louder beats, and those beats kind of pop/pulse in my body each time which is really distracting

It adds extra insight as to why my startle response is sky-high and why I'm so damn sound sensitive

Are there any other synesthetes who thought everyone experienced the same thing? I didn't find out it wasn't the norm until highschool when I asked my dad what color this one sound was to him and he was like "da faq u mean?"

i created a playlist that specifically induces my synesthesia (mostly my auditory-tactile) so i can get free serotonin/dopamine/whatever drug that is pushed naturally through my system when i experience the euphoric aspect of my synesthesia.

In case you were wondering what Car Radio by twenty one pilots feels like, it feels soft. I really feel it on my shoulders and wrists. It’s warm, and a gentle pressure that isn’t overbearing. The best way to describe it is when you have a quilt draped over your shoulders and it has that gentle weight to it.
