Do you see the days of the week in colour? Do you see sound as colour? So synethesia is a neurological condition that can be diagnosed as part of an autism spectrum disorder or as a independent condition. Synethesia is characterised by the ability for a person to experience flashes of colour when hearing sound. Or a person may relate a certain colour to a certain word, phrase or set of words. I have this experience where I see the days of the week as certain colours and I also see the months as colours to. They all have different colours but they do have a relationship to each other, and a sort of feeling that accompanies each one of them. This condition is fascinating and also quite common in a person on the autism spectrum. Please leave a comment if you have anything to add, I read every single one.

I experience tics with autism, which are impulsive reactions to situations. For example if I am overwhelmed stressed, or nervous I have a tic that occurs where I hit my chest and cough. Tourette’s is sometimes co-occurring in autism to, so a person could be diagnosed with autism and also Tourette’s at the same time. But they are also diagnosable independent of each other, so you can be diagnosed with only autism and or only Tourette’s...
