“Chocolate chip cookie. Chocolate chip cookie. Mmm…chocolate chip cookie.”People who know about my synesthesia do this to me. They lean close to my ear, whisper sensuously the name of a food, and inadvertently trigger a craving for that food or a specific taste or sensation in my mouth. Advertisements do the same with their images and descriptions, as have activities and sights unrelated to food at all. Digging in moist soil put me in the mind of brownies. The color of room sent me hunting for a vanilla bean shake that tasted just right. If you have been overpowered by food cravings you know they get costly.I have tactile-gustatory, color-gustatory and lexical (spoken and written language)-gustatory synesthesia. I spend money eating out that I really should be saving, and take more time than I prefer to admit searching grocery stores in quests to satisfy some induced craving. Dieting and meal planning prove difficult.(The fun part: Reading labels on food packaging as I am consuming its contents enhances the taste.)Ordinal-Linguistic Personification and grapheme-color synesthesia have me forgetting names when people fail to look like their names. I once took a class with a Julia who looked exquisitely like an Amanda. Only the most disciplined focus kept me from addressing her by the wrong name every single time I saw her.Other details about people have eluded me for the same reason, in particular where they are from and the names of the streets and towns where they live. I thought a woman lived in the state of Maryland when in fact it was Connecticut. She must have clarified this a dozen times. It had nothing to do with the character of the person or the place. She simply did not look like the word “Connecticut.”Witnessing or reading about violence leave me dissociated in part as a result of mirror-touch synesthesia (though PTSD complicates things). I lose focus and physical coordination for hours to come. On the other end, witnessing another person caressed or getting a massage (and feeling how it feels on them, without the satisfaction of its effects) leaves me yearning intensely for the same.On the topic of trauma and fears, I cannot escape some things that disturb me just by avoiding their images. Words are enough for me to feel, taste and see them in minute detail. Just the word “insect”…
