Yeah me too, but brains are weird. There’s no reason not to think something that happens to some of us, but is clearly not common, can be “unlocked” or “stimulated” by taking a drug like psilocybin.
Ah no no, sure. I’m not saying shrooms can’t do stuff like that. But I think it’s a natural ability humans have, that we can learn to do without shrooms. Like, the people in the video I shared above literally learned it. Some are blind y’know.
What would you say is the synesthesia part though? When it happens I can see things, like my hands, the room around me etc. not “shapes” or “colors” or anything.
Yeah, that wouldn’t be synesthesia, and I’m not exactly sure what it would be. What I do know is that we don’t have enough understanding of how how our brains work, and we need more research on stuff like this. Is it a positive or negative experience when it happens to you?
Except this exact same thing has happened to me many times, while completely sober.

It’s totally possible to have synesthesia experiences without substances. Some people just have it, and you might be one of them.
