Very light Grey. Most would say the colour I'm thinking of is white... But it's a little darker.

Monday- soft baby pink
Tuesday- light blue (the color of Crayola colored pencil called "light blue", not what most people consider light blue)
Wednesday- golden yellow
Thursday- light purple
Friday- red-orange
Saturday- red
Sunday- no real color, but I'd assign it gray, because I hate Sundays and they're usually rainy and depressing!

Firmly white. But I didn't know this was a thing. Wtf is this? I've always thought 3=red=f. and Q=purple=8 etc. I've mentioned this to other people and they just say, "You're crazy." Is this common among ASD people? Is it common among everyone? Also, 9 has a great colour. Kind of light blue. It reminds me of steel- stupid because steel is silver.


I do not remember the exact statistic but synesthesia of any sort is about 3 times more common in ASD people that neurotypical


mine does not associate colors with anything (I believe this is due to being partially color blind and this I am pretty sure due to my cones poorly developing as an infant since I am visually impaired) - mine manifests more as smelling & tasting things when I hear and also hearing things when I smell/taste. (so those senses blend rather than color/letter or other combinations)
