For some, perhaps there has been little chance for explaining how they perceive the world around them because of the fear of being labelled a "nutcase".

I perceive color differently than most - to me color has depth. If I put a white paper on a table, and then put a multitude of colors on the paper (even different intensities), I perceive the colors as being at different depths within the paper. This includes black.

Thus, as I was growing up, reading was significantly different for me - I perceived the letters on a page as being at different heights from the paper and I had to learn how to sort out the words because they had an extra dimension to them.
