Does any of you have synaesthesia?
I don't, but I ask this because in a way it is transcending the senses, transcendence and/as conceptual and perceptual (as with objects/percepts) transcending being common in psychotic disorders (mostly so during mania).
In a way, but not a typical, strictly synaesthetic way, the changes in the largely autonomous, bodily processes we experience during mania (and depression) could be seen as a form of synaesthesia.

Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality. Our memories are more or less split in two by abstractions, conceptual reductions. Mood states with memories, concepts, attached. Memories of pain and those of joy. It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
