Living by the Colours I See in the Light: The Joys and Challenges of Having Ambient Colour Sensitivity

By Jennie Williams

My son and I have an experience that, as far as I know, is not yet recognised by health professionals. It is not an eye disease, colour blindness or Irlen Syndrome. We experience: Sensitivity to light (photophobia).Sensitivity to colour, which changes constantly through the day and seasons. Colour may not look 'right' due to the way we perceive the light-waves in the atmosphere in that moment and/or the degree of luminance of the colour we are looking at, giving us unpleasant symptoms. Ambient colour sensitivity occurs when we are overly sensitive to the spectrum - the light-waves we perceive in the atmosphere. We can't turn off the sensitivity or shut it out by closing the curtains or closing our eyes. Whereas with all other sensitivities, you can either remove the stimuli or remove yourself from the stimuli, when it comes to spectral sensitivity, the stimuli of the light is constant. Our experience of light isn't just photophobia, leading to avoidance. We feel it through our whole bodies, our thought processes and our emotions. This book has been created especially for highly sensitive children and adults (some of whom may have been diagnosed with ADD, ADHD, Sensory Processing Difficulties, Anxiety, School Phobia, Depression or Chronic Fatigue and more . . .)Do you feel that something is holding you or your child back in confidence / ability - something that you just can't put your finger on? Might you or your child have ambient colour sensitivity?
