Yes, I have extremely strong synaesthesia. Some music and sound makes me move around, but mostly my synaesthesia is polychromatic so I get every other sense with shape and colour. I love it, and I use it in my writing, my dance, everything in my life. I revel in it. You're very lucky!
And yes, the thing that breaks you is your life purpose. I've never had to use Steve's exercise because I've always had a sense of what my purpose is. Without doing this exercise I have been through a drastic change of direction in life because I realised I wasn't living my purpose or fulfilling my potential. It's tough - you do have to face every block and "logic" that gets in the way. At the same time it's an incredible growth experience.
The most important thing is to to do what you love. Contributing to society isn't going to be worth anything if you're miserable while you're doing it. You contribute by doing what you love, by sharing your gifts and your talents and your music and art with the world. Nothing wrong with that.
