What Would Make The Habit Of Imagining Dots And Colors Around Objects And Items That Are Visible Around You?

I don’t know why, but when I was in 8th grade, I started to trace things with my eyes. I also started to use certain amounts of dots in my mind to color them. One dot is white, two dots make black, and three dots make gray. Filling them in makes whatever color it is and one hard dot with my head makes it metallic. I am now a freshman in high school and I am asking for someone to tell me what this is.
