I fight myself a lot?

Sometimes I feel like I'm split in two. Actually, all the time. One part of me is logical and level-headed with "good" morals and denounces things that would normally be considered "bad". The other part of me the total opposite. It's like an angry and impulsive monster that lives inside of me. I feel like I have two totally different personalities within me that literally argue amongst themselves. Like, for example "Don't skip school, pass and get into college" "No f you, I'm skipping school" "No no, honestly don't". Sometimes more serious than that, but you get the point. Today I found myself pacing back and forth for something like half an hour just experiencing this in my head. I was just feeling scared and out of control for not knowing which of me will overpower the other. Is this normal? To feel like I'm at war with my own self?

      Wouldn't it be great if you could give yourself a swift kick in the balls?

    There is a term for that in psychology. Some of the greatest thinkers in the world like Socrates and Shakespeare have coined the process of having 'two people' in one body. It's perfectly normal (:

    You made it sound kinda crazy in your post lol But I'm like that to. There's a little bit of bad girl inside of me that wants to skip town, go on a vacation and get drunk out of my mind. But, i'm actually a good girl who did what her parents wanted, went through college, and doesn't do anything bad. I don't know about you, but I want to go wild for a week.. or even a month. Either way, if you're actually super conflicted, then just choose one and indulge in it. Do you want to be good or bad? Up to you of coarse, but being good isn't aweful lol *Nudge nudge* Sounds like you're just deciding weather you want to break loose or chill out. Make your choice or you're just going to stay neutral and confused :P

    I go through that a lot. Hell, most of the time. Just focus on the positive, and try to kick the negative to the curb. They both make valid points, but you have to choose one.

    Not normal, and in a way, not okay. I think it is okay to have multiple personalities (even ones you don't control), but having a negative one encourage you to do bad things is risky. But, it depends on how much control, if any, the personalities have on you. If them arguing is unbearable you might want to seek help. On a non-serious note, this is an amusing thought and reminds me of this: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GoodAngelBadAngel
