Is it normal to feel like multiple people?

14% Normal
14 Comments

I feel like there's more people in my head than just me. They have different names, ages, personalities, etc. We can communicate through a weird form of telepathy. Sometimes they just watch what I'm doing, sometimes they comment on what's happening and sometimes it feels like they take over my body and I'm watching myself do things I have no control over. I've researched Dissociative Identity Disorder but it's impossible for me to have it since I don't have any trauma. (I'm 100% sure I don't have repressed trauma either since I was under constant supervision as a child). I also don't experience amnesia. If you know of anything else that can cause this please tell me so I can look into it.

    Sounds like you really have a certain case of multiple personality disorder.

    Even if some online doctor websites show certain symptom lists, it still doesn't mean that you wouldn't have it.

    You need to visit a doctor.

    You don't have any strange physical pain in your head or anywhere else though, do you?

    I'm no expert but, this sounds like an intense version of multiple personality disorder. It's good you're speaking to a therapist as cases like yours can turn ugly. I knew a guy who dated a girl that had a similar disorder and would change personalities rather drastically based on her mood. One day they're spending the day together, the next she stops and stares at him, threatening to kill his family if he ever dared betray her. This girl was often a sweetheart and so understandably he was taken aback by the sudden change. It's important you're honest with your therapist as they're then able to provide more effective assistance.

    Ask a psychiatrist instead.

      I do have a therapist and she suspects that I'm shizotypal but she doesn't think it affects my life badly enough for it to be a disorder. It can be shitty sometimes but still I would rather live with them than without them.

    I don't have DID, but I adore this lady's channel.

    -------

    So a while ago, I went down a DID rabbit hole for like a good two to three weeks lol. There are many other channels to choose from if you don't like the one I showed you.

    Anyway, from what I've learned, DID is formed in early childhood ( 0 - 8 more or less) when the brain is in those crucial stages of development, and you're experiencing some form of constant abuse that you couldn't escape from. As for your memories, every system is different and protect the core in various ways. For example, in The Entropy System, her personalities didn't reveal themselves until they felt she was ready, so most of her life she was unaware with the more graphic memories being held away from her. While in other systems, it could be chaos until everyone understands each other and get along.

    It's very interesting. One DID system even took her abuser to trial and won: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsXFcbPbvI4

        Why not do something constructive with it.

      well okay but my first theory before reading about DID is that I'm some sort of god and can create living beings with my mind and my therapists doesn't think that's a healthy thought to entertain
