Is it my conscience or and imaginary friend? or whats wrong with me?

I have a good group of friends and always have but when I was little I made up this imaginary friend (as you do). The problem is, she's still here.. talking to me everytime I have a spare minute, I can't get rid of her! I started to wonder if it really is an imaginary friend? It can't be! Then I started wondering if its my conscience because lately she's always talking to me with what I'm doing and if it's right or wrong. I'm a pretty normal girl, and whenever I'm busy and not thinking about her she's not there.. do I just hate to be alone? Or is something actually wong with me. help!

Is It Normal?

  • I have always wanted that but I can never force myself into believing it! Kinda strange huh?

  • I never had one as a kid, but Buddha is sitting on my shoulder every minute reminding me to be compassionate and loving.

  • I did pretty much the same thing when I was a kid in fact sometimes Id try to imagine how some people I might meet one day would look like... its kinda creepy when you actually meet them though...

  • What r u not dealing with from your past? U talk to no one because u cant deal with certain situation, family member, ect..confront your past.

  • After reading this and the subsequent comments I have discovered that I evidently have no conscience. There is no voice in my head. Not ever. Only thoughts and memories.

  • I think it depends how old you are (im thinking under 16?) Sometimes we personify our thoughts into a "guide" like form, but you should know the difference between imagining you see and hear to really seeing and hearing. If you really see or hear this person, just like someone walked into the room and started talking. Then you need to get help right away as you could be in a psychotic state. Otherwise you are just a very creative person who created a "guide" to help you in life (even though its really you).

  • since i was around twelve i've made up complete fantasy worlds with different characters. there's this girl who is really just amazing. she's who i wish i was and before i go to sleep at night i think about her and wander around in this false reality. it's a huge escape. i think what you've created is similar. it's a form of the sub-concious.

  • Sometimes even as adults our inner dialogue takes the form of another person speaking to us, instead of feeling like we're doing the thinking ourselves. In that sense, I think you're probably right about her being your conscience. As long as she never tells you to do bad things, I don't see a problem. However, if you want her to go away and she won't, or she does start to tell you bad things, you should seek help. But otherwise it sounds like you're a pretty normal person.
