Is it normal i have personas...

42% Normal

I create personas. Most of them stemmed from online but I made actual drawings...personality listings...whatever I wanted for them.

I have yet to act them outside of my home, but I plan on doing it.

Some of them have made friends, friends that like each a different one a lot. I don't want to hurt those people, but I can't help having these different personalities.

Main ones are of my opposite gender.

I really wish I could stop, but I can't. And no, I'm happy with my gender but I just really, truly, love acting as the opposite sometimes! I'm not even homosexual but the opposite gender loves me sometimes...

I don't know.

I've been doing this for so long but now I feel like crying because I've gotten close with somepeople and it's a lie. I mean, my feeling aren't, all the things I've said to them I meant sincerely, they're great people but I don't want to break it all apart.

It should be noted that I love to dress up. Wigs, costume makeup - you name it. I'd want to get into acting but I don't want to take classes or anything; though apparently my friends say/imply I'm convincing (that or they take things too seriously - I was being sarcastic but...oh, whatever.)

Is it normal that I have personas? To be honest none of them interact/know they exist so it's not like it's a whole family...I don't want to hurt others. And I'm really happy with my gender but, I really think it would be fantastic if people could switch at will! If only zerophilia existed :,(

Alternate personas are common among Drag Queens and Drag Kings. I believe you should tone it down a little just because it seems like you have too many personas. But I do get the feeling that you're gender queer. That doesn't make you homosexual. If you're itching to do a little drag go out and do it.

  Gender queer? What does that mean? I know someone who defined themselves that way, but I never learned what it meant, haha.
  
  And I don't have too many anymore; I used to X) Now I only have one. Thank you.

    Gender queer means that you don't feel like you relate to the society set definitions of man and woman. It has nothing to do with your biological sex or sexual orientation. And most importantly it is normal.

        Yes, it is ok! There are some genderqueer communities that you can probably interact with.

I do this too. I'm kinda wondering where you use the personas online. I have also had girls attracted to me when I use male-perceived avatars and no one suspects otherwise... I feel bad but then, they are the ones who assume. I also love to dress up and look like a completely different person including gender, it's a lot of fun, but I'd be too shy to do so in public but maybe somewhere like a convention

  Well, if you don't want to do it in your area, you could do what I have in mind and go somewhere will nobody will (hopefully) notice you? Like a mall a few towns over or something :3

I think you may have Lyme disease, from the symptoms you describe.

Totally normal. I love to create personas and then draw them out. Im a huge Roleplayer and normally have most of the people online I chat with compleatly convinced that I am that character. Gender or otherwize. I think its compleatly normal. There is nothing wrong with it. Unless you have fought hard that you are the oposite gender, then i guess you could feel bad about it, but really who cares. If your not going to meet these people outside of the computer, they should just accept you as your personality. Friends are friends right?

It's normal to act somewhat differently with different friends, but this really doesn't sound healthy. I would suggest seeing a doctor.

  I saw a therapist for depression two years ago but she didn't help. I self-cured myself and I couldn't be happier.
