Okay so ever since around the end of 8th grade i have off and on been changing personalities. Mostly my looks though, but also my likes and interests to revolve around a certain stereo type i guess? Like i went from completely emo/scene, to like this gamer kid/nerdish and then i went to having dreadlocks and smoking a lot of pot etc. and everytime i would just change what i like, what i dislike, who i am overall. Now i don't know who i am...i just..i don't want to have a disorder...i want to sincerely be myself..but with all of these changes...i don't know who i am anymore. I feel like in my core ive always been the same i just...can't find myself. I just want to feel normal...

    i have the same thing. ive come to the conclusion that im just trying to figure out who I am and want to belong somewhere. its probably not a disorder unless you actually believe you are different people, so dont worry. just try to do what makes u happiest and stop trying to label yourself. you can be an emo-nerd-pot smoker if that makes you happy :P i hope this helped.

        But have you tried it? How do you know it won't work until you've tried it?

        :P

    You just haven't found yourself yet. It takes a long time for some people. Don't worry, you'll get there. Don't try to be something your not, just be. Don't be ashamed of who you are and what you do.

    This does not seem like multiple personalities, search that on youtube, it's very interesting.

    I have a friend who sounds exactly like you. She think she has multiple personalities, but I doubt that is the case. Some people just change over time.

      I think this seems normal. It sounds like the OP is still young and figuring out their identity which is very normal, especially if you are still a teenager. There is a HUGE difference between MPD and an identity crisis.

      People who actually have multiple personality disorder do not remember what their other personalities do and their personalities switch back and forth, not for good. They also have black outs between alters. If you do not black out you do not have multiple personalities.

      If she had "multiple personalities" she wouldn't be aware of them.

      The very few people that have MPD have no idea that they do.
