I feel like there are two opposite sides to my personality, like for example, i have a boyfriend and would totally be faithful but then i always have this urge to go f**k someone else even though i know i'd be devastated if i did it, or the fact that i wouldn't do hardcore drugs but at the same time i feel that i really want to and need to, i have a desire to be happy but when i am i feel like i should do something so that i'm sad and vic versa, it just feels like i'm being pulled in two directions and if i keep going with the acceptable responsible kind of options i'm going to explode and go absolutely crazy. Is this normal?! I'm only nineteen and feel like i'm heading for a break down!

    Its not just one with me, its more like 6-7. My advice is to stick with the sensible one and ignore the urges from the evil one.

    I feel like that a lot of the time, I'm bipolar and have always attributed it to being bipolar.
    Although I think it's pretty "normal" for people to feel like that from time to time, I mean.. our brains are made up of two hemispheres that process information differently.

    Agreed with hotchickie81. Im a 28yo male and have felt the same way as far back as I can remember. Yeah its normal. If it gets too bad think about talking to a therapist, it can help just to get it out there to someone and they may be able to help you through these feelings.

    I know how you feel! It can be very frustrating... almost like you wanna try two different lives. Always wondering what the other life would be like, even though you would probably never do it...

    Yup, that's normal. I get the same feelings as you do.
