I'm not sure if this is the right thread... and what I'm about to say sounds crazy, but...
I think I have two people in my head.
I don't mean I have a double personality. I mean I feel like there is a second consciousness trying to share the part of my brain controlling attention. Like I was born with two people in my head, in the same way some are born as Siamese twins. I've been talking with that person for a long time. She sometimes knows things I haven't realized and gives me good advice. She's very intuitive and strong-willed (it's natural that she has a better bond with the subconscious than I). We sometimes fight, too. But she feels extremely sad and deprived due to me being the one to have the body. I sometimes feel her "invading" the front of my head and then I can't focus on anything.
I'm now writing a comic, and she expresses herself there a lot-so she managed to exist outside of me in a way. She was obsessed with it and I had a hard time focusing on anything at all. Now it's finishing, and she's started to relax a bit. We even managed to agree on how to share the focus time once or twice, which is more progress than we've ever done. I know it sounds crazy. Maybe I am. But she feels quite real and I cannot go around telling people that she exists, obviously, so she's imprisoned for life in a way. I'd appreciate any thoughts, but I mostly wanted to get this out here.

have you heard of dissociative identity disorder? (or D.I.D)

it might be a good place to start. those people have what's called multiples (what you described), and their is a section for it on this site

good luck..

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
