Two Minds

[StellaLuna SkyWind]

Is it possible to have two minds in one body? And is it normal to feel like you're not something that you've been told you are? An example is being drilled in that your human, but now having thoughts that you really aren't all that human?

Maybe i'm just crazy but I've been having feelings as such for a while now, and it came with the confidence i've recently gathered for myself. And Also with seeing my dead grandparents. i have no idea why that has stemmed these thoughts, but i 'm not really sure about any or it, or their message to me. Can i get some help please?

You may want to seek medical help if you think you may be developing a psychosis.

Also, you're human. Please do not believe anyone who says you might be a changeling/fairy/vampire/otherkin, because it's nonsense. It's not unusual to feel out of place but you'd probably be surprised how human you are.

You mean like schitzophrenia? I think there could be something different than that, but the medical world calls it that. I believe there could be two souls inhabiting one body and that might be what schitzophrenia is, but I dunno. There is a lot of unexplained things in this world.

Well I'm fairly sure i'm not schizophrenic. I think they would have told me by now. And I'm not Bipolar. But I appreciate the insight. However the other question I have regarding this, is that i had a dream where my deceased grandparents came to me and told me that they would 'see me soon'. I'm not exactly sure what the meaning behind this is.

Wow, " see you soon?" That is kinda freaky. You could always just ask what they meant by that? I hope anyways. Good luck

If my late grandfather told me that I would take it as a "Life is short, enjoy it while you can, see you on the other side" kinda thing.

No, it's not like schizophrenia. Schizophrenia is like when you have hallucinations, delusions, disorganised and racing thoughts, when you get word salad and stuff. It's a bit misleading because "schizophrenia" the word, when you break it down, means "split-mind" or similar. Of course, in this situation she may be suffering from delusions or hallucinations, which would be indicative of schizophrenia wink

People often confuse it a bit with MPD or dissociative identity disorder, but that isn't really what she described, I don't think, as DID has a fair bit of lost periods of time involved. Also it may not actually exist, or could be a product of therapy. Personally I'm a skeptic.
