Do you ever feel like?

[BrianTex]

You aren’t your true self. Like, youv’e always been somebody else?

[everhopeful]

Yes. I feel that way.

[naturallycured]

I believe people have two faces, one they reveal in private, and another in public. Is that what you mean?

[BrianTex]

More like there is another you in another demension that lived the life that you didn’t.

[cbbrown]

I feel I can show almost true self here , with my partner and maybe at group. But never completely

[naturallycured]

I’ve had passing notions of my life being a metaphysical video game for greater powers, but I don’t take that very seriously now.

[Cloudd3ad]

I feel like a fragmented watered down person I used to be…

[anon47726586]

@BrianTex yeah I know the feeling I completely can relate. my personality who I am can shift all the time shift shift shift
its like I have multiple pd , but I don’t I just have one messed up one I guess

[SkinnyMe]

I definitely feel that way. I have my true self I reveal to my companion, and my semi false self I show here and to my family, and my false self I show everywhere else.

[toughluck33]

Ya but I watch too much Rick and Morty.

[antidepressant044]

I’m only truly myself around my boyfriend. I trust him to not be disappointed with me if I let down my guard and express my more negative side

[gobeyond]

Trust is very important if you want to be yourself with somebody. And that doesn’t happen too often.

When I was an insecure teenager I tried to be many people. Now after two and a half years of therapy I’m starting to identify what my values are and while some parts of me I have totally accepted though after considerable angst I’m still lacking in social skills to develop enduring and healthy relationships outside of my family dynamics.
