Multiple personalities

[♞RedLotus♞ 360]

So earlier today I was taking a look at all the crazy subcultures and cliques that happen to exist; and surprisingly enough, tumblr did not disappoint me. Upon my surprise, there was a group of pseudo-schizophrenic individuals who suffered from some sort of multiplicity disorder. Now, I'm not a psychiatrist or anything, therefore I shall refrain from making comments on the validity of such mental illnesses. However, I found the concept of headmates to be very interesting. Basically, these people claim that they have "headmates", other entities that also live in their heads who happen to have personalities of their own. I thought it would be cool to make up some headmates that reflected different aspects of my personality. I don't take such notion very seriously, I only made them up because I thought it was funny and amusing. These characters do not influence me in any way possible as they would to someone with an actual personality disorder.

 

So anyways, I want to share my headmates and I also encourage you guys to make some of your own and share them here. These characters should reflect different aspects of your own persona; in other words, they should be like little alter egos that sort of describe you when you are in certain moods.

 

Here are mine:

 

Harlow - A  professor and psychologist from the 1800's. This guy is is sophisticated and carries himself in a very dapper manner; pretty much a well-rounded gentleman. Harlow represents my logical and intelligent side, although his demeanor hardly ever shows off on me. I only act like this when I am around people that I want to impress. Harlow is pretty fashionable and has good taste for luxuries too. Very witty during disputes, Harlow tends to be comedic and "smart assy" when arguing with people that are below his stature. His knowledge on different subjects can range from history and literature all the way to cooking and modern culture. He really gives off a "Sherlock Holmes" vibe. 

 

Lucien - I don't want to sound like some depraved emo kid... but everyone has dark thoughts once in a while, right? Well, Lucien is a prince from Transylvania who happens to be a cannibal just like Vlad the Impaler. This guy is very reminiscent of Dracula (or just any vampire in general). He is sadistic, dark, lustful, mysterious, and cold. Lucien represents the sinful and taboo side of me. Anyhow, he also happens to very fragile on the inside and can easily be torn by emotions. Lucien is also the most sexual headmate, as well as the most romantic too. Once in a while, most of us feel misunderstood by society and this is what Lucien is all about. Your typical goth guy. 

 

Cho - I'm not really a very spiritual or religious person, infact I actually consider myself to be an atheist. However, I have always had an open mind. I especially find Buddhist and hippie culture to be very interesting and worth studying. Cho himself is a Buddhist monk from the temples of the Tibet; he represents my avid love for drinking tea, growing herbs, buying spices, being close to nature, and meditating. He's very reserved to himself, not very sociable unlike the other two previous characters, as he is often in a state of deep thinking. Cho is very wise and patient with himself; he's the kind of guy you will see reading a book all by himself under a tree. 

 

Decimus - Despite having a headmate so serene like Cho, Decimus tends to be far more hip and social. He's an artist and sculptor from ancient Rome. Decimus represents my festive side, as he is often times celebrating minimal and great accomplishments alike by drinking wine and treating himself to exquisite food. He's symbolic of my gluttonous and indulgent nature; as I often like to pamper myself with treats and complements. Out of all the headmates, he's the one that will most likely let his stress out by drinking champagne, eating chocolates, going to parties, and taking bubble baths. He's very similar to Dionysus, the Greek god of pleasure, as he can be the life of the party. 

 

Anyways, I had fun making these characters... but now its time for us to enjoy yours! So go on ahead and tell us about your multiple personalities.

I have two personality's but they don't talk for themself

 

Adam who is the personality i use at school and talking to my friends and then Amy who is the personality i use to talk to my boyfriend and other friends far away. Not much to say :/

 

 

 

But just to give you a little info on the disorder you described. It known as multiple personality disorder and is a serious disorder which you tend to get from something happening to you when you was little. It's not good to have this disorder, You gain different personality which all speak for themselves so yes... They are basically people in your head, You don't control them. A lot of people will commit Suicide from this because it drives them crazy or one of the personality's takes over and kills you. The reason they are there from what most people believe is to protect the main host from danger, switching personality's to the right one to deal with the problem at hand which is why you get it because of a horrible event.

 

The reason i know most of this is because i had a friend who had multiple personality disorder, 7 as i recall. 

 

But there is some info about it If you wanted to know XD
