Miss, I don't think you know me well enough.
By character, I feel that I have split personalities. This is eerie. And. Dangerous!
Have you ever heard about a person having 2 personalities? Here's a definition from Wikipedia:
Dissociative identity disorder
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dissociative identity disorder is a diagnosis described in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition (DSM), Revised, as the existence in an individual of two or more distinct identities or ego-states, each with its own pattern of perceiving and interacting with the environment. To qualify as dissociative identity disorder (multiple personality disorder), at least two personalities must routinely take alternate control of the individual's behavior, and there must be a loss of memory that goes beyond normal forgetfulness. This memory loss is often referred to as "losing time". These symptoms must occur independently of substance abuse or a general medical condition.
Nah, my version of split personality is not as bad as described above. For myself, I truly know of my existance and what I am doing. What I meant by me having split personality is that I react and response differently when facing different person and scenarios. Take for example at work and with my boyfriend. At work, I can be a very shrewd and independent player. But when facing my bf, I will somehow or other lose control to think logically or rather, want to depend on him. I guess part of the reason is because of my family background.
I come from a single family with three younger sisters. Since the age of 9, we have been moving from one place to the other, before finally settling down in my present house. That was when I turned 12. So 3 years, I've been running here and there. Do you know how tiring that can be? Nevertheless, I must admit that I was happy back then. Without 'my' father and his tortures, I've been relieved from sufferings. I am fortunate.
Back to the topic, as a friend and as a relative, I act differently too. Even when facing various groups of friends. To my Secondary school friends, I am a very jovial and crazy person. To my Poly friends, I am a very capable and sociable buddy. To others, I am very quiet and hard to get close to. To my family, I am weak but yet strong. So which is the true me?
I believe all... everyone has a few personalities.
