Hi Cacatuidae, welcome to PC!

I couldn't tell you what it is or isn't, but, I took anti-psychotics for a little while and it didn't seem to affect the Others in any way....it just made us pass out. Besides, I know that I'm not psychotic...a little bipolarish, but thats just a mood thing.

I don't know....I'm co-conscience and aware and can head talk to the Others, some aren't so much, but we all take turns doing the body thing. I feel that only a multiple will know that they are a multiple. It took us a while after 30 years of denial till we finally faced the truth about a year ago when we was like 46 even though we didn't want to believe it at 13. Talk about a reason to drug and drink a slow death which we did for 35 years.

Sometimes I can sit and watch us do things in a disconnected way as an Other runs the body. Who ever runs the body takes over the conscious...it becomes theirs to use.

We know when we switch, but memories are very tricky- they stay with the one that experienced them....but we still lose a lot of our own but yet can pull others memories up sometimes like we have a sharing account.

I can feel the pressure from the others if they are feeling an emotion. We are very switchy because everyhing in life is a trigger for us from moment to moment.

I think when it comes to "faking it", there is a sense of purpose to it. You can look at it another way and say that you are experiencing something that you are not sure of what it is.

I don't know what to tell you hon, but keep learning, researching, talking to your T and discover your self.
