I have believed that some brains have more than one mind in them. My voices have completely different mindsets than mine, so I had to conclude that they were separate from me. So many people believe that everyone has only one mind, & that the other voices in the brain have to be hallucinations. I am so worn out trying to deal with all of it & getting nowhere, except it continually gets worse. So I'm considering the possibility that all of it is not really there. Maybe the brain has been tricking me, to entertain itself? Like when we dream all kinds of things when we're asleep. Sometimes we wake up from these dreams feeling we really were someplace & the people there were so real. But, unless there is such a thing as our spirits leaving the body for a while, they are only dreams, which are not mental illness. Are they?
