Schizophrenia - General Discussion
in Psychology & Therapy ·
I’ve got a question about something I’m seeing, and honestly, it feels like we might be looking at multiple personalities, though part of me wonders if it’s actually some kind of schizophrenia. I’m a little worried because this person is a really dear friend of mine. It seems to me like there are two distinct sides to her—one that’s kind and good, and another that’s just malicious, constantly making things up, living in a fantasy world, lying, and picking fights. What’s even weirder is that when she’s in her "good" persona, she’ll say things through the lens of this other alter ego. She even gives me advice on how I should handle her while she’s acting as that second personality. This whole thing usually flares up during the spring and summer months.
