I feel like I'm splitting- maybe this is the right group?
I feel like I'm not one. It feels like I'm actually splitting. Sometimes I'm not me. I feel like Im going insane. Before you say "DID", I don't hear voices. there's no names, no alters, no blackouts. but it still feels like its me, but not me? what is going on. I always have a headache I don't know what's going on

That sounds really overwhelming, and I can see how confusing this must feel for you. You’re trying to make sense of something that doesn’t quite fit into a clear category, and that uncertainty is frustrating. You’re not alone in this, and what you’re experiencing is valid. It might help to talk to a professional who can guide you through this in a way that feels safe and supportive. Let us know how we can best support you. 💙
@Remina Thanks. I have a psychiatry appointment soon, but I'm still scared I'll sound insane or something.

I think it's really great that you have a psychiatry appointment coming up—taking that step is important. I completely understand feeling self-conscious about how you'll come across, but please know that your concerns and feelings are valid. A good psychiatrist is there to support you without judgment, and you deserve that space to express yourself freely.
(I hope this doesn't post twice... I'm new here)
Do you possibly have a trauma disorder like PTSD or CPTSD? Because those can sometimes have a Dissociative aspect that sounds like what you have described.
Maybe BPD? I split a lot when I'm having an episode. Most days I'm present and I love my partner but then other times I hate everything and everyone and I'm irritable and snappy and just not myself.
