I've been keeping this a secret for a really long time now, and I've been trying my best to hide it.

It all started a few years ago, I started passing out. At least.. Thats what I thought.

Like, I'd be in my room drawing, and then I'll go blank. Next minute, I'd be in another room holding a sissors, yet having nothing to cut. After a few weeks of this happening, my mom then comes out and tells me, "Is something happening at school?"
"No.. Nothing special except for a test."
"No, Not that. Is something bothering you?"
"No.. I'm fine."
"You've been acting really weird lately.. You sure you're alright?"
"Yeah mom.. I'm fine.." I hadn't yet told her of my odd black outs, I was really worried with myself by this time.. But, I didn't want to worry my mom with this, so I kept it to myself.

I then went blank again about a week later, waking up with tears in my eyes, and cuts on my arms. I was so scared, I thought I was going crazy. But still, I kept it to myself. I then wore long sleeve shirts to hide all the cuts, but these attempts didn't stop my mom from noticing the slices on my body. "What happened to you?"
"I don't know. I just.. Hurt myself some how."
"How do you not know?"

The cuts only multiplied.

Since my dad had a night shift in work, we barely saw eachother, so I didn't have to worry about him killing me for "hurting myself." And, my mom knew he'd beat me if I started cutting myself.

The black outs only got worse, I then woke up, having my mom yelling at me, but I had no idea why. And this wasn't the only time something like that happened to me.

Not long after, my mom found me a theripist...

He found a way to talk to... "My other self."

He told me that 'she' wasn't happy with 'us.'

Luckily, this all started to calm down after many classes with my theripist.

I'm now much calmer.. But "My other self" is still with me..

So.. To tell you the truth...
I'm not so sane.
