For a second there I thought I scrolled past an article that said SOPA and PIPA need your help and I was about to unleash a torrent of fury at someone who was Wrong On The Internet. I think I realized that I'd misread before I realized the futility of that.
I had about an hour, hour and a half of feeling like the only reason anyone gave a damn what I had to anything was because of what I write, the patterns I can extrapolate and spit out, the voices in my head, whichever you like to call it. Then I managed to kick it in the teeth and make it shut the hell up, but it's still an interesting question. Dilemma. Something. At what point does it stop being healthy to hold these patterns separate from yourself and treat them as other people? When you stop being able to function? When you do it at all? (Fuck that.) When you can't tell the difference between yourself and the voices in your head, your Also-Me's, anymore? I don't know. I'm just glad I got that kicked in the teeth.
And then again, it's hard to be depressed when [redacted] calls you up from the other end of the earth about a ginormous weaving yarn order for fucking [redacted]. Obviously I can't say anything about it right now, but let me tell you guys this is fucking exciting. Okay, a couple of you do know because I couldn't resist bouncing privately, but I'm trying not to bounce this all over the internet, as minuscule a detail as this is. I mean, it's probably not going to be something anyone but the family would notice. But I will know. And I will be able to point and squeal and go HI I TOUCHED THAT THAT WAS IN MY HOT LITTLE HANDS AND I SENT IT OUT AND MADE THAT ABLE TO HAPPEN.
So, yeah. No one can harsh my groove over that. I'll be over here, grooving and waiting for the follow up call.
Also, I just did that Google Ads Preferences manager thing? AHAHAHAHAHA Google thinks I'm an 18-24 year old male. Oh Google. You are so very far behind the times.

And you are most definitely not only valuable to me because of the made up voices. I appreciate the writing and the understanding - both of the stories/craft, and of my own dealings with the phenomenon - but that's far, FAR from the only thing that makes you mean so, so very much to me. *snuggles tight*
Also, I think the boundary to unhealthy is likely passed when the person loses sight of the fact that the also-mes are, in fact, made up. I think that's when it passes from pretendy fun-time games, or stories, and goes into problem which can cause harm to the person. But that is... my thought on the question.
