The Brain Voices
Sin and Uluri © uluri
Was generally asked about (group chat) if their is a voice in my head that ever consoles me. Not quite. XDDDD Not quite. When you accidentally manifest a persona in your head for the shittiest personality OC you have, you don't quite get consoling responses. XD
Although sometimes when I'm having a lot of anxiety, the Sleep Me actually talks out of my actual mouth. The weirdest hearing "Are you alright" without me being the one thinking and saying it is weird. ((Or "Shut up" if I'm being loud. I can apparently wake up my Sleep self, and they don't like it.)
I'm honestly not sure how the question is supposed to be, because i know folks "inner voice(s)" and how they think differ a lot. Like some folks who can't "hear" an inner voice and only see their brain thoughts. A voice that is only theirs. A voice that is never theirs. I remember a conversation elsewhere of folks talking about how their thoughts think. weird topic.

I don't know either. I'm about as learned as you on the topic. I'd probably have to ask about it again.
I just call that one "Sleep me" because the few times we were 100% up at the same time I was sleep walking and watching my body move on its own for a while. Was creepy as hell feeling like being in a "back seat" situation. Since then I've just referred to that as sleep[walk] me even though it wasn't me. I did try bringing it up a couple years before when it happened the first time and it was ignored / overshadowed by the anxiety/panic attacks/paranoia/insomnia i came in for. But I also never said anything about the few occasions I'd get an answer from a question to myself without thinking about it. But it was definitely not me who was moving my body those times. I was trying.
Is this a sleep disorder with some creepy type of sleep paralysis while sleep walking, or is this a different me? I've had sleep paralysis recently, but it felt different. When "I" immediately answer back to my own question to myself out loud without Me being the one thinking about said answer, is that the me right now or the other one who can pilot me? Is it rude for me to name it "Sleep me" when I feel like it's not me? Would love to know, but also afraid to ask. How would I go about it? And I also don't really dislike it?

So it's creepy but you don't really dislike it you say? Hmm, hmm, hmm.
I can understand how it'd be hard to bring something up in sessions with a therapist/etc., I've been there before, but hell I'd definitely ask about it again if I were you. I don't think it's rude to call it your "sleep self" personally, gotta call it something, right?
It could just be a case of sleepwalking combined with sleep paralysis. Have you had sleep paralysis before recently? It might be a personality thing, I don't know, yeah. It's definitely interesting to hear about; the brain is... weird in general.
You can PM me more about it if you want, if you're comfortable sharing more, and if you don't want it out in the open.

I have gotten an MRI before for my lovely little brain. I went in for neurology because I've struggled to read, and my head was pretty loud it gave me headaches. Brain came back squeaky clean on the MRI and then I got sent off to psych to a Dr who gave me medicine that made me hallucinate among other side effects and did t believe me and instead wanted to up my doses. (I didn't go back...)
I've kinda decided from talking to everyone here maybe I should ask my new drs since they have been listening to me about stuff unlike the other one i had.
