A precursor to the emergence of a second personality (everyone has a second personality)

With the popularity of a series of movies and novels, such as Identity, Transcendence and Multiple Personality, the "second personality" is well known to the public, but many people mistakenly think that the second personality is caused by personality split and is a serious mental illness.

However, each of us has a second personality, but it exists deeply in our subconscious and has not been awakened.

At present, the theory of cognitive emotional system (1995) has different views on personality awakening. Here are three ways to awaken the second personality.

What is the second personality From a psychological point of view, the second personality can be called "the second personality", which refers to a person's normal personality before schizophrenia.

In general schizophrenia, the second personality will replace the main personality, and even the main personality will sleep forever.

However, the "sub-personality" is not entirely a split personality, but a personality that coexists with the main personality.

In most cases, two kinds of personality can't appear at the same time, which keeps the uniqueness of personality.

Sub-personality usually exists only in the subconscious of people's minds, but it will be revealed from time to time, forming a different side from the main personality.

If the main personality is an extrovert, then the derived secondary personality is likely to be an introvert, and in many other aspects, the two personalities have some commonalities and are consistent.

This is how people's normal mental state is maintained, otherwise everyone may become mentally ill.

In many cases, there is a great difference between sub-personality and main personality, which directly threatens the main personality.

American psychologist allport (1937) put forward the theory of personality traits.

He divided personality into two characteristics, identity and personal characteristics.

When this trait is used to describe an individual, it is a personal trait; When this trait is used to describe a population, it is called * * * homology.

We can describe a person as friendly and aggressive, at the same time, we can also describe a group as friendly and aggressive.

In Freud's works, many places reflect the existence of individual internal diversity.

Awakening ways: Based on the related theories of personality psychology, this paper introduces three ways to awaken the second personality:

1. Daily record

First, prepare a dark diary to record the most impressive events of the day.

If you can, you can use the memory of characters in novels and movies, because it is easy to assimilate your subjective personality with your memory.

In this role, set your desired personality, hobbies, looks, etc.

However, your personality had better match your basic memory. If you use an abused memory, but his character is gentle, it is unreasonable.

In character, it is best not to have contradictions.

However, the character and memory of the second personality should be a gentle person. If you choose a fierce personality, the second personality may do terrible things in the future, and you can ask questions about gender at will.

During this time, the main personality had better not think about anything, and the mental state has been concentrated on the second personality.

You can think and observe things with the thinking of the second personality in the early days. You must firmly believe in the existence of the second personality and keep it that way for a long time.

At this time, the second personality has been developing continuously. When the main personality is about to emerge, imagine that the second personality is sleeping, otherwise it will be easy to mix with the main personality.

Using dark books is more helpful to stimulate the second personality, record the most impressive things every day, and it is also a psychological hint to awaken the second personality.

One day in the future, when you open your diary, you will find things that have never happened in your memory, even your handwriting doesn't match you. This is evidence that you have a second personality.

2. Do something completely different from you.

For example, eat with your left hand, go to a place you never dared to go, talk to yourself in imaginary language, or set yourself up with a completely different person.

At this time, the second personality often appears to protect the main personality.

At the same time, doing something that you can't do at all shows that the second personality is more powerful than the main personality.

In most cases, encountering difficulties that you can't solve is the best time to stimulate your second personality.

3. Psychological suggestion method

We can use something we think is meaningful to help us awaken the second personality.

For example: clothes, jewelry, etc. We can put on this kind of special clothes at a specific occasion and at a specific time, and trigger our second personality with constant psychological hints.

Many times, self-psychological suggestion plays an infinite role in stimulating personal potential.

Conclusion Although awakening the second personality is still in the exploratory stage, we can help ourselves solve the difficulties in life by awakening the second personality one day in the future.
