I hope this doesn't make me sound too crazy, but I feel as if there are different characters in a person's mind. They are kind of like voices/perspectives, that come into being and then sort of fuse out when you analyze them. One perspective is usually a childish one, that wants things now and experiences frustration. The other is a teacher/disciplinarian that answers with logic and restriction. You take the role of each in the argument - you're one side and then the other.

Do this for a while and you realize that you're in the center, quietly observing. And once you realize you're doing that the other two suddenly vanish, or you realize they are now like a movie and not part of you. It's weird.

If you suddenly have to do something outward facing, like talk to someone or actively participate in something, it all goes away too and you're just one person again.

Voyages of introspection...
