It is quite shocking to realize that we're not the owners of the thoughts inside our mind, even the thoughts beginning with "I" ("I'm stupid", "Oh shit I will be late!", "I hate this fucking job!", etc).

We identify with these thoughts, believing we are their originator, but it's the biggest illusion of all.

Are you referring to bicameralism?
