I thought the idea was to integrate, not splinter your consciousness.

Why would you want to make yourself more confused?

There is only one you; pretending otherwise, while perfectly possible, can't possibly lead anywhere worth going.

I find these trends among people who are too young to know better deeply troubling.

Who decides what the idea is? What about the post invokes confusion? You come off as extremely dismissive of what doesn't fit your preconceived notions.

Multiple personalities in the same body? Being chased by imaginary dragons and lions for the rest of your life?

Fuck yeah, I'm being dismissive.

To be fair, my ex got rid of his after several months of ignoring it and I don't feel that mine 'chases me' or is distressful at all these days.
