Thoughts are coming from two separate voices?
I had a question about how my thoughts are appearing, and I figure this is the best place to ask about it (other psychology subreddits had more rules about questions and I don’t want to risk a ban). I’ve been pondering a lot recently about how people think, and after doing some research I’ve come to realize that I may not think the same way that most people do. The main thing that bothered me about this is that my mind seems to split its thoughts between two different ”voices“. They both sound different. The first one is responsible for logical thinking, it acts as a conscience, it‘s very anxious, and not very confident. The second one is sort of mischievous and doesn’t give much thought to other people. It is usually the one that supplies my mind with a flow of random images and words. Sometimes it can be sort of persuaded to stop “spamming my mind”, as I like to put it. Is this normal? The closest explanation I’ve come up for this is the ”voices” being the left (first voice) and right (probably the second voice) sides of the brain. But isn’t the right side of the brain non-verbal? Is it only physically non-verbal, or mentally as well? I hope this all somewhat makes sense, I really don’t know an awful lot about psychology so apologies if I didn’t explain things perfectly well.
