Answers:
Do you remember these times when you're violent and loud!? If so, than no, you're not split!. It sounds like sever Bipolar disorder!. If you really don't remember the times when this "Brendan" comes out, chances are you're split!. Either way, talk to a Dr!. and get this under control!. People with DID can do unspeakable things and not remember them, but still take the fall for them!. Also, DID is usually caused by some traumatic experience that causes your mind to produce a new "person" to deal with it!. It's all the minds way of protecting itself!. If you don't remember having any experience that horrific, hypnosis might be an option as well!. Please, see a Dr!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

maybe ask your parents they will know for sureWww@Answer-Health@Com

are you aware of the times when you are angry!? most people with split personalities will have blackout periods during some times when the "other" personalities come out, you can "wake up" and be unaware of what you've been doing!. or they may even hear voices!.

if you haven't experienced blackout, you may have bipolar disorder or another mood disorder causing you to have extreme mood swings!. a professional can diagnose you for sure and get you the proper help you need!. best wishesWww@Answer-Health@Com

It sounds like you might have some issues to work through as to why you shift your affect/behavior like that!. No one here can say why that is, but seeing a counselor would help you figure it out!.

Ppl with split personalities loose time!. The blank out completely when their alter egos take over!. That does not sound like what is going on with you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you may be bi-polar if you habe extreme high and lows in a short amount of time it can be bi-polarWww@Answer-Health@Com

I'm guessing NO because there is no such disease as a "split personality!." That term is from the dark ages days of early psychiatry and was applied to schizophrenia but it has been abandoned!. Schizophrenia is also not multiple personalities: that disorder, now known as Dissociative Identity Disorder, is a very rare condition in no way related to schizophrenia!. Diagnosis of a mental condition by non-professionals is dangerous and usually wrong!. It is usually merely a way of name calling, applying a "dirty word" to an individual because of something you don't like about him/her, like your temper tantrums!.

Your problem, if any, other than bad behavior, may just be "mood swings" which you could look up in a Yahoo! web search!.

Good luck in overcoming you uncontrolled behavior, good mental health, peace and Love!Www@Answer-Health@Com
