Please help me. this is serious. I think that I have something mentally wrong with me, like I am mentally ill. Or maybe i have demons inside of me ,I don't know. I have different personalities inside of me. not like different people, but just personalities. They come out of me even wehn I am not trying to make them come out. Like at times I am a raging bull, fighting everone. and then, for no reason I am as sweet as pie and so ashamed of my other personality. And then, I am confused and depressed and it';s like, wghere did this person come from? At times I am so smart I amaze myself, and other times, dumb as hell. Sometimes I embrace God, and other times turn away. My personalities are making a mess of my life, because I don't know who I am!!! I want to know who I really am. I think i am mentally ill! Please help!!!

Seek help at a center for this. You may have to stay a few days for a proper evaluation, but it will be diagnosed and you can get the help you need.

This sounds more like borderline personality disorder than multiple personality disorder (now called dissociative identity disorder) because you don't detail any memory loss and you are very aware of the change in behavior. People with DID may be aware the other personality exists but are not usually aware of the actions of that personality. Either way, you need psychological assistance. This can only be attained through a licensed professional. However, here is some further information -
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is defined within psychiatry and related psychological fields as a disorder characterized primarily by emotional dysregulation, extreme "black and white" thinking (believing that something is one of only two possible things, and ignoring any possible "in-betweens"), and turbulent relationships. It can also be described by mental health professionals as a serious mental illness characterized by pervasive instability in mood, interpersonal relationships, self-image, identity, and behavior, and a disturbance in the individual's sense of self.
The disturbances suffered by those with borderline personality disorder have a wide-ranging and pervasive negative impact on many or all of the psychosocial facets of life -- including employability and relationships in work, home and social settings. Furthermore, BPDs may be marginalized by society due to their moods and behaviors.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borderline_Personality_Disorder
Dissociative identity disorder (DID) is a diagnosis described in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition, Revised, as the existence in an individual of two or more distinct identities or personalities, each with its own pattern of perceiving and interacting with the environment. At least two of these personalities are considered to routinely take control of the individual's behavior, and there is also some associated memory loss, which is beyond normal forgetfulness. This memory loss is often referred to as "losing time". These symptoms must occur independently of substance abuse, or a general medical condition.
Dissociative identity disorder was initially named multiple personality disorder (MPD), and, as referenced above, that name remains in the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociative_identity_disorder

Honestly- the very best way to get an answer for this question is to go to either your family physician or a therapist. They are the best to help.
It is very possible to have multiple personalities and not know. However, don't freak out just yet. You may NOT have multiple personalities. There are many illnesses out there that sort of mimik each other- the best way to figure it all out is seek professional help.

You should go to the dr and they will refer you to a psychiatrist. You need one. Don't hesitate. If you dont have coverage go to a city hospital but don't ignore your cry for help. Did you see the movie Sybil, or Amityville Horror? Based on mental illness and demons.

Depending on your age it could be hormonal...but It sound like multiple personality disorder and most people don't know they have it---they just think they are moody---if you are in school go to your counselor, and if you are not just ask your doctor who he would recommend

Go and talk to your doctor, it sounds like you are manic depressive. It is a serious condition and you can live a normal life with help.

no, they normally have different names. Sounds like bi-polar. Bi-polar normally is genetic. Not demons, that's extremely rare and you would have no memory of it
