Each personality disorder is different. I've heard that having borderline personality disorder sometimes feels like being two people, but I don't have any personal experience with that one.

I have three personality disorders (schizoid, obsessive-compulsive and paranoid). None of them are like being two people. Schizoid personality disorder is to put it simple like being a total loner with little or no emotions. Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder has to do with obsessing about things to the extent that it has a negative effect on one's life. You find yourself constantly checking something (did I lock the door?) or fixing something until it's perfect. Paranoid personality disorder makes one paranoid, but to a less serious extent than Paranoid Disorder.

Depending on how strong the symptoms are, some people can hide their personality disorders. For example few people know about mine, because I function and manage to hide my disorders, while still surely coming across to many people as strange.

No and I might say it is not likely that any one who solutions this query has. Multiple persona order is extra appropriately referred to as 'Dissociative Identity Disorder. It is totally infrequent if in any respect it even exists. There is plenty of doubt with the psychiatric group whether or not this situation exists or if it truthfully an extra situation reminiscent of Borderline persona Disorder. Even despite the fact that DID is incorporated in each the DSM-IV and the ICD, it nonetheless stays a bone of competition.

I'm not sure I understand...But opposing thought do not sound to me as a mental illness or a personality disorder.

I have both disorders and when I am ill I do get "racing thought" were thoughts come fast and furious,I also get mixed up thinking were I am confused a "thought disorder"

I do not have multiple personalities, but I do have a personality disorder that effects my ability to form relations ships.It is a real bummer...that is what it is like.

I am sorry, you are not making yourself clear. There are several personality disorders - however none have anything to do with a word meaning two things. Could you edit your question to help us understand?
