Physical disparity.

To give background. I'm having trouble sleeping recently (nothing to do with being multiple, I just am) an I'm online to a friend who knows about me...

Annabelle says:
Oh, odd moment.

Annabelle says:
That's an odd sensation.

************** says:
What is?

Annabelle says:
Disparity between the perception of my body and what it is.

************** says:
You were seeing curvy brunette you?

Annabelle says:
Sometimes I look down expecting to see one set of clothes, but I'm wearing boy clothes (not even clothes I own, but I know what they look and feel like) but as soon as I look at something else I feel the clothes back. Of course I know that they are not there, but it's kind of ... I don't know.

Annabelle says:
Just got the same thing with my body.

Annabelle says:
I'm sitting here with my legs wrapped around the legs of the chair and that means that my knees are apart, and... not to be to indelicate but *blush* well... you know. Not just that. My top is half-open (a flease) and I swaer that if I look down I'll be bra-less and D-cup, yet I know I'm not.

Annabelle says:
Same with my hair. I know it's not long and pulled into a pony-tail, but it feels as if I could reach up & touch it.

Annabelle says:
It's odd.

You know... there are some things that multiples do that singlets just don't do. They can actually LEAVE the front. LEAVE it, not just picture other things and get the IMPRESSION that they're leaving it.

Also, I never feel like I am wearing something different than I really am. It seems like multiples have two existences -- one in the body and one out of it. And they percieve both as physical reality, so one can carry over to the other. But that has never, ever happened to me. Actually, I'd be scared if that ever happened to me.

All the time.

Also have been doing sort of visual hallucination stuff (can't remember how to describe it better) with a friend and if we're doing it at nighttime, and it's usually daytime in the landscape we're projecting, it gets really weird to look around and go, oh it's dark.

Any and all of we frontrunners do that all the time. I think it's fairly common.

There was one time when we (Annabelle and I) were cuddling in bed and Ash popped up suddenly - your mum was calling for him from the other room, I think. He did the funny *blink-blink* he does when there is a sudden switch back to him. And then he pulled off the blankets "to check that he wasn't wearing a plaid skirt and Mary Janes."

Not helpful, I know, but interesting that you were projecting so loudly that Ash picked up on it as "real" - or at least "real enough that I ought to check before going out into the hallway."

R. is a dragon. When she's frontng, she knows that she should have a tail and will feel it regardless of the fact that the body happens to lack one. Interestingly, while she's equally certain she has a muzzle, not being able to see it when she glances down makes it more difficult for her to feel.
