Hey, I am new to EVERYTHING here and I am trying to learn more about all of this and I still haven’t completely understood what a head mate actually is! Could you please explain it to me?

‘Headmates’ are what happens when a single brain/body houses more than one person. Each person or headmate has their own complete identity: including emotions, motivations, thoughts, opinions and memories, separate from anyone else’s, despite using the same brain/body.

Often headmates are aware of one another. If you experience a ‘voice’ in the back of your mind, commenting on things you do, expressing opinions that are not your own, etc etc, you may have a headmate. Sometimes however headmates are not aware of one another, and you may instead experience blackouts or lost time.
