I used to believe that to get a name, you had to go through a machine as a baby that would suck up your brain and analyse your DNA and give you a name that fits your personality. I thought this until when I was 14.

After watching parent trap, I was convinced that I had a secret twin living with my father (my parents split up when I was a baby and my father lived in a different country). For about two years after that I presumed that everytime i was with my dad my secret twin must be taking my place.

When I was 8 or 9 I thought that the world consisted of only 7 people and the role played for me and changed the appearance of my teachers, classmates, family and so on to make things happen in my life. When I was alone or asleep, they were in their base to find out what would happen to me next.

I remember at a very young age, realising that I was significantly more intelligent than children of my own age, and far more empathic, meaning I would never truly fit in as we weren't on the same level.

When I was young, I used to think the Santa Claus existed. With my brother, we put flour on the floor. The next day, we checked and there were footprints in the flour.
One day, when I was 13, my father told me it was him
who made the footprints with his boots.
I was frustrated but it was funny.

I used to believe I was Michael Jackson (keep in mind I was a little white girl and he was a little black boy). I couldn't understand why people laughed when I told them "my name's not Ashley, it's Michael Jackson"!

When I was little I used to believe that my life was a TV show. I honestly thought that SOMEHOW there were cameras that watched my everymove.

I also believed that TV shows were other people's lives that I was allowed to watch. I just hoped MY show was as funny as some of theirs... and I also always wanted to go live with the Star Trek people b/c their life was cool! haha

From the age of 3 i convinced my parents that i wasn't a human, i was a karrijack from the planet hotpoint (i got that name off our stove!) and humans hadn't found that planet yet so they didn't know about karrijacks. They lived in the "claus" (under the sheets) and had multicolor babies and talked in very high pitched voices and they carry things, like a postal service! Me and my mum were talking about this the other day and she admitted that for a while she actually believed me because i was so convincing and because she hadn't actually seen me been born ( i was born through cesarian)

When I was young I had a crescent shaped scar on my index finger and I believed it was proof that I was really a princess.

when i was little, i did believe that the land of Oz really existed. It took some people to brainwash me, but for the longest time, i thought i was dorothy, because my room is all wizard of oz. and i had a wizard of oz themed birthday party and my mom hired someone to be Glina. When she had to leave I ran up and begged her to take me with her b/c the people of Oz needed me there. I also thought that if i was in a twister, i would end up in oz. but eventually i kind of grew out of that phase. but still question the fact b/c when i typed in Map of Oz in Google images, Australia appeared. Now I am a teen and still think that oz really exists!

I used to believe that everyone else could read my mind. I thought everyone could hear everything I was thinking. I spent about half my childhood looking at people thinking the words GET THE KDFJFLKSDJ OUT OF MY HEAD!!

When I was about 5, I had the thought that when people left the room and closed the door, they disappeared. I became afraid I was the only real person alive, and everyone else was just part of a test to see how I responded. Took me quite a while to become convinced that everyone else was just like me.

In elementary school, my friends and I had this weird relationship with the monkey bars. There were about 10 bars going up really high but we could reach the first one in first grade. So go figure, we assumed that every bar you reach was what grade you should be in. It didn't help that I was the shortest one so that in fourth grade, I could only touch the second bar. My friends were always just barely touching the fifth bar.
