I'm not a twin but I have two sisters who are twins. after watching them grow up I am very glad I'm not a twin. It's definately true what some people have said about how everyone sees twins as being one person, for example my sisters are rarely refered to by their separate names, they are just called "the twins", even by everyone in my family. My sisters have always been very close and to be honest I see that as very damaging (or at least it has been for them). One of them became anorexic for her own personal reasons and the other just "copied" her and now they have both been sectioned!! Also they are 18 and have always shared a bed...which I just find wierd.
So yeah, I am glad I'm not a twin!

I have always wanted a twin sister... or just a sister in general really.
3 brothers isn't fun : /





Tonight I'm alive just to say I love you to death.

Irene I think what she was saying was that in her class they learned that if one twin has a mental health problem the other one has a higher probability to have an issue, and I think she was asking if anyone here had experienced that with their twin.



Well it breaks my heart to see you this way,
The beauty in life, where's it gone?
And somebody told me you were doing okay,
Somehow I guess they were wrong.

Chameleongirl, I'm not an identical twin but I'll answer your question anyway...I've always wondered the same thing. My brother and I both of highly anxious personalities. He's never been diagnosed with anything but I think he has some kind of anxiety aswell. Though I'm not sure if it's because we're twins or just from our upringing. That answer was probably quite useless to you.

As the opposite of Miss Em above me, my boytwin has not presented any overt signs of mental illness. And, I have. A lovely study of nature vs nurture we are, as I believe a core underlying this is attention. But that's for another thread :P

Also, a lot of twins are premature (in my experience) and that can also lead to a higher rate of depression.

My sister and I are non-identical which always leads to (are you REALLLLY twins?i dont believe you etc) and we were, all through primary school treated as 1 person. We were referred to as 'the twins' and although I love my twin soooo much,sometimes it is annoying to have the same everything all the time.
Although my sister has never been diagnosed with depression she does see a counsellor every once in a while and has had panic attacks so I think its more down to the way we were brought up and that my mother can be quite depressed at times.




There are times to stay put, and what you want will come to you.
But there are times to go out into the world and find such a thing for yourself.

I was born very prematurely, at something like 27-ish weeks. My sister has her problems, as mentioned, but she's certainly not depressed or anything mentally ill based - you'd have thought, out of the two of us, she'd be the one to present any unhappiness towards herself and all that. But no. Ho hum.



I see it in your eyes
You'll be alright
