A member asked:
Can living "two lives" cause a person to develop personality disorders or to lose themselves?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes : Living two lives is living in a world filled with deceit and lies. It takes its toll and causes identity diffusion where you have to act one way in one setting and another in the other setting. While i believe it is usually a situation caused by personality issues, i think it only serves to magnify those issues instead if being a solution to the underlying personality issues. Therapy can help.
