Hey guys. I do have special interests like a lot of you here. It feels as if it's not really me but another person (my imaginary twin lol) who has a special interest, not me. I know that's not really so.

(I ) have a fair bit if knowledge and interest in certain things but its kind of like im not actively taking part in learning about my interest, but its something i do in the background while living a normal mundane life. I dont pay lots of attention on purpose but still pick much knowledge lol.I wonder if anyone else feels like that too.

No, in my special interests or inside-head world I feel real-existing.
Inside-head world is pretty detached from outside-head world.
In assessment they called it : highly idiosyncratic perception.
