The individual collective mind

Is it possible that we are too attached to this image of a soul. Of a central consciousness that controls all above else. The one self dialog of me. Have we diagnosed multiple personality disorders as an attempt to ward off the possibility that every individual is a group mind? What if, we let go of that fear and let go of the very concept of individualism and collectivism? What do we get?

I have less control of myself during my drugged stupor. Less attention dedicated to the governance of the whole creating more instances of funny behaviors. One interesting behaviors of my body I observed is that it’d start rearranging things or cleaning when I am in some sort of deep conversation with another person. Some adopted children of my optimization effort. I didn’t know it has a mind of its own. If left uncheck, it tends to get stuck on certain mundane task, like trying unsuccessfully to unscrew a screw, or open a bottle and putting the same dish back and fourth.

As I write this, several feelings of fear coursed through my thoughts. Including that of the MPD, maniac or ODD, but they no longer stops me from thinking the thoughts I want to think. I have accepted the fact that it is a human concept and it fails to describes us in totality and instead, hinders our mind from free thoughts.
