So, as the title said, i have grown up without a family and when it was time to go through puberty, i completely created a new identity, a new ethnic background, changed my middle names, my background, my story etc
The good thing is that i have very good knowledge about this culture because i always had friends from there and some not related family members, i also look like i am from the fake country so it helps
This is not a personality disorder, i am very aware of my true self, but i feel like the lie became somewhat “true” because my life is like this since years and i feel comfortable about it.
AmA !

Do you have any regrets?
And who knows what contributed to that “identity?” A wonderful British friend of mine claimed to have a Spaniard heart, calling his own people “nationalistic bastards.”
What country and ethnicity did you take on as yours?
Why did you do it? What advantages were there and what disadvantages did you avoid?
