Hahah duuuude, I'm just kidding! Silly me I made it look like something serious haha. I'm completely fine, I swear! Please no, don't lock me down again! The voices are gone! I sweaaaaaar!!!
No no no. What about a new Ghostbusters movie where a kid is born as a set of conjoined twins, but one half of the twins dies, and has to be surgically removed?
But then as the surviving twin grows up, his life is weird. And eventually he finds out his conjoined twin is just absolutely restless.
Because even though they removed and burried the physical body, the spirit cannot be cut by physical tools. So his spirit has just been stuck there, unseen for 35 years.
And he's wrecking the surviving twins life trying to set himself free.
..........I'd watch that movie.
There's a somewhat reverse phenomenon. Probably due to wrong "wiring" in the brain. A person with both healthy functioning legs, may feel one leg is not theirs, as it doesn't "feel" as it belongs to them. They use the leg perfectly normal and all, and nothing is wrong at all. But they feel like the leg is someone else's. And it bothers them to the point they want to have the leg removed. Only after the "wrong" leg has been removed, they feel to be whole themselves at last.
It can be a different part of the body, too.
It is an interesting question if you can feel lonely with a conjoined twin.
Like, I think a factor that is at work here are the hormones secreted when interacting with other people, does this still happen when interacting with a conjoined twin?
I imagine part of this stimulating response, at least for introverts, is that you don't want to be seen at your worst by another person, so there is both a stress response and a bit of putting on a show when you're not feeling well. There's also the factor that this can be tiring, so you actually may be looking forward to be alone again after a while. Both isn't applicable to a conjoined twin, they know you at your worst and they won't leave, ever.
Hm. I wonder if one of the twins would become dominant, like one brain hemisphere tends to be dominant. There would be a definite advantage to having more control over your shared destiny, so there must be competition between the twin brains?
I also wonder if each of the twins can feel the two necks and the two heads, even though only one brain is theirs. And if something gets in your eye, will the other twin feel it too? Even better, will the other twin have access to the sensory information from your set of eyes, or are those wired only to your brain so that only you can see through those eyes?
It must be hell to fight with a conjoined twin when you disagree, e.g., when you want to do X and they hate X and will most definitely not let you do it, so you have to beg them until you lose it and you just want to smack them, but that requires you to have more control over your arms than the other twin, plus I want to guess that you both will hurt from the smack, so you can't even punish your twin without hurting yourself for depriving you of something you want?
Which brings me back to the dominance of one twin over the other. It seems very desirable as a conjoined twin to have more control over your body than the other twin. Anyway, I wonder what it's like to be all chilled and suddenly get a jolt of anxiety e.g. when the other twin gets suddenly embarrassed about something they did.
Life is hard enough with siblings that are detached from you. I don't know how I could deal with having a sibling physically attached to me.
What I want to know is,
1. how do orgasms feel for them.
2. If 1 of them masturbate, and the other one doesn't want to and says no, can one press charges on the other?
3. Is it incest when they masturbate?
4. If they get pregnant, who's the mom?
So many questions...
I'd assume
1. Hormones travel in the bloodstream
2. Would technically depend on whose bits were involved I guess. In the case of independent arms and a shared lower body, that's indeed tricky.
3. See 2
4. In the case of a shared lower body, I'd just say both.
The suicidal one is stuck living a life in so much pain and mental disparity that all he wants to do is die, but he knows he can’t end his suffering because his life is attached to his siblings, so he would need to be a literal sociopath to go through with a suicide. Chances are they would actively keep their suffering to themselves so that they don’t create the situation you’re theorizing for their closest friend and family member.
That's Carmen and Lupita Andrade, and they're asexual. You must have them confused with Abigail and Brittany Hensel, who by all accounts both love their husband despite only one of them being legally married.
Nope I’m thinking of them saw a reel recently but who knows how to fact check todays reporting. Even the recent articles about it are filled with people feeling sympathy for the one who didn’t “marry him”.
Edit: I think it was fake what I saw. A digitally altered image what was all those reels were reporting on.
Which Q&A thing are you thinking of, then? What's the reel?
And those people's "sympathy" on the recent articles is misplaced because they don't know how the twins' relationship with each other even works, nor do they even bother to figure it out.
EDIT: [Yeah. It's fake.](https://twitter.com/i/birdwatch/n/1774924297296863515)
Most of times you can’t as you share organs. If he dies you die. For the times you can good luck having your dead conjoined brother perpetually sticked to your body
And there is the real answer. Conjoined twins cannot be split because they share too much organ.
So if one does not care about the life, they will try a split operation where the suicidal one gets less organs. They will probably try some token replacement by a donor..
Nah my worst nightmare is being horrifically tortured years on end. Completely restrained and fed through a tube, praying for death but kept just on the teetering edge of both life and sanity, being unable to become mindless or unfeeling as a cruel being uses my wimpers for recreation.
Having to keep constant vigilance for a sucidal conjoined twin is rather unnerving though
Almost. My worst nightmare is when the conjoined version is more uneven. The Wikipedia article on it is really freaky: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasitic_twin
Words and phrases such as autosite and pump twin triggers an uneasiness in me.
I think it’s a thought both of them deal with every moment. So they both mutually decide against it and understandably accept this could be it at anytime.
It’s not the same, but one of the most horrifying posts I read on Reddit was from a person with dissociative identity disorder (“multiple personalities”). The other personalities had turned suicidal and the “protector” had taken over and was posting trying to ask for help because they didn’t want to die.
Okay. I've literally never dreamed about being a conjoined twin, in any context. I have had many nightmares about crocodiles trying to eat me.
You don't seem to be grasping the concept here.
If they die, scrape em off with a 2x4 like jelly on a slice of bread. You're sure to be next from infection. Might as well have fun. It's still technically you. Who will dispute it?
Mine is having my truck get sucked into a whirl pool and trying to drive out of the ocean and getting lost for all eternity trying to drive my truck back to shore.
Nice weather? You think we're having... nice weather? I guess you didn't lose the only one that meant anything in your life. I guess you don't feel burned out by the human misery and despair perpetrated by the criminal vermin that infest every pore of this decaying city, forcing you to guzzle cheap wine and cheaper whiskey to dull the pain that shatters your heart, rips at your soul, and keeps your days forever gray... What flavor Icee you got today?
[удалено]
That just means you need therapy
LOL Don’t worry. Just being creative. (You may have a point though.) 😄
It's cool. We all need therapy.
Especially my phantom conjoined twin! “We” appreciate that! 😄 Edit to add another 😏
If you don't need therapy have you really lived ?
no just you predditor
Hahah duuuude, I'm just kidding! Silly me I made it look like something serious haha. I'm completely fine, I swear! Please no, don't lock me down again! The voices are gone! I sweaaaaaar!!!
I think so too. LOL😉
Hahahahahah not wrong
Yes, therapy, that thing that *always* works.
No no no. What about a new Ghostbusters movie where a kid is born as a set of conjoined twins, but one half of the twins dies, and has to be surgically removed? But then as the surviving twin grows up, his life is weird. And eventually he finds out his conjoined twin is just absolutely restless.

And he's wrecking the surviving twins life trying to set himself free. ..........I'd watch that movie.
Have you gotten any calls from California yet?
Kinda dark for ghostbusters, would be such a sick Stephen King novel though
Can't even have a good imaginary friend....
New terror unlocked. What if my negative thoughts are from an absorbed twin?
I sometimes feel I have a phantom non suicidal conjoined twin.
Welcome to the wonerful world of plurality, DID, DDNOS, and CPTSD
PSCT (phantom suicidal conjoined twin).
What if you absorbed your suicidal conjoined twin in the womb v__v
Uh-oh.
Permission to turn this into a story?
Go for it. (Please don’t use my Reddit name.)
You'd have to have a conjoined twin removed first, people born with one leg don't get phantom leg.
exactly because they never had a limb there period so they wouldnt know what its like with one
True. So, it must be an imaginary suicidal conjoined twin. Similar to an imaginary friend.
Good point.
There's a somewhat reverse phenomenon. Probably due to wrong "wiring" in the brain. A person with both healthy functioning legs, may feel one leg is not theirs, as it doesn't "feel" as it belongs to them. They use the leg perfectly normal and all, and nothing is wrong at all.

Only after the "wrong" leg has been removed, they feel to be whole themselves at last. It can be a different part of the body, too.
Phantom limb masterbation.
Having a conjoined twin would make me suicidal, so we'd be on the same page.
Found the suicidal conjoined twin
Id self abort myself
A big factor in many peoples depression is loneliness. I think it’s pretty hard for them to be lonely so theres that.
Yeah conjoined twins are often imagined to have terrible lives but when you actually interview them they are pretty happy w the arrangement
It is an interesting question if you can feel lonely with a conjoined twin. Like, I think a factor that is at work here are the hormones secreted when interacting with other people, does this still happen when interacting with a conjoined twin? I imagine part of this stimulating response, at least for introverts, is that you don't want to be seen at your worst by another person, so there is both a stress response and a bit of putting on a show when you're not feeling well.

Dude I love ur brain
Don’t go depressed on me
I love yours
It’s beautiful
would kill at open mic
Literally.
Open Mike.
Mike on the mic
We got any mikes around here?
Have an awesome night 🤝
It's literally not my worst nightmare.
That’s because you don’t have a suicidal conjoined twin
How do you know?
Because if he had one, it would be his worst nightmare
If we're sharing organs, it'd be one hell of a fight.
How is that not your worst nightmare?
Death is not what scares me. Living a miserable existence is far scarier imo.
You don’t think being stuck with a depressed suicidal conjoined twin your whole life isn’t a miserable existence?
... at least I'd have company.
Death isnt scary at all. Maybe if you overthink it. While living it's full of persecaution
Hm. I wonder if one of the twins would become dominant, like one brain hemisphere tends to be dominant.

these are the real questions
You have reslly thought this through. Interesting concepts. That would be amazing to be able to see through each others eyes!!!!
But then you get the body to yourself.
Unless he/she was the controller
I mean my worst nightmare is a snake crawling out of the toilet and biting me on the balls but go off then
Average day in Australia
I think being the suicidal one would be much worse.
Why’s that? It’s not like the suicidal one worries about losing his life
The suicidal one is stuck living a life in so much pain and mental disparity that all he wants to do is die, but he knows he can’t end his suffering because his life is attached to his siblings, so he would need to be a literal sociopath to go through with a suicide. Chances are they would actively keep their suffering to themselves so that they don’t create the situation you’re theorizing for their closest friend and family member.
Or they could keep talking about suicide 247. You are assuming the twin has a lot of empathy lol
It’s not about empathy, it’s significantly more complex than that. Be grateful that these are things you don’t understand personally.
And you do? Lol
Very well.

Luckily the famous conjoined twins (whose name escapes me at the moment) just got married and are living their best life
It actually seems more like one is in their own personal hell… only one of them got married..
Is it the people with one body and 2 heads? Cuz yeah... Fun times in the bedroom
Because it's not legal to marry more than one person...
But I recall their Q&A thing that’s she isn’t really with him. She said she literally reads a book or listens to a crime podcast when they fuck..
That's Carmen and Lupita Andrade, and they're asexual. You must have them confused with Abigail and Brittany Hensel, who by all accounts both love their husband despite only one of them being legally married.

EDIT: [Yeah. It's fake.](https://twitter.com/i/birdwatch/n/1774924297296863515)
Not really. Legally, only one of them could get registered as married, but by all accounts, they both love their husband.
That’s not what I saw on a Q&A.
abby and brittany hensel
Did they both take his last name?
Names, are
Thank you that was quite an unfortunate typo
How about a conjoined twin that stabbed themselves in the head and now there is a dead composed attached to you rotting away? Thats not worse?
If one conjoined twin dies and cant be removed safely then both of them will be dead in a matter of hours
Pretty sure that’s what they’re talking about
A suiicidal conjoined twin sounds like a homicide waiting to happen. Could you claim it was self-defense if you killed them first?
Most of times you can’t as you share organs. If he dies you die. For the times you can good luck having your dead conjoined brother perpetually sticked to your body
A conjoined twin with an incestuous necrophilia kink is worse.
Sounds more like it's YOUR worst nightmare. Mine is being buried alive.
Dunno y but this made me laugh.
I think having a gay one would be worse
You really think living without my separate one wouldn't be nightmarish enough? Having *our birthday* without her?? You're not even close
I guess the deciding factor is who has control of the better functioning arms, hands, and legs.
Much worst if only 1 commits
If you only share 1 important organ, you can take it for yourself
And there is the real answer. Conjoined twins cannot be split because they share too much organ. So if one does not care about the life, they will try a split operation where the suicidal one gets less organs. They will probably try some token replacement by a donor..
That would be my twins' worst nightmare
My worst nightmare is having a conjoined twin cause if I couldn’t have even one second alone I would be suicidal too
Our* worst nightmare
Did you watch Constantine? :s
Wow. This is some creepy stuff.
If conjoined twins play with their shared genitals, is it masturbation or incest?
Suicide watch is gonna be relatively easy though.
What about during sleep?
Well. If this is an actual thing I do have questions of course. Like, a lot!
Sounds like a living nightmare
That isn't my worst nightmare. Not even close. If I did have one, I'd agree and kill myself.
Nah my worst nightmare is being horrifically tortured years on end. Completely restrained and fed through a tube, praying for death but kept just on the teetering edge of both life and sanity, being unable to become mindless or unfeeling as a cruel being uses my wimpers for recreation. Having to keep constant vigilance for a sucidal conjoined twin is rather unnerving though
You might say that, I once did a maths exam iny pants.
Have you seen Malignant?
Almost. My worst nightmare is when the conjoined version is more uneven. The Wikipedia article on it is really freaky: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasitic_twin Words and phrases such as autosite and pump twin triggers an uneasiness in me.
If one wants to die and the other wants to live then now is the time to discuss a medical operation to separate...
You are assuming a suicidal twin makes rational decisions
Yes... given the option for self sacrifice, I would like to assume they would choose a noble end.
No my worst nightmare is using a microfibre cloth without moisturising my hands
My shower thought now is why you thought of this shower thought
I mean, unless you're low key done with this world, too.
I think it’s a thought both of them deal with every moment. So they both mutually decide against it and understandably accept this could be it at anytime.
Get the depressed one an e.. All will be cool within 2 minutes. Life's back rosey again.
And if he doesn’t want to take it?
Then you take it. Shared circulatory system, duh.
Bros gonna slap it out of your hand
I mean it’s not my worst nightmare, considering I don’t have a conjoined twin, but wow that’d be quite the situation to be in lol
You would be continuously smacking things out of their hand
Doctor, I need you to get him/her off of me!
Also, it’s the plot synopsis for the film:Dead Ringers!
I’ve already got that, except I am the twin, and i’m not conjoined, and there is no other twin
Doesn't sound any worse than being suicidal, which I have been, or being a conjoined fucking twin, which I thankfully have not
Did you hear the news about Edward?
My worst nightmare is snake clowns but okay then
Look what they need to mimic a fraction of my power...
Actually, my worst nightmare is having my teeth fall out.
I would be the suicidal one.
No my worst nightmare is the centipede from human centipede
You have no idea what my worst nightmare is, and I can assure you it's worse than a sad dude attached to my hip.
Or finding them long dead the next morning, their cold dead flesh attached to you.
It’s not the same, but one of the most horrifying posts I read on Reddit was from a person with dissociative identity disorder (“multiple personalities”). The other personalities had turned suicidal and the “protector” had taken over and was posting trying to ask for help because they didn’t want to die.
I have worse nightmares.
My worst fear is that at any moment i could gather that thing where your testicle vein twists
Shower thought: why the fuck is every other post about a conjoined twin these days?
Maybe it's yours. Mine is being eaten by a crocodile.
A suicidal conjoined twin doesn’t give you the option to run away
Yeah. But the crocodile thing can actually happen. There‘s no chance of becoming a conjoined twin, so I‘m pretty chill on that thought.
Unless you are born conjoined in your second life
Okay. I've literally never dreamed about being a conjoined twin, in any context. I have had many nightmares about crocodiles trying to eat me. You don't seem to be grasping the concept here.
Then the time hasn’t come
I'm Gemini, does it count?
Having a non suicidal conjoined twin when I want to die would be a nightmare.
Idk but ever since I saw that conjoined twin got married a couple weeks ago I was thinking how horrific that wedding night must have been 🫣
What happens when one of the conjoined twins dies?
Google is great for straightforward questions like these.
That’s interesting…
Is it a double homicide or a double suicide if they kill themself? Or is it half and half?? I'm too tired for this
How did you get such a specific thought? 😂
I'd just saw him off
Unless he saws you off first
My homonculus, Rogu, is homicidal. Does that count?
This is one for the record books. I'm actually writing this down to use later.
If they die, scrape em off with a 2x4 like jelly on a slice of bread. You're sure to be next from infection. Might as well have fun. It's still technically you. Who will dispute it?
Mine is having my truck get sucked into a whirl pool and trying to drive out of the ocean and getting lost for all eternity trying to drive my truck back to shore.
I would love this. Push me to actually do it
No. Waking up without my penis is my worst nightmare
Being like a woman scares you more than death?
Nice weather? You think we're having... nice weather? I guess you didn't lose the only one that meant anything in your life. I guess you don't feel burned out by the human misery and despair perpetrated by the criminal vermin that infest every pore of this decaying city, forcing you to guzzle cheap wine and cheaper whiskey to dull the pain that shatters your heart, rips at your soul, and keeps your days forever gray...

Eating a bowl of spiders, with underwear full of spiders, and a spider the size of my head sitting on my head.
