90% of the population does not understand

All my life I felt mildy depressed, empty, I felt a strangeness regarding living and being alive. I have friends and a boyfriend, but I can neves quite connect with them or my family. I am 32 and have been in therapy (psychological therapy) for 16 years with no success. On the outside I lead a normal life. Always felt guilty for living, began a family history search to look for the roots of unhappiness (I thought that my ancestors sacrificed and led miserable lives for me to have a bright future). My mother says I did not have a twin (and there are no twins in the family), but somehow I have always fantasized about it and felt a fascination for twins. I used to feel that being born alone is boring, that having a twin is special. But as I don't have proof, I am not sure.

Perhaps the most important message of The Womb Twin project is that there is specialist help and support available for womb twin survivors. If you are a womb twin survivor, you do not have to cope with this all on your own.

There are :

• Formal meetings where you can learn more and hear the stories of other womb twin survivors. [more here]
   
• Informal gatherings where you can just relax in a group where no-one thinks you are crazy! [more here]
   
• Workshops with Althea to help you to understand yourself better and move along your healing path. [more here]
   
• An online forum to swap stories and discuss important issues [join here]
   
• An organisation with members for you to join, to feel among friends. [details here]
  
   

I also provide personal support for individuals [See my personal web site for details.]
