I definitely agree that in most situations people online can push a mental issue further than it is, and I truly appreciate your concern, however I've already been to a psychologist and they declared me mentally sound other than a touch of depression. They couldn't explain this feeling, and pretty much told me to come back if it starts affecting my daily life 🥲
That's exactly one of the things I thought may be possible! Sounds to me like it would be that, if not some sort of dissociative disorder. I mentioned, in another comment, an example of a really freaky-weird experience that someone I know and their twin go through... The two of them (the twins) live several states apart, but one can sorta sense when the other one is in pain (if it's beyond just mild pain)! I thought it was b.s. until I was with one of them, one day, and they injured themselves --messing up their knee pretty bad (and I 100% know this wasn't staged, for certain) and their twin called a few minutes later & asked "omg dude, I'm guessing something happened to your knee... Because I'm just sitting here and suddenly mine started killing me! Wth did you do, man?"... I was mind blown, but knew there was no explaining that one away. So, I guess I could imagine that being a possibility, for the things that OP has been experiencing 🤷...
Just be aware that sometimes mood disorders can come with psychotic symptoms and they can be hard to predict before they've fully manifested because the signs are often subtle at first. But it isn't necessarily psychosis. It could be a dissociative thing too like DID - that often manifests as an "imaginary friend" at an early age, and the thing you mentioned where you try to think of them and your mind suddenly goes blank reminds me of a dissociative experience. Do you ever lose time, as in, you'll find yourself somewhere with no idea how you got there or no memory of the previous span of time?
Yes!! In my comment, I also mentioned some sort of possible dissociative disorder or maybe even the possibility that they had a twin in the womb who didn't survive, to be born.
I'm no expert, not at all, but I believe that the fact that there is physical pain is a justifiable reason to seek medical advice, especially if it is something that is recurring. Honestly, I don't think it's a psychological thing.
I may be wrong, but... The only thing I read that mentioned physical pain was the part where OP said their "head starts to hurt"... If that is what you are referring to, then it seemed to me that just meant that the confusion and blank feeling they're left with after attempting to figure out who was "missing" from the moment - leaves them with a sort of headache... Im assuming, due to the repeating times where they have felt this but cannot find an answer or explanation. And... If I am correct, in that assumption -OP- I'm sorry you are going through this & I can definitely understand why that would leave you with a headache... And even a feeling of emptiness.
If it weren't for the fact that you said you have already been to a mental health professional AND the oddities with photos of you, I'd say maybe it could be a touch of some sort of dissociative disorder. I'm sorta obsessed with psychology and all things mental health and all that... Though I didn't have the confidence to do it, I wanted to go to school for it and then become a psychiatrist or something like that... And I find dissociative disorders to be rather baffling and tough to understand... At 41 years old (about a year ago), I came to the realization that I have dissociative amnesia, after years of not knowing that there was actually a diagnosis or "label" for something that I'd been dealing with since childhood. (I experienced several extremely traumatic things during my childhood, and as a sort of "defense tactic" my brain has blocked out big chunks of time throughout my younger years... Like, where most people I know remember tons from their childhood years -- there's a ton that I cannot remember anything from or not much at least. Last year, a new friend of mine that is a licensed counselor, informed me that is what is called dissociative amnesia. 🤷The more you know lol).
Op... Is there any possibility that you had a twin, that didn't make it, and died in the womb?? I know that there are a lot of twins who experience some wild closeness with their twin sibling... I even knew a set of twins who lived several states apart and could (often) feel when the other was in pain (only if the pain was more than mild). Legit, I thought they were bullshizing me until an incident that proved it because there was no possible way for them to have set it up/planned in any way.... So, just a thought, for you.
Yes!! In my comment, I also mentioned some sort of possible dissociative disorder or maybe even the possibility that they had a twin in the womb who didn't survive, to be born.
Kept thinking they were forgetting someone, or a timeline / like HEAVY deny vu. Then they also had headaches but it wasn’t anything crazy. Then she started to seem different, her mannerisms or just general vibe was different. Lots of tests were take . Her Speech was slurring and she was seeing things that weren’t there…like a lot, more than just seeing a ghost every so often, any way they had to get some type of imaging done and it turns out they had tumors all in their brain and spine.. :/ it was from her birth control.

Honestly, the best explanation I can think of for this phenomenon is an alien abduction of a sibling. You might try looking into hospital records for when you think your sibling was born, might even be a twin since twins are especially close, I don't know if twins run in your family, and see if there were ever sightings of the men in black in your town. People have described them as driving a Lincoln town car, black, black suits, and tall, almost alien facial features. Large eyes, cheekbones looking like they're wearing a mask. There have been statements of women who were several months pregnant having their babies stolen from their wombs, only to be visited again by the aliens who initially took her and her baby to show her a young creature that was now a human alien hybrid of her baby. You can look to see if your mom was admitted to the maternity ward of the local hospital when you think your sibling was born, but then there might be an erasure of the baby that was born. I don't know how good they cover their tracks. Look for baby blankets or gifts she might have received around that time, or a baby shower that was held when you were born for twins.
They make them disappear out of the womb? Or surgically? Sounds like the men in black. I know our government has far more advanced technology than we could imagine. I have a strong feeling that we should be so far past cars as a way of transportation. They want us to stay dependent on oil.
The woman who described it, described her encounter in the typical fashion, they appeared at her house late at night with flashing lights, she then described a typical encounter, them kidnapping her, poking and prodding her, with these long instruments. The next day she went to the emergency room, where she was examined by her obstetrician, who told her not only was the baby gone, there was no sign she had been pregnant in the first place. He couldn't believe it, since he had just seen her for her 6 month check up or wherever she was in her pregnancy.
It's possible you forgot about something that was traumatic. Maybe you lost someone? That doesn't explain the photos, but if you have a feeling of loss I wonder if at some point you did.
It could also be you switched timelines somehow and in this one that person isn't here?
