My Imaginary friends??

Question

Sorry, I just wanted a little information about Imaginary friends.

I was wondering, do people willingly make up Imaginary friends? As in, one day they go 'Hey, I want an Imaginary friend' and *boom* they have one? Or is it unwilling and it just happens without the person in question meaning it to?

And how common is Imaginary friends among teenagers and adults?

Sorry, one more question. What does it feel like to have an Imaginary friend? If you had or have one, what's it like communicating with them?

I appreciate anything you can tell me about them, thank you.

Drugs  

Answer 2

I was just reading a number of books, one by Doris Stokes and another by T. Lobsang Rampa and both of them say that imaginary friends are spirit people who are sensitive to the needs of a child that does not have a lot of friends or who spend a lot of time alone.  

When a child is younger they may be able to see their imaginary friend and talk with them, but as they grow older they no longer believe in them and they go away because they are no longer needed.

Answer 3

I dont know I dont have any imaginary friends. I'd say if you do maybe you need to seek mental help? or if you talk to yourself and you can't answer yourself the answer that you want, then your in trouble best of luck I guess?lol
