How is it possible to know myself less when I'm alone? Shouldn't it work the other way around? I sure hope this feeling goes away and I can remember who I am.
You'll find it. We rely so heavily on who we are based on those around us. It gets really hard when you're alone. I find that it helps to GO OUTSIDE and let the sun shine on you. The sun has amazing healing powers...which you've probably heard before, but it's true.
Spend a little extra time on yourself: take longer baths/showers, test different parts of your bed...don't just sleep on one side, that sort of thing. But make sure you don't spend entire days by yourself. Then you end up with crazy live journal posts...aching to reach out to someone. Just connect with someone - even if it's only the woman at the checkout at the grocery...or an old friend still living in Baton Rouge. ;)
It sucks to be a "crazy" artist, but at the same time, what a gift we're given. I mean, I am so happy that I get to do what I do. Isn't it cool? We get to wear costumes and be other people? And, as someone told my roommate Shauna recently, it's hot to be an actor. It's totally sexy. For someone to say they are with an actor is h-o-t.
So, anyway, cheer up charlie. Hope to see you again one of these days, Ms. Crawford.
