I know what you mean. I think I struggle with some of these concepts because I just can't comprehend what it's like for a mentally healthy person. I can't comprehend what a continuous sense of self would feel like. It's not something I've ever had.
I find it so hard to see what parts of me are regarded as "normal" or not. When that's all you've never known, you assume it is the norm for everyone. You don't even question it, it's just part of you.
