If you could experience a month in the life of any person, living or dead, fully embodying their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without any awareness of your own identity, how do you think it would influence you, nya?

Would your ideals and morals change?

Would this affect your current state of thought process and how you perceive everything?

Would you, as a person, change?

Identity Crisis.

Would your ideals and morals change?
Self-isolation, and self conflict.

Gone Bonkers!

I'm myself, just self improve and fix my mistakes. There is no words of "change" in my dictionary.

I change a little every moment. Even sleep, or lack thereof, produces small changes, even if it is just 0.00000000000000000001% of my personality that changes. Obviously, an experience such as this would change me as well. It's the amount of change that is in question.

Not much. After all, in that scenario I had no agency to influence. I'd likely analyze and try to remember certain details, i.e. treasure hiding locations

Hmm, might interact with my plurality weirdly, form a new sense of self, so my personality might literally change, just, temporarily.
It's unlikely to change my fundamental morals or beliefs, but the perspective might be helpful for me to learn about how other people work and adjust my behavior to be more understanding. Maybe I'd even gain a new hobby or skill.

Would also probably fuck me right up emotionally for a bit, possibly longer, and I'd have to recalibrate my sense of self.

Living as myself already changes my personality a lot. I can't even recognize who I was last month. If I spent some time as someone else, the effect might be far more dramatic.

I'm probably going to be one of the few people to say no to that, because I've had years to condense core ideals. It would be functionally impossible for me to change who I am at my core, because I condensed all of that when I went through a good 3-5 years of brain fog and memory loss while trying to rebuild it with a few poorly scribbled notes and autism backing me up to try and pretend to show everything is normal. Any 'new' memories would be just the same as if I can recall any of the memories I lost, they are just information, regardless of content.

Multiple experiences changing a whole list of contexts for me, likely wouldn't change that, because it has already been forged in fire in that sense.

Even if I gained another set of memories right now, it would at best only alter my extremes and even that is questionable depending on the level of influence, otherwise it is just more knowledge and information to act on.
I've had enough years to be able to accept multiple 'truths' to the same answer already, it wouldn't manage to phase that part of me.
