This is my site about the Wombtwin Survivors Project. You are very welcome here. There is a lot of information in this site, so come back often and learn about wombtwin survivors. If you started life as a twin but your twin died at birth - or before, in what they call the "vanishing twin" phenomenon, then this is the site for you.
For every set of twins born, there are at least ten wombtwin survivors. That means that many millions of people throughout the world are wombtwin survivors, but most of them have no idea that they are. At least one may be in your family. In fact, the wombtwin survivor in the family may be you! Sole twins, regardless of when or how their twin died, spend their lives with a vague sense of someting missing.
Wombtwin survivors spend their lives constantly re-enacting their Dream of the Womb. Nothing is more important than that - even life itself. They will go to extraordinary lengths and choose to create all kinds of fantasies, simply to keep that Dream alive, for in the Dream is the twin they yearn for and search for, their whole life long.
I can help you
There is no doubt in my mind that wombtwin survivors suffer more if they don't know why they feel as they do. They have problems with food, with relationships and low self esteem. The articles on this site and the books that have arisen from this project provide that much-needed explanation. Wombtwin survivors can be misunderstood because they seem "weird" or "different." This has been called "lost twin syndrome" or "vanishing twin" syndrome, which sounds like have some kind of disorder, but in fact its a competely normal state of mind. I know that sole surviving twins are not crazy, odd, different or even sick. They feel as they do because they are wombtwin survivors. That's all. Just knowing that can be an enormous relief.
Whatever problem you have got with all this, I will try to help. Just email me. Perhaps you have been waiting all your life for someone to tell you that you are not crazy.
OK. You are not crazy: you are a wombtwin survivor!
