Is being androgyne synonymous with being multidimensional

My mind is a soup. Not think enough to be stew.

maybe 'multidimensional' is the wrong word.

in the sense of viewing different points of view, yes. Except it's still mine, I can't read minds.
I can imagine how I myself would feel in a certain situation.
In some ways, I can predict how somebody else would react (as in, behavior; I can't know what's happeing inside them) with a decent degree of accuracy.

I find that my decision making process works as an spiral, trying every point of view I can think of, until I get tired or I have to make a choice now.

And making decisions is, in most cases, simple. I usually just follow my intuition.

My problem is not making a choice, I can very well know what's the right thing to do; The hard thing is actually going and accomplishing what I think.

On the other hand, I accomplish lots of things I don't *think* about, in the process of being distracted of those things I want to do.

I find "multi process" more accurate, as I seem to be thinking more than one thing at a given time... Except when I'm on certain drugs, which appear to help me actually focus on a single thing. Yes, I know drugs are bad, no need to get in that off topic, ok ?

Finally, I've been criticised a lot for not having much discipline, supposedly, if I had good discipline, I could control my focusing and not waste as much time thinking about other things.
I strongly disagree, and I'm also offended at the asumption that my though process is somehow wrong.

In any case, I do acknowledge that I am actually, honestly, insane. But that's another thing entirely.

I would say my thinking is generally multidimensional -- I always consider multiple options and, while I'm decisive, I find it difficult to take a strong stand on positions where subtleties of opinion and inevitable compromise are involved (like politics  ;D)

As far as thinking multidimensionally in the Calc 3 sense -- X,Y,Z cordinates, polar, spherical etc, NO WAY!!
