Man v. Self

(1) My Main Character (MC) is traumatized by an event and devolves toward suicide. In crating the Dramatica Character I am distinguishing MC and MC's Mind, developing them as separate characters. Any thoughts on this path?
The Main Character in his right mind is trying to be steadfast and follow my Pro/Contagonist, but in that attempt MC's Mind Antagonizes and eventually overtakes him. So should I develop him in Dramatica as 1 character or 2 separate chacters?
(2) Can the Protagonist and Contagonist be the same character if the Main Character is a different character?
