Well if your perspective is as you say it is then you are aware that the perspective I claim to have is not yours. In addition you would know that you aren't consciously creating this post that I'm making right now. Thus by inference you must be other than me since you are not the one creating this post right now.

To be clear my perspective is what I am aware of. Your perspective is what you are aware of. Right now I am aware of the computer that I am typing this post on and the temperature is 53 degrees and rainy where I am. Now I'm wondering if your perspective is different than mine? What are you aware of right now?

Firstly I claim that I am aware. I may claim all sorts of things but I'm only interested in true claims. So can I prove that my claim is true? You might ask how I know that I am aware. I know that I am aware because I am aware of my experience. In other words my experience is what I am aware of. By being aware of my experience I then realize that I am aware. Now if you doubt me I will further prove that I'm aware by responding to your doubt in a way that reveals to you that I am aware. Any doubts?

You have abilities. For example, you can type. Now you have two options to choose from right now. You can either type or not type. Your will is your ability to choose what to do. So you are exercising your will right now. In reality you have many options to choose from because you can do more than just type. Not everything I do is compulsive because some of my actions I choose to preform.

If you truly did not know about the feeling then you wouldn't know there is a feeling. Thus your claim that there is a feeling contradicts your claim that you don't know about the feeling. In addition if you didn't know anything you wouldn't be able to appropriately respond to my posts as you just did.
