My T has told me about (and I am somewhat aware of) a teenage part. I guess she was created when I was very young to step in and take the abuse. Apparently, she is "based on" my best friends older sister - who was much older than us, and who I perceived at the time as being very cool and tough.

And yeah, it seems like she is almost a caricature of a teenager. It's like there's no depth to her, she's just a "teenager"...kind of a smarta**, thinks she's tough, that sort of thing. No real feelings, or emotional life, like you said. Just sort of pi**ed off, and willing to take on the world.

It IS interesting to hear about her, and to "see" her a little sometimes...because it's so obvious to me that I saw this person, thought she could handle anything, and just picked out her most obvious traits and took them on.

Good topic
