Dear Birdcrazy,
The longer they've been pasting labels on you, the tougher it is to escape, but the fact that they change the labels with some frequency is proof that they cannot define who "you" are. There's no label in the world that could "define" or "describe" the real you. You can picture a real, heavy safe, with walls six inches thick, a door and a combination lock. Stick the labels in there, close the heavy door and roll the combination lock. Don't open the safe again until right before you see your P or T. Afterwards, put them back. This kind of stuff has worked for me for years. It sounds hokey, but one
can wilfully forget things and then retrieve them as needed.
Take care.
