I know I react strangely but I cannot interfere, it's like I'm at the background and watch things happening (she takes over), without being able to react.
But it does not feel as if I can speak about 'we'. It's more 'she and i'.
Do you all feel like 'we', as I read in your threads? Or are there also people with ddnos here, with a dissociative disorder that is more internal than external (words of my therapist)? And feel more like 'me and the other part'?
I'm still very confused about it all and would be very glad if anyone could understand this feeling. Thank you.
I am integrated so its all one person point of view (I did this, I did that, Im going to do that, let me do this).

Before I was integrated it was still the one person point of view because I was not co conscious with most if not all my alternate personalities. I heard the voices but was unaware that they were the voices of my alters. When I was an alter if the alter was conscious of the existance of other alters sometimes they talked in single person and other times in plural. I also had alters that talked strictly in the plural because they were conscious of the existance of the other alters and me.
