That kind of sounds like me, myself, and I John. The same scenario but I gave some of mine names then it kind of confused me in a sense for a while because that part just takes control sometimes in another voice tone and says her name or something while I still have control I think or a I am aware, trying to conversate with her. It is weird. I feel the other parts of me there per say. We all have different ways of being, doing, and acting but it is not extreme. We also have different voice tones... I loose time sometimes but never that much and nobody does things to harm me or the body. We are trying to heal from emotional abuse. We all go down a different track sometimes in our ways of thinking so that gets stopped and I forget what I was previously thinking a lot. I have to remind myself later on. One has a hard time telling their doctor what this is or getting them to believe the whole. It is a long ride and if you don't have any real solid memories recovered inside of you or gaps then it is even harder. One usually does not know they have the disorder niether they just feel themselves there and everyone sees themselves as the core but different. Like I see me as Jessica and go by this said name but I am also different in nature myself at times. Not by too much but by a little. I think that ya'll get the picture. I was just trying to help out. Hope this helped John. I am just trying to look for answers myself as well in the ways of communication between the selves that way we can all talk more properly amounst the whole... Thanks... Jessica and crew out
