I have short term memory loss from the drugs. But we all respond to the host's name. I've found other people with DID prefer to be called different names.

We learned at a young age that you have to respond to the cores name even if that is not who "YOU " are . Once when we were about 8 years old we were in school and a teacher kept calling our " name" and we didn't respond because a different part was out and it wasn't her name being called so she did not reply...long story short they gave us a hearing test LOL!!! BUT the name of our host can be triggering....And ha most of us would prefer to be called by our own name but that would only draw attention to our core and hurt her
