I have heard of this type of thing happening and I have witness it once during my out patient classes at a center that is strictly for people with DID.... this place greatly helped me to understand myself and others that suffer from DID (and) for that I am grateful.

BTW - I have NEVER told another living soul this....... but I am presently trying to figure out if I am Me (or) is she ME, my last alter.
I am not for sure.... and all I do know is that my DID T told me that my last alter and I are so closely related (similar to each other) that it is hard to tell who is Carol and who is Carolyn.

I personally became aware of Carol when I turned 12 - when all hell had broken loose in my life, but I honestly thought it was just me wanting to be someone else, therefore, I changed (shorten) my name to a more mature persons name.... hence the name Carol that many knew me by for about 5 to 7 years.

I still hate it when my old buddies (or family members) call me Carol.... I often cringe inside from sickness.

Thanks..... for letting me tell my little secret to others that care.
