Thanks for your replies Amandlouise and Montanan4ever.
I see what you mean about the child within AmandaLouise. For me though, this child me, Emily, isn't associated with any particular time or event. Like, if I think back to a happy memory of my childhood I can feel that I was happy then but if I picture it I picture very clearly me at that age. Whereas Emily doesn't look like me at all and I can't relate her to any of my memories or recollections really. Likewise the angry teen, who is someone I argue with often in my head as she doesn't like me very much and is very destructive. I was like that at times as a teen, but again when I picture her she doesn't look like I did back then and I can't directly associate her with what I did/went through. There are times though when I have flashes of memory that don't make sense and then she appears in my head kind of smug and I know they are to do with her.
I am hopefully going to be getting an assessment soon, apparently there is a form in the post for me to fill in before they will give me an initial appointment. Hopefully they will be able to help me figure this out.
Montanan4ever - I am glad I make sense to you, and that things are getting a bit easier to manage for you. I hope they do for me too one day.
