Most of what I know if from pictures or stories people tell me. I have some memories if I make myself think real hard but it's difficult and fuzzy.
My alters, of which I have 11 that I know of, mostly aim to protect me. They all have names and unique personalities, some of which I know I would never ever be like independently. My head is kind of different though. I kind of designed a mansion inside my head where all my alters and I think and... They've got different appearances from my physical body. I know it sounds weird but we're all on the same site you know?
Is there anyone else out there that can communicate and visualize their alters? I'd love to hear from you (:

no my DID was a bit different in that I did lose time. the only time I could "see" my alters in any way was when my meds were not working right for my bipolar induced psychosis and I could talk inside to a limited few who never answered back, but knew they heard be because their internal discussions changed, or I felt calmer.
That said I I do know some people that have had the same problem that you have...recently their treatment providers have changed their diagnosis from DID to OSDD because here we go by the new diagnostic standards in the DSM 5 where OSDD is having less severity then DID like not having that time loss..
