If two women had dark hair i couldn't tell who was who until they started to say something. This also happens in real life i can run into someone i know but not be able to tell the difference between that person and another friend of mine who might look similar. How come i can't tell people apart? Does anyone have something similar? It's not like one alter knows a certain person and the alter who is out may not, it's not bringing able to distinguish one person from another visually. It's becoming stressful and seems to be happening more often. Like all the faces look the same.
suddenly not recognizing people/faces is called face blindness (prosopagnosia) there are many different causes...medication side effect, drugs, alcohol, stress, physical brain problems.....

with in me it was a medication problem. once the meds were adjusted\changed things went back to normal.

my suggestion isif this continues to bother you contact your/a treatment provider, they can help you to get tested for all the different problems that can cause this to happen and tell you why this is happening in you and get you treated for it.
