I've never heard of the term "facets", but instead "fragments" which about means the same thing, I guess. Those that can identify with poly-fragmentation (hundreds to thousands of alters) uses them terms. Alter fragments are one dimensional, created to hold a trauma memory, or a bit of emotion. There are also more layers and sub layer, according to others.

Those suffering from RA are most likely to be poly-fragmented, programmed to do things that they don't want to do from birth.

Alters do interact and influence each other. I know when one is trying to make a decision a voice would come out of no where and say "pick the other one!" Or a strong urge would happen. Usually we put it to a group vote.

The complexity of it all is incredible.
As I said before, I'm beginning to think that this term is only popular on the internet platform I and my friends are on, since they all seem to sort of get that term a bit more. But fragments is also interesting, I'd like to hear more about it.

The thing is, I don't hear a voice. I just get urges that I know aren't mine and personality that I feel that's sort of weird. I have wants that I don't think that I'd have else wise. And I guess I can just feel it? I really don't know how to put in the words what my feeling is.
