Know that DID is not the same as having an alter-ego. Many people claim to have multiple personalities, when in fact they have an alter-ego. An alter-ego is an invented/created second personality that a person uses as a way to act or behave in a way different from their normal personality. Many people with DID are not completely aware of their multiple personality states (due to the amnesia that occurs), while people with an alter-ego are not only aware of their second personality, but they worked hard to consciously create it.
Celebrity examples of alter-egos include Eminem/Slim Shady and Beyonce/Sasha Fierce.
How to Know if You Have DID or Dissociative Personality Disorder

i've been trying to contemplate this...
but my memory is so bad and i didnt really intend on creating some alter-ego just to have a certain image for people :"confused:"

which brings me to another question...
is the switching from alters fluid? like can you flow through a set of alters without even realizing it which leaves you confused and questioning what just happened, or has been happening

my anxiety is really high right now so im gonna stop for real...
im border line panic attack dizzy, tingling sensations, tight chest, hyperventilating... blablabla... im so hard on myself
i can be too obsessive sometimes... especially when it comes to wanting to understand something... even more so when it involves my wellbeing i guess..
