I am me. Others in us say they are 'me' - meaning not me, Luce, but themselves. We each have our own sense of self and refer to our selves as 'me' - meaning our own selves. Not one of us identifies with the birth name or thinks they are that person. I think of myself as me, A thinks of herself as A, B thinks of himself as B, etc. A thinks of me as Luce, and 'not her'. Having said that there are times when we feel very depersonalized and don't feel like our individual selves, and can't identify a known other either. Kind of like nobody. Just floating through.
