I am not sure about fragmented personalities - starting to wonder though.
Anyway, I sometimes refer to myself as a we or us when talking about myself or more specifically to myself. Such as... "it's ok, we're going to be ok". I don't always talk like that; however, it is frequent enough for me to notice. Also, I do find myself associating significantly different personality traits to different ages, genders.

Before I go into a new class each semester and for the first few classes after that or right before a really adversarial proceeding in court - I do that bit out of All that Jazz - but without the drugs.
I also do it before therapy appointments. Showtime
