I don't know if this has happened to anyone else, but one of my alters - Lizzie is very little, and uses childish speech. But when she comes up during times of distress, she is very well-spoken, and almost like the voice of a much older person. I'm having to think of her as Lizzie One (child) and Lizzie Two (child with adult sensibilities). They're definitely the same alter, (unless you can have identical twin alters). It's just thrown me. Lizzie Two speaks clearer than Outside Me - and I've done public speaking and audio recordings professionally before.

I know that when I was Lizzie's age, I had to do 'adult' things to survive the abuse, but this feels like something else. I'm a bit unnerved by it (British translation - quite scared)
