I don't feel 'real' here in this moment perhaps but still disconnected like I know its not my life I'm living,I'm just borrowing it. She doesn't feel 'real'either so who is real? The one who is the original is rarely around anymore so does she still get to claim that right? She doesn't seem to want it. *sigh* sorry. I'm ranting.

Well, each one of us thinks that we each are the original and the Other is an alter....truth being....we are all alters with alter meaning alternate state of consciousness.
In our system, we are so shattered and fragmented into splinters that there is no sense of a main.
So, as an exercise, we all must acknowledge that we are all alters, all parts of a whole if integrated.
Trust me, they feel just as hurt about being a multiple as you do, some better some worse...she has her own feelings and opinions that you are not privy to because of amnesia.
Best is to get to a level of understanding of we are all in the same boat together and try to get along. Being civil goes along way...you aren’t going to be friends with everyone in the same room....but you can be civil about it.
