I gave my intro, but don't know anything about any of you all yet, except what little bits I can pull from replies and whatnot, so...

Anyone who wants to introduce themselves, please, I'd like to get to know some of you all. Don't mean to be an attention whore, I'm just curious as to what you're all like, what makes you tick. Are any of you like me, you were always more than one person but you didn't realize it because you were co-fronting? Was there a specific event that brought you together, or awakened someone who had been "sleeping" within you? Are you more like diagnosed DI, parts of your mind fragmeneted to form individual selves in response to something? Or was it something else entirely?

Does one of you front most of the time? Has it always been this way? Does more than one person want to be in control? How do you get along with your bodymates? How often has it gotten you neck-deep in trouble? Do you ever doubt that this is real, think maybe you're just crazy and everyone else that cklaims to be in your body is just part of your overactive imagination/schizophrenia/etc? Or do you beleive - no, accept this so deeply that you can be content being just one of many?

Forgive the slew of questions, but I'm genuinely curious. I only personally know one other sane, "healthy" multiple, and I've only known her maybe a month. My best friend and roomate is fragmented, but that's not the same thing by any stretch...though now that I finally got around to coming out to him (known him like 8, 9 years I think, and we tell each other about everything else we have going on except the most important one >.<) Admittedly, it will be easier to live together now, seeing as I can stop pretending to be what I'm not when I get home, which I haven't been able to do since I lived alone. It gets really tiring fast, as I'm sure most of you know.

So yes. I seem to have ranted again, but please, tell me about yourselves (pun not intended).
