Now that this is turning into an AMA..... grandmotherweb: what is it like for your partner to be with someone who has multiple 'alters'- is there 1 alter she/he/______ likes more than another? is there an alter you like better when you're under the spell of it so to speak? sincerely, someone know doesn't know shit about this type of disorder.

read LB Lee's webcomics about it: http://healthymultiplicity.com/loonybrain/ComicsHome.html

"Charlotte" is the main fronting alter: Tabula Rasa, neutral accent, doesn't talk to anyone we don't know
"Black Betty" has a thick southern drawl, and comes out for burlesque shows
"Black Jack" is 17, no accent, hates everyone, including Partner sometimes
"Rudy" is an introject based on our Grandpapa John, who joined the marines at 14, lied about his age, and served two tours in Korea. our Pain Management Specialist.

we make an effort to co-front consistently as "Charlotte" when around Partner, but sometimes we're "fragmented"/dissociating, talking to ourselves, not paying attention to Partner or surroundings.
sex is not as enjoyable under those circumstances, as young alters can get triggered and start freaking out for no reason. so instead we do yoga and watch cartoons.
