How can an identitiy  break  even before it's been developed?

Like a prototype.    

abandoned

Just as inspiration strikes.

One day you grow concious,
and you hear your thoughts aloud.
"This is me, and I exist!"

You don't notice the change
in your mind's...
My minds...
Our minds
echos.

What once was familiar is suddenly cracked.
Do you even remember what you used to sound like?

Confused, you think
Theives!!
How you've stolen what's mine!
But it's there. Somewhere there.
Feeling something. But not me.
Recently a friend of mine came out to me as having DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder). As him and I align, perfectly the same, in our processing of trauma, suddenly, something shifted in my brain. Like a door that had been locked, clicking open for the first time. It makes me think of the ways I may be split up, and it is overwhemingly scary when "Me" starts to become "Us". (for anyone concerned about self-diagnosis, these are just my thoughts and feelings, and not any definite conclusion for myself. I have professionals in my life who I can rely on for help and understanding in this matter)
