Does your girlfriend try to go to school or work? It seems like it would be hard to do that stuff if you can't remember what you were doing. Also, do the personalities have drastically different interests? It seems like that would also make it hard to do a particular career.
Can the person with this issue try to carry a note-book around that they record all the important stuff that happens to them in so that they can look at it and know what happened when they switch? Can they tell if they have switched recently? Wouldn't it be disorienting to them when they switch because they don't remember how they got there?
How does a person discover that they have this issue? It seems like you would just think that you had memory loss unless somebody told you what you did while you couldn't remember what you were doing and you realized that it was totally out of character. Can you know what your alter is like, or do other people have to tell you?
I skimmed the wiki page briefly. Sorry if it addressed these issues already.
And can you try to answer the question about if they get jealous? If I met a girl like that I would try to have a relationship with both of them until/unless one or both of them told me that I had to choose between them. It would get confusing to me to have to treat her differently at different times.
She doesn't go to school or work. She has inheritance money that she lives off of. She's on a tons of medication now that helps somewhat, but it doesn't cure the issue at hand. The personalities do not have drastically different interest per se. The only two I've encountered... One dislikes video games and the other loves them. Other than that, they like the same books and stuff. She does carry around a note book and has diaries that she reads to learn more about what the others are up to.
A doctor told her. And her notes allow her to get a grasp on what the others are like.
There's no real jealousy involved. Not that I can tell yet.
