Have you ever seen the movie "The Big Lebowski?" "The royal we" is a line from it. Perhaps you connected with that line? I've noticed I connect/relate with movies that have a character that seems to experience DID. Maybe we just see it as an end to the thought continuum everyone has. For example: Fight Club, Being John Malkovich, The Shining (the alter "tony"), Alice in Wonderland.
Diagnosis: DID

I did see The Big Lebowski with H, but only in the last couple of years and barely watched it. Too much cursing for me, personally...and that's triggers for some parts, I've discovered. I don't remember the royal we thing being in that. If I think REALLY hard about when these memories feel like they were happening, it would be 16-years-ago, a few years before the movie came out. I pull up a memory of a specific group project for a specific history class my sophomore year in high school. I feel like it wasn't the first time I had to do that, though. I don't think it's my memory, though, because it's like I'm getting postcards in my head about when/where it was.
