There is a book out there called "Coping with Trauma-Related Dissociation". It deals with the varying levels of dissociation that can accompany trauma including dissociative identity disorder. One of the things I liked about this book was the beginning where it is explained that everyone's experience with what DID feels like can be different. This was a huge relief (oddly enough) because what I experienced did not seem to fit into what I had read previously even though my therapist told me people's experiences were different. I did not read more than the first 6 chapters of the book, but that is only because my parts interfered with my ability to focus on reading the rest (I guess "we" weren't ready). It is a confusing journey and I wish you the best on your path.What's confusibg for me is that there doesn't seem to be a solid language used. Plus, definitions vary. Then there is the media representation, and the diagnostic representation, and then what it might actually feel like to have it.
