Hello Marie
So you are worried that you have Dissociative Identity Disorder?
I have read that this is pretty rare and you would definitely need a professional to diagnose this disorder.
Is it possible that you are sleep walking/talking or else having some sort of seizure? I am just throwing out other possibilities.
Here is an article about Dissociative Identity Disorder where it details how one is diagnosed.
If you are really concerned about this I would seek the help of a therapist. Hope this helps some and thank you for your question.
