I came accross Donna Williams blog on this subject and found it very interesting, and was curious if anyone can relate to the issues raised.

I have no tail showing and my eyeballs move together, but for a long time I have considered myself one of these:

Quote:
chameleon
1 : any of a family (Chamaeleontidae) of chiefly arboreal Old World lizards with prehensile tail, independently movable eyeballs, and unusual ability to change the color of the skin
2 a : a person given to often expedient or facile change in ideas or character
2 b : one that is subject to quick or frequent change especially in appearance


I think the blog you mentioned describes me well. I can consciously/knowingly be who or what either you or I need me to be in a given setting or situation while still always being "me" at the core. But, I really used to wonder how that could actually be possible and what might even be wrong with me in order to make it so.
