Changed lines 6-7 from:
An example is we used to say "we" before we *knew* we were plural/multiple, and then if someone asked we'd say "Oh, it's the Royal 'we'." We also (around the same time) started talking about Me, Myself & I as 3 separate people…but as if it was a joke.

Thanks for the adds, these are definitely relevant and have parallels in English too. "I'm beside myself with anger" (similar to the "Worry" one above), "unhinged" or "coming undone" or losing their grip on reality being very similar to derealization experiences, "internal conflict" is definitely an English saying as well — "I'm conflicted…" and "I can't make up my mind" — especially about something that would normally seem to be a straightforward thing for a singular person ("Some days my favorite color is purple, and I hate green. But then on other days I love green and hate purple. Apparently I can't make up my mind." — maybe something more than just indecision is going on there?)
Some of the memes are using plurality/multiplicity as a "gotcha" — which isn't the same as the potential of inadvertently talking about one's own multiplicity before even knowing about it consciously.

"Oh yeah? Who says so!"\\
"Me, Myself and I say so."
