I think having a different self for many different situations is normal for many people. Examples are like when im with family, im carefree and sometimes even confident. Around friends, its a whole other story and i act like the wierdest goof ever. Around a person im crushing on or dating is similar but more reserved or insecure. Around coworkers, i become like a super nice, responsible person whos super afraid to do wrong. School was similar except with friends. And strangers i meet vary depending on the gender and first impressions and my mood but definently reserved.
But it was after depression hit when i questioned who i was and who my true authentic self is. Im still figuring that out. Some people have a solid mold for their whole lifes and others have different selfs to fit a particular situation or people.
It could contribute to dpdr as its a partial or total loss of sense of self and/or life. Everything feeling unfamiliar or foriegn is normal in dpdr.
Im very sorry for your loss, thats very difficult, i can relate as i got my recent bout of dpdr from the loss of my father. Death definently hammers home the feeling of no control and anxiety and the fear of the unknown. Im also in the process of moving too.
