I have something similar to alternate personalities. I have three I can name off the top of my head. Darkness, the personality that likes doing bad in subtle ways. Never hurting friends, though more aggressive than the others. Peace, the one that is phased by almost nothing. Simply calm. And lastly, Joy. The personality of a silly five year old.

Now after being is the darkness phase for a week, I've made some decisions I regret. Nothing large. Something stupid or impolite.

Though I started to have a bit of a breakdown after seeing this. Now, there is something I haven't had in forever and a day. My emotional issues were though to have died a year ago after I had a breakdown that caused some serious trouble. Like an emotional callus.

Even typing it so far has helped calm me. What I mentioned above is not the issue. The issue is I'm thinking I might relapse and get depressed in the future if I get into a serious jam by chance.

So my questions are this:

What can I do to prevent going into a relapse?

If I do is there a simple way to get back out of the metaphorical pit fall trap?

If you have some sort of split personality disorder, learn how to live with it. As long as your other "personalities" aren't dangerous, then you should have nothing to worry about. Teach yourself self control, understand that the rest of the world might not understand your situation. Don't be worked up over this, lots of people experience what you have. Learn to have fun with it. If you haven't already, tell your friends, and possibly family members that you have this disorder. You mentioned yourself that coming here and expressing yourself is sort of helping you to cope with his. Why not try that? Get a notebook and pen and start writing down thoughts that you have with each personality. Make short stories, draw pictures or create make believe universes. :)

Keep your head up, don't feel hopeless.

Nothing diagnosed, but I go under these mental shifts. It's hard to describe, probably why it was so unclear to describe. None are really dangerous anyway.

Errr, I might be coming across unclear. The mental shifts are subtle enough that they aren't need to be mentioned. Its the results that bothered me. After going out from one I regretted some choices and broke down. That hasn't happened for a year and it would suck if I went back to depression, that was my major fear. That I would freak out again.
