Yes, this makes sense.  And I don't think Jacqueline would go to a doctor
anyway because she certainly doesn't seem to think there's anything wrong
with *her*.  (Besides, being a vampire she'd never dream of going to a
*human* doctor!)

Well, as far as the first question goes, the original Ellen Simmons (which
must be her legal name since that's the one the police got info on)
presumably split into "Ellen" and "Monica" in childhood.  The problems that
started it all still haven't been dealt with.  Jacqueline is not a complete
person, just an aspect of a split whole.

As for your second question, we're told that "Jacqueline" emerged to deal
with her being brought over.  Having just had one of her human alters try
suicide, she could well decide that it's safer being a vampire and try to
stay dominant all the time.  That makes a lot of sense.

However, until the various personae are integrated, the other alters still
could emerge--say at a time when it would be easier to deal with something
as a human.  For example, if there were a hunter around, Jacqueline could
well prefer to let Monica cope with "passing".

And, if there were a fourth, new persona to emerge after the fall, we've no
idea what sort of character she'd have.
