I am taking a college course that is really triggering to me (just now triggered writing my own paper - this is why i had to medically drop it last year) and i really, really need to finish it this year.
What happens is, I get in there (online) or am writing my paper - trigger - swap alters or diss- so badly that i then forget i am not only in class, but forget i'm even in school! @_@
I have disability in there already, but what i NEED (thus my question) is if anyone in PC can send a PM every other day or so -like a check-in -and see if I still remember I am in class 
This particular course moves VERY quickly and it is so easy to get behind (like last year *sigh*). I am 3 courses from graduating so this is crucial.
Anyone??  and thanks in advance!!!  |
Ummm I would BUT this plan may not work.. you are dissociating into alters that do not know you are in this class which could be that these alters are not from this time frame. If your buddy system plan doesnt work dont panic heres another option for you.
Some of my alters were stuck in the date/year when they came to be. in that case they were not able to know what I was doing in the here and now. The laundry wasnt getting done, classes werent being attended, going to work wasnt getting done. A friend who is DID also and I tried doing the buddy system to keep each other on track, but because of where my alters were stuck at it didnt work. Ultimately what happened was I had to work extensively with my therapist on learning what the triggers were that caused the problem then call my therapist during those times when I was triggered. My therapist was able to walk me through using therapeutic ways to come out of being triggered. She also during this time scheduled my therapy sessions for twice a week so that we could practice using the triggers and therapetic techniques with her. after a month (8 sessions) of working with my therapist on my class related triggers and therapeutic techniques I was able to do the work on my own and the problem was easily solved by every time I went into triggers I used the therapy techniques.
heres wishing you good luck.
