audrey, you'll get used to the many views with little replies. alot of ppl from other forums view to offer support when they can, and when they understand. don't worry about that one! your post is not silly!
we have coloring books, blankets and stuffies (stuffed animals). the favorite stuffed animal right now is a huge black bear with a red ribbon and is used to comfort. one child really likes to explore and find shells and look for diamond rocks and things of that nature. it's precious.
the children haven't been close recently. i think it's because i'm doing some really yuck stuff in therapy.
i don't know how many are here. i do know that there are children and adult...just don't know how many. it seems that insiders are very protective and hidden. i'm trying to learn in t how to listen to them better so that things will work more smoothly. i don't listen well...to anything or anybody. my mind races too much.
i know that there are insiders who's names it feels i've always known of. then there are others who aren't as defined (i can't think of a good word to explain). i've realized recently that not only do i get alot of internal grief, i get alot of internal help that i've become very dependent on.
that's about where i'm at

i've been dx'ed DID for 3 yrs now? work is slow as it's taken time to trust and for things to begin to come out.
be safe! i love your posts...don't ever hesitate.
