Go gently on your self. Like Wepow said "Honor yourself" and your alters. When we feel that we may have come of to strongly we would pull the person aside and tell the person that I/WE were having a bad day and that I want to appoligize for any hard feelings. Yes the body is treated as one by most people and we do agree that if it comes out of our mouth them we should make amends for what was said but also understand that when that part is out it is doing what it does best. Keeping others away from the body. Now to find a way to let that part know that you are safe. That is when our protectors were less reactive to others around us. So when you are thinking of all the bad side of this part is doing try to think of all the times it has protected you from abuse and find ways of letting her/him know that it does not have to go on full alert.
