((((((AtreyuFreek))))))) We totally understand that right now the alter that held most of the emotional baggage of past abuse shared with the others. It can be overwhelming for the whole system. Shadow was a younger alter too. but when the dam broke loose it was all out. When talking with past T the ones that did not understand how it works for us it was hard for them to understand how one part could give a narritve on what happen to the body but when another alter came out that one held the emotion containt of the situation. When we were going to our T back east when those parts where coming to the surface we laid down some safe guidlines. To help protect the whole from over reaction. Talk with your T and tell her how you feel. And ask about safety rules that can help you feel safe as a whole. Remember our safety bag it has the iteams that our alters need to feel safe. If you can communicate with this alter find out what makes her feel safe and take it with you also find out a safe word that she can use to tell the T that she is geting overwhelmed by the topic. safe hugs from all of us.
