Hi, WePow(s) and Slient One:
Silent One may be an alter or not but for sure it is you being aware and I am here for you (all).
By the nature of your questions I would concur with the others that it is something for you to be curious and watchful of. When you say you are: "always on the outside watching myself from a distance when the Silent One is out", it does sound rather like a dissociated part that had to be somewhat numb and silent in order to protect or at least 'be aware' of what was happening in order to maintain who you are.
The communication may need to be non-verbal and non-written which makes it difficult needless to say. How do thoughts come to you, WePow? How I knew about this distance is quite unbeknowst to myself, I drew myself on the side of a large wooden crate. I was rather shocked to see me embedded in the wall of the crate but I came to understand it was necessary at the time. It was safe.
Our minds are wonderful things and I know I am preaching to choir on this matter. You maintained your life! Your mind is strong and good and I believe you will work this out and get to the bottom of it.
I am here for you.
All the best to you.
Hunny

The question I have is about a part of me that I can only refer to as the Silent One. I have always felt it... not a personality like the other alters. It is kinda like robot mode. But it is still not me and the other alters say it is not them either. I am always on the outside watching myself from a distance when the Silent One is out.
Silent One I now believe might have been the part of me that participated in the things the rest of me could not do. It is a very cold feeling. And it never ever has said a single word or even whispered a thought. There is no love or hate there at all. There is no anger and no fear.
Do you guys have any idea if this is an alter or not?
How do you communicate with it? Or do you?
How do you trust yourself to not have it come out and harm you?
All advice is greatly appriciated!
