we were able to manage this because my alters were so individualized. they all had their own jobs, likes, dislikes, clothing styles everything including lives separate from me the conscious self. the only time it got a bit strange for me was when I "woke" up in Honolulu handing out leis. I found out that alter had moved us clear out of the continental USA and decided to work in a hotel there. what could I do but continue to work there until I had enough money to get us back stateside. For me it was pretty normal to have alters that had lives and jobs of their own. now that Im integrated its a bit more challenging but Im managing.
Thanks for this!
