I do understand you may not like how I do things but there is nothing I can do about it. I have to follow the work place rules and regulations and protocols where I work or be fired and at the moment I need this job to pay my rent, medical bills and other responsibilities that I have. Thanks for your opinions on this.

actually amadalouise, i've been meaning to qualify my post to you but the thread took a really bad turn and i didn't want to interject anything else.
but since my posting, i have talked with someone to get their take on it, and who shared with me that this is in fact a valid way to treat inpatients who for whatever reason have created alters that don't exist, or have alters who try to sabotage the treatment, etc. so boundaries have to be set so they won't be influenced unduly and making their opportunities for healing worse.
and oh do i understand about rules and regulations, i am in the health care field too (but not the mental health areas) and medicaid etc. is very strict and we have guidelines that must be followed for the protection of the clients/patients.
SO, i am learning hon.

but actually now more confused about alters, their motives, their manipulations, etc.! it must be just awful. and personally, i may never know what lies below the surface...it's a work in progress.
thank you and my secret friend for clarifying your post for me. i will of course continue to read and learn, but will be quiet now about things i know nothing of.
