My T said that I need to learn to accept the alters for what they are: parts of me that kept me safe during a very difficult time. But I don't need to be so vigilant now and they have served their purpose admirable. They don't feel like "a part of me". They feel very seperate. He said we will work on it together but it will take time.

I've been dissociating a lot lately, despite the medication. Does anyone have any ideas, any quick fixes that I can use to help my days run more smoothly? I have discovered that letting some of them post here has helped. They feel somewhat validated. I'm still fighting with feeling safe, you've all been wonderful in helping me with that, Thank You!
