My therapist has spoken with two of my alters that she knows of. She has spoken to others but she isn't aware of that. When she realizes she is talking to an alter she will ask them questions like if they work, eat, play, drive etc. My alters have specific jobs so it confuses them when she asks them things they don't do or are not aware of as something they could do. I sent my therapist an email explaining how this confuses us. My question is,Can it have a negative affect on my alters when they are exposed to concepts and thoughts that are not part of their job? Or is better to continue asking them about things they may not have experienced? I have one who was happy and innocent until she was asked about eating. She didn't know what my therapist was talking about. She doesn't eat. Others do. She never thought of herself as incomplete. She was just inquisitive, happy and innocent. Now she is confused and quite. And no longer innocent. It is not the therapist's falt, that is not what I am saying. I am trying to figure out how my alters and therapist can communicate without the confusion. One last question. Is it a good thing for my alters to question why they exist? Thanks for any insight you can offer.
