I don't know that I'll actually try this. Haven't asked my T about it and I'm guessing that she wouldn't think it's a good idea. My partner has been to T with me and has been to another T on his own who specializes in PTSD and DID. He "knows" that I may never know, but he's still frustrated and hopeful for answers. I have some communication with this alter and she's given me basic info, but both my partner and I wonder what led up to all of this or did she jump right into the mess. Plus, is there any more out there? I tend to speculate and think the worst. I worry about false memories, but I can't help but wonder if my alter is minimizing what she's done. Or am I just exaggerating what I think may have happened. Plus, there's always the standard answer that I may not be able to handle the truth just yet or even ever. The memories will come when I'm ready for them.
