Unfortunately I am unable to control switching as well and I don't have co consciousness. I wish I did. But I have noticed when I do stuff like that (listening to the shows, etc), other parts seem to be distracted (or maybe it's me that is distracted so that I don't notice triggers as much and don't switch? Not sure), and if I'm able to avoid triggers and stay calm, I think I switch less. I am sra survivor as well. I understand how hard it is. I have problems with color and seasons and anything religious.... I'm so glad you are working toward healing. I have come a long way in the last several years and it does get better. Please hang in there. There is healing to be had. I'm amazed at where I was from 8 years ago. It can happen for sure.

So last night/yesterday we did hide things that could be used to SI and we made every one go to sleep with a soft blanket and a stuffed bunny called Sunshine for the little ones.One day we will be able to handle triggering dates....AHEAD of time.We are okay today, we made it through a bad day to the other side....I'm pretty proud that we are learning self care Thank you for the support wanttoheal....i like that name because i want to heal too ....and i am healing a little at a time , day by day haha sometimes minute by minute
