It has just been within the last month that I was diagnosed, but have been trying to find the answer for years...
Now that I have it I wish I had stopped looking.
since your alter is talking to your therapist, and your therapist is the one treating you, it would be best for you to handle it how ever your therapist thinks best.

the way my therapist and I handled alters that were doing negative things was for me to understand my alters were there to do their job, purpose, reason for being. in this case to have sex and self injure. just like I had no control over what my best friend does with her body I had no control over what my alters do when they are in control of my body. they were there for a reason other wise I would not have created them. when the alters were self injuring my therapist would hospitalize me until the inpatient treatment providers said I (the alters) was no longer a danger to myself or other. other than that we made sure there were plenty of condoms around and I got tested regularly and frequently for std's and other problems that can come from being intimate with people I didnt know.

again only you and your treatment providers can say how best for you to handle whats going on with in your body and internal system of alters.
