I now understand better what you're saying. This part is still living in the past, thinks that the trauma still takes place? I also have small parts that are still living in the past, and believe that we are still in danger. Those experiences of them are quite overwhelming and can make you feel like everything happened again.
What I do is help those parts to show that it is 2013 and that we are safe. I wrote it on the bathroom mirror so that they would be reminded that we live in 2013 and that we are safe. I tried to talk to them (I do not have contact with all parts) For one of my small parts it has really worked She is more aware of the here and now. But she is also coconscious with me,
we can communicate, so she is learning 'fast'. My other little part is another story ....but that takes time.
