my internal system of alters was one where we could not do anything about parts that distrusted others and blocked alters from speaking with her, all we could do was continue working with me to develop positive coping tools that enabled me to take over doing the jobs in which was the alters purpose, job and reason for being...
example alters that didnt trust...they were created in me because I was not able to handle that emotion and situations that needed me to be untrustworthy, distinguish between trust worthy people and untrustworthy people. these alters of mine were created in such a way as to prevent my getting close to someone and reduce the risk of my telling someone I was being hurt. so instead of trying to convince alters to come out and talk with my therapist (which is illegal and unethical where I am anyway according to the ethics board that over sees any of the treatment providers I have and do see) my therapist and I would work on improving my daily life skills and improve my coping skills for those problems that caused me to dissociate..anxiety makes me dissociate so learn how to handle anxiety through meds and other positive coping tools, kinds of stuff.
eventually there was no need to have alters that did this kind of job, purpose, reason for being so they integrated with me and we all became one whole person again.
