IJ thanks for you insight. I did send my t an email explaining what is happening. I have another session on monday. My angry one doesn't want to go. But we are going to go. I wanted to add that one of my other alters used to say angry things about me and was always suggesting I hurt myself or kill myself. I couldn't understand why. So not so long ago I realized that I never acknowledged how important he is to us and how his strength helped me through the abuse. I appoligized to him for not thanking him. My feelings were heart felt and senciere. I realized he had been through a lot but the only way I knew him was when he said those things. When he wanted to hit me.(and he had in the past) I starting asking him why and with very little effort he told me that he had been a big help but that I never thanked him and didn't acknowledge him. I thought about what he said and I realized he was right. I apologized and explained that I didn't know we were alters until five years ago. I thought hard about how he was there for us when we needed him and acknowledged his help and that I was happy he was here. He hasn't hit me or told me to kill myself sinse than. Although when I am under a lot of pressure and make a mistake he will still feel like hitting or name calling, but he don't. I think we lose track of the others as we get older and that causes hurt feelings. I just wanted to share that with you. My angry one is angry he never purposely tried to hurt us all though some of his actions got us hurt or almost. He is a protector but now he seems to want to be in the world. I am not sure if he is serious but sometimes it feels like he can be in control even if some of us object. Thanks again for talking to us.
