Hey CO...
I really don't call up alters because we are all equal....no one really rules the other...we're like a collective. We can request an other to step up...it's up to them....so a 'No" is not like an uncommon thing.
It's so wild that situations and circumstances triggers others to react, much like coping and life skills as required in the present.
Even coming on here is a trigger for me to be.
We switch all day long, moment to moment, minute to minute, lifetime to lifetime.
My story is I've been physically, emotionally, mentally screwed with for 18 years....I shouldn't be happening...anyways, it's possible.
