This kind of thing was happening with some of the alters in us at one poit and it got to be chaotic with two or more alters talking inside at the same time and arguing and I guess that this must've either forced out a dormant personality or caused it creation because (and at the time I thought it was just me when I've had enough) suddenly there was one who started identifying itself as "The Primary" who was very authoritative and started keeping the conflicting personalities in line and basically not putting up with any kind of crap which was a relief for me as they were all driving me nuts.
Because of PR (The Primary) there are no longer any arguments, unwanted switching save for triggers when, under stress and everyone showing respect for one another. Those of us with the most self control or who are more positive are not subject to PR's authority and I, Dan, the host am over PR as well as everyone else. Everyone obeys me now and those who would seek to cause problems are afraid of PR who is my enforcer. PR started out with no emotions but, has learned a little bit of emotion from observing me.
The most troublesome persona/alter, DH has calmed down as a result of entering into an agreement with me and we have stopped resisting each other. In fact after decades of conflict we are now getting along pretty well.
It's in a way like Piccolo and Kami getting along after so many years of conflict. Funny. Didn't think of it that way until now.
