I have been down this path unsuccesfully before but I am trying again. Has anyone else tried to deny the parts are real? Like I sometimes wonder if they could possibly just be made up like make believe friends? My T says no, I am not four.

I am trying to work hard at practicing mindfulness and controling my brain to deny the parts or block the out. I am actualyy doing a pretty good job the last few days. It has been a couple weeks of practice but things have been pretty quiet for the past 2 days.

I am wondering if I quit therapy and stop talking about or thinking about them if I can learn to block them out. I still know they are there but I am wanting to believe they are all made up.

Has anyone else thought this way? I guess I am trying to stick my head in the sand and am in denial again.

My T basically won't do EMDR with me any more and doesn't really want to do T at all until I accept the parts again. We gave it 2 weeks and he thought I would give up this plan by now. He did agree today to continue to work with me on other issues until hopefully I start to accept reality again.
