Can we revive this thread and talk more about ego states?

I've been exploring some of my own ego states. I don't seem to have totally separate personalities but I do have several states that seem to have personality traits and emotions associated with them. I also seem to have difficulty moving from one state to another when needed. For example when I am in therapy the emotional or private state is the one who wants desperately to be heard, but it is continually block, contradicted, or overridden by other states. I can't figure out how to quiet the other states enough to let this state through. I know hypnosis if sometimes done to help isolate ego states. What else is done?

I also seem to have a childish state which... is not very productive and is creating a lot of turmoil for the overall system... this state needs to go. I've acknowledge it, now I just need to deal with it and get it to dissolve or morph into something more productive or harmoniousness with the other states. I know there are no simple fixes.
