Hi freewill!


For me, piecing tog. what my alters have done is often kinda like detective work. i generally find out about what my alters hav been up to in 1 of 2 ways:
People often tell me that i did or said such and such, thaey seen me at such and such a place, etc. i usually have no recollection of this stuff and it tells me that someone else has been out and about.
I also find receipts for items that i do not remember purchasing, along with things appearing in my apartment that i don't know where they came from and also things disappearing that i have no clue what i did with them. (talk about a run-on sent.).
I also get phone return phone calls from people i don't remember calling and this is embarrassing for us as quite often i have no recollection of what they're talking about and it is sometimes very hard to "hide this" from the person we talked to when i wasn't myself.
Just this morning i woke up to find ET receipts on the kitchen table to the tune of over $100.00. Don't remember going and buying the stuff. It really stinks because i'm on disability and now i'm gonna be broke for the rest of the month unless i sell some beadwork.
So, you definitely are not the only one experiencing this and it even sounds like we're both in about the same place regarding understanding how our respective systems work, etc.
It is very frustrating for us but we're learning not to stress out about it because it don't change anything and just makes me more stressed than i need to be. Life is definitely too short to worry about stuff that i've already done and can't change. Oh, and yeah, the financial complications this presents seem to be some of the hardest to "fix" when myself is back
If you need a safe hand to hold mine is reaching out to you and\or if you need a safe place to vent know that i'm always here to help you get over the rough spots and that i'm only a pm away if need be. I do care, and my prayers and thoughts are with you, beadlady29
