One of my alters name is Gennoah she is the one that always put us on the spot. She is always making troubles that I need to respond to. Lately I am not feeling well plus she is giving me a hard time.

She is the one that respond to people in a badly matter, insulting them and I am am the one loosing friends.

All this is making me feel so down, I wish I could be co-conscious with her.
I need any advice you can give me. " I feel I am loosing my mind"

It sounds like Gennoah is angry and hurting or maybe trying to protect you. It's difficult to say over the internet. Many parts hold a great deal of the pain, it might be a good idea for you to let her express herself in some way. Be that through listening to music that she likes, or giving her some colouring to do or giving her the opportunity to write it down somehow. All these things can help and also talking it through with your T.

Keep us posted and let us know how you are.

((((((((((( genn and Gennoah ))))))))))))

I'll bet it can be really hard at times when Gennoah is angry and lashing out. I'm wondering if she is more active now because there is something she needs you to know?

Anger is very often used for protection, even in people who are not DID. I was an example of an angry person many years ago and it was all to keep people away. If I didn't let them close, they couldn't hurt me. It worked for a long time, until I almost lost my job on a couple of occasions because of my anger, until I realized that I had to face the reason for my anger and make some peace with it.

What helped me to calm my anger was to allow myself to feel it, to respond to it (safely), to validate it and from there I was able to work through it and begin to change my outlook and attitude about life and stuff.

Could it be that if you were able to connect with Gennoah and validate her anger, let her know that you realize she has a reason to be angry and that you thank her for trying to protect you and your system, that she may be able to calm a bit and be willing to work with you through those times when she is most angry?

I hope what I've said makes sense to you.

Definitely a good idea to speak with T about this. Let us know what T says ok and if you are able to help Gennoah at all.

((((((((((((((((((((((genn and Gennoah))))))))))))))))))) I think it is a great idea to talk to your t. Anger can be so difficult to deal with and hard to work through. I am thinking of you.
