Has anyone here done the full test with a T with different alters to figure out how the different alters think?

WePow,

We have never done this test before, but I can tell you that when it comes to morality many of us a very different. Our counselor has called some of us amoral because of the severe lack of remorse or knowledge that what they are doing is wrong. I would expect that one's answers will differ at least slightly if not a lot. It would be interesting to see each one's answers on the test. I once thought about the same thing with IQ. But no real way to test that in a controlled environment with the actual tests like the WAIS and the WISC. Let me know if you ever get to do this with your T.

Faith
Thanks for this!

Ive never heard of this test. I have never taken this test. But I have had the situation where alters answer questions differently than I would on tests all through my school years, and when people as me questions, It never bothered me because up until I entered therapy I considered each of my alters separate from my. they were not me so it stands to reason they would answer differently than me. my logic them was my best friend Anette and I had different views on life so why shouldn't my alters too. It was during therapy my therapist told me how diverse my alters were on their belief systems, their way of life, their mannerisms everything about them was just a bit different than my belief system, my way of life, my mannerisms everything. It took a long time for my alters and I to learn how to communicate, compromise and work together as a team and eventually become one person. Now that Im integrated those belief systems, ways of life, mannerisms, way of life everything is a part of me. At first I was scared at the idea that their ways of being was going to be my ways of being too but my therapist showed me that everybody has many different ways to be given the different circumstances in their life. She used herself as an example saying when she's at home being mother, she portrays one set of belief systems, way of life, mannerisms around her children, she wouldn't talk and behave and believe her husband should be treated, talked to, taken care of, the same way as her children. I laughed at that idea her saying to her husband "Do we share our toys or are we being selfish today?" in the voice and facial expressions she uses for her 3yr old daughter . She said everyone is a mix of all their beliefs, mannerisms and ways of life. DID people got their different ways of being, belief systems and mannerisms separated. After I integrated I was so surprised on how easy it was for me to automatically slip into the belief systems, ways of life and mannerisms that used to be separate and so different from me.

if you talk to your therapist they will help you understand why and how your alters have come to have their own belief systems so vastly different than yours.
Thanks for this!

((((Wepow)))) each one of our parts will be different in many ways. It not until the blinding takes place that alters will start being more cohesive with each other. When we first started to know each other we as a whole agred as long as the body was kept safe not to interfere with each other. For us we had been inprisioned and did not want to live under any rules that reminded us of the pain. but as we started to heal and grow our choices changed and we growed together not because we were forced to but the simple fact is that we had learned to feel safe and secure with each other. To say ours was a gentle blending, Not always. But because we learned to be safe with each other we also learned to be safe with those outside of our selves. That was when we learned to accept those around us until those have chosen to be untrust worthy. Have faith in your self.

WePow,

cool

Not yet. We tried to open up but was unable to. Sounds kinda interesting though. Might help determine some boundaries.
