Hmmm. I've never heard of a system map.
Care to explain? It sounds interesting and then maybe I could offer some assistance. |

We have done a system map.
It basically just helps you get to know your system. you write down your insiders names, ages, and anything that is desired to be known. you can even make an announcement inside that this is what needs to be done, and when people come out they can write their own part (that's how we did it)... that way you may learn things about your insiders that you didn't know, because it is coming from them. Hope that helps! Good luck! __________________ It is a miracle that I have survived thus far and I strive to help others see miracles in every day life.

Names, ages, dates and events is where I find is the place to start.

system map is making a family tree of your alters.. mine has these things on it (keep in mind I was in treatment for years and this represents years of working on my DID and my final destination was where I am now living as an integrated person) - whos is charge the protectors the helpers the treasurer or banker the cook the baby sitter the maid the ones that worked outside the home and what their jobs were alters names their ages jobs type or personality (happy sad creative angry curious shy outgoing) things they liked things they hated how the separating happened (who sprang from who is another way to put it) what their symptoms if dissociating were what their triggers were there was more on mine than whats here but this will get you started thinking on how your system is comprised.

we have also already done a system map. it was quite some time ago, so mucvh that dont remember exactly when.
but ours was pretty much like the ones these other two posters described. we got 'started' by writeing down the name of our host & those names that she is familiar with, along with their job. the rest of them just kinda seemed ta come from outta nowhere. lookingfarainbows |

Should I attempt this if I don't actually know that much? Like..I know a lot of names/numbers (some groups go by numbers not names) and maybe some characteristics but I'm at a loss at to where they come from, or who they split from...

Violet, as you accept them and try to communicate, they will open up and give you the information you need....
 . Resistance and rejection will make them hide faster than anything else....at least in my case.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
