I am just having a hard time right now. One of the others hit a teenager on a bike with our car. I know he didn't mean to do it but it happened. The teenager is ok and refused to go to the hospital. It was an accident but I can't stop crying. It wasn't me that was hit but I feel really horrible. I guess I just needed to get that out and ask for a little support. Is it horrible of me that one of my others caused an accident but I am asking for support for myself? With all the other stuff I am dealing with, this was just one more thing that I don't know what to do about. I just don't know how to deal with this...

Oh hun, he didn't mean to, its okay. I believe its always good to reach out for support, its a good thing. That must have been sooo scary. Of course you would need support! Taking about stuff and reaching out always helps me at least a little and sometimes a lot. I hope that you feel better soon....Kasva

It may have been an alter state who was in control, but it still happened to the whole self. It's okay to cry and let those feelings out. I imagine there's a lot of shock, guilt, etc to work through. All natural feelings to have under the circumstances, even though it was an accident. I certainly know that if I cause accidental harm to another person I feel awful about it too.
Your feeling sare what they are - it's okay to have them, and it doesn't mean you're an awful, bad person. There was an accident and it hurts. You don't have to 'do' anything, but feel those feelings and let them work themselves out.
Thanks for this!

Justdontknow, I am so sorry.I know this is scarey.I am glad the teen is ok. It is quite scarey dealing with alters and driving.
i can somewhat relate. I have a few teen alts and one took over while I was driving. I do not know if they were realy trying to kill us all or if it was a joy-ride gone bad, but they split as soon as we got into trouble and I was back out in a busy intersection, going 55mph in cross traffic. An 18 wheeler was lined up with the cab of my truck and hitting his breaks hard....he was less than one car length from us. All I could do was floor it, to get out of the way. I was in terrible shape, emotionally, afterwards.
Many safe hugs and please be safe....
This happened before I was aware of the DID...I did not know what happened at the time and still do not know which one did it.

It's definitely okay to ask for support because it's all you, even with the separation. I'm so sorry that it happened and I'm so glad the person on the bike is okay. Taking responsibility for things our other parts do is part of the process. Be gentle with yourself during this time. We are here to support you.
