My T asked me last night if we could set aside a half hour for all the pieces inside could talk to each other about an issue that's going on. A few years ago we set up a place where the pieces could go inside. But we have never asked everyone to go in there at the same time. How do you set up a meeting for everyone inside??? Not sure I can do this or not.

I don't set up meetings like t his. what I do is write out the situation on a few different pieces of paper and leave them around the house where I find drawings and journal entries and so on. then when I naturally end up triggered and dissociate if the resulting piece of memory contains information about the situation on the paper that paper gets filled in and I see it the next time I am aware.

Other ways I learn information about things is by using relaxation visualizations to enter my tunnel co consciousness area and then my therapist asks me questions and I answer her based on what memory is replaying.

I cant have physical tea parties, meetings and so on where me and my alters sit around a table and so on.

What I have done is pass the information around to whomever I can find and then have them tell whomever that they can find or know that I am not aware of. If it is alters that cannot be around one another we the room set up in sections so that they don't have to be around each other. We have even set it up in two different rooms and had tv's set up to do like a conference between the two rooms. It just depends on who all needs to be there and what.

My T asked me to do the same thing....we have a meeting room; with tables and chairs. .. we now have a room for them to go to when I am doing meetings with outside people and they all want to come out to be heard. .... in this room their is a TV, games, puzzles, coloring books and reading books for all ages. It works 90% of the time that they will all go there.

Monty Girl,

One of the things that I use with Byrd is to type out questions and let him type the answers. We end up with interesting conversations. Also, it ends up documented and that is a LOT easier to show someone than trying to remember what he was saying. :-)

I just open a word document or an Email and will start talking. Another person told me they send emails to their alters and that the alter would respond! :-)

Hi Monty,

My T had us create safe places inside, so when someone was feeling threatened by another they could go there, some interact, other do not choose to, and some are oblivious to the process, think I am someone in their head..our T had us draw the safe places that were choosen, it helped him see patterns in the drawings, one chose a box with huge locks on the inside that only he (alter) has the keys to, and it was nailed down to the ground, another chose a corner with a blanket over her head, and even I got to choose one and I chose a cave....

Eva..

What T wants us to do is kind of like what Eva talked about. We have a safe place that's set up. It's just getting everyone together for the meeting.
